Holy moly, will many Outposters teenage years flash before their eyes with this news! Baywatch was the most-watched TV show in the entire world in its heyday and let’s not even pretend we don’t know what.
This was before the internet, and that’s all you need to know, kids.
Well, now it is coming back exactly as intended, as a TV show. No more of this movie nonsense starring The Rock and bearing no relation to the slo-mo-tactic original.
We’ll be ready!
Fox has announced plans for a reboot of Baywatch by handing out a straight-to-series order for twelve episodes.
A whole new generation of amply qualified swimsuit fillers will now be vying for a position.
The project will have Burn Notice and The Gifted creator Matt Nix as showrunner. There has been a press release:
“Baywatch will feature adrenaline-fueled rescues, tangled relationships, complicated chemistry and beachside heroics that defined the original – now with an entirely new cast donning the show’s signature red swimsuits, contemporary trappings, tensions and challenges, and a renewed mission to protect Southern California’s shoreline.”
All we need to know is, will somebody wrestle an octopus while others run in lingering slo-mo? They’d better!
The show will debut at some stage during the 2026-2027 season with original show producers Michael Berk, Greg Bonann, and Doug Schwartz as Execs, alongside Dante Di Loreto.
