The storyline...
Senior L.A. County Lifeguard Mitch Buchannon (David Hasselhoff),
has been patrolling the beach for over twenty years. When his
friend, Police Sergeant Garner Ellerbee (Gregory Alan-Williams),
approaches Mitch with the news he is becoming a private
detective, Mitch decides to help him out and invest in the
agency. As it turns out, the duo get more than they bargained
for...the sultry Ryan McBride, who ran the agency for it's former
owner, the mysterious (and slightly shady) SHAW. Ryan quickly
informs the new owners that she has no intentions of giving up
her stake in the agency, and Mitch and Garner reluctantly welcome
her aboard. Also joining the team, although not in an official
capacity, is Garner's old friend and mentor Lou (Lou Rawls), who
runs the blues club "Nights", the defacto headquarters for the
group of private eyes.
Things are different on Nights...
While Baywatch focuses on stories that involve the day to day
life of L.A.County lifeguards, Baywatch Nights explores the
uncharted territory of Los Angeles' larger beach community, a
community that changes at night. From Laguna to Zuma, Venice to
Malibu, the beach neighborhoods thrive with a vibrancy and energy
unknown to rest of the world. It is a world rife with glamour,
money, hot music and sensuality. It is also a world filled with
contrasts - from the mansions that dot the palisades, to the
trailer parks clustered near the beach; from the young and
glittering money crowds to the poor struggling immigrant; from
environmental crusaders to vicious criminals with no regard for
human life.
Action, Romance and Comedy...
Baywatch Nights appeals to an audience hungry for action,
romance and comedy, all set against the backdrop of gorgeous
Southern California. The storylines will focus on the
relationship between Mitch, Garner and Ryan during the day and
after-hours, their new-found careers as private detectives, and
the compelling cases that they investigate. Baywatch Nights will
take the successful elements audiences love in Baywatch, and add
to them a sense of mystery, heroics and glamour that only the
beach can have...
after dark.
"...the beach takes on a whole different personality after the
sun goes down. Bathing suits come off - hot, sexy clothes go on.
Everyone tries to end the perfect beach day with the perfect
beach night..."
