Back to the beach.
A four-part ABC News Studios docuseries about “Baywatch” will debut on Hulu later this month, featuring cast interviews and never-before-seen footage.
In the trailer for “After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun” that dropped Tuesday, Nicole Eggert, Carmen Electra, Bill Warlock, Gregory Alan Williams, David Chokachi, Alexandra Paul and more former cast members recount the highs and lows of working on the iconic lifeguard series.
“They just wanted to put you under a microscope and see where your flaws are,” said Chokachi, 56, who played Cody Madison.
“Everybody was disposable. And if you didn’t fit into their brand, you were gone,” added Warlock, 63, who played Eddie Kramer.
Williams, 68, said his role as Garner Ellerbee “empowered me. Every now and then it hurt me.”
‘But so do the people and the things we love,” Williams added, before getting emotional and telling the producers he needs “to take a break.”
Pamela Anderson, who became a worldwide star from her role as CJ Parker, is described in the trailer for as “an icon” and “a sweet girl from Canada who came to get the American dream.”
In a never-aired interview, Anderson, 57, said, “I’m really proud of everything I’ve done — almost.”
Electra, 52, also weighed in on becoming a “bombshell” as result of the show.
“It was a wild time and I was a wild chick,” she said in the trailer.
The docuseries, according to its logline, promises “a nostalgic and insightful exploration of ‘Baywatch,’ the cultural phenomenon that defined an era, and an unprecedented look into the stars who brought the world’s most famous lifeguards to life. Through dozens of new cast interviews and never-before-seen footage, this docuseries unpacks how the show captured the mythology of California’s beach culture, set physical beauty standards for an entire generation, and capitalized on the adage ‘sex sells.’”
“The series also unveils a never-aired interview with Pamela Anderson and over a decade’s worth of never-before-seen home videos shot by the cast themselves,” the logline adds. “These candid and intimate clips offer viewers a unique glimpse into the real dynamics, struggles, friendships and moments that happened off-camera. The series also explores the show’s impact on pop culture and its enduring legacy.”
OG star David Hasselhoff is not among the confirmed list of cast members who participated in the docuseries. He played Mitch Buchannon on the show.
“Baywatch” originally ran from 1989 to 1999. It was retooled as “Baywatch: Hawaii” with a major cast overhaul from 1999 to 2001.
The series spawned a spin-off, “Baywatch Nights,” and a 2017 feature film starring Dwayne Johnson, Zac Efron, Priyanka Chopra and Alexandra Daddario. Hasselhoff and Anderson both appeared in the film.
“After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun” premieres Aug, 28 on Hulu.
