Cast of Baywatch and new Fox series Rescue: HI Surf
Summary Ahead of the network's planned Baywatch reboot, Fox has thrown its weight behind an eerily comparable series, releasing in the fall of this year. A remake of the original 1989 action drama about lifeguards who patrol the beaches of Los Angeles has been a long time in the making. Former Baywatch actor David Chokachi pitched a reboot for years, getting so far in pre-development stages as to have met with CBS and scouted locations for a TV revival.
Rescue: Hi-Surf Sounds Very Similar To Baywatch Rescue: HI-Surf Will Depict The Personal And Professional Lives Of Lifeguards Close How Fox will maintain such a kindred series to the Baywatch franchise, with a Baywatch remake materializing on the horizon, remains to be seen - but the network doesn't seem to be phased by any problems that may arise out of parallels.
According to Deadline, Fox has doubled down on its Rescue: HI-Surf commitment, picking up seven additional episodes for season 1 and securing a spot for the series to play after the 2025 Super Bowl. Immediately following Super Bowl LIX, a special episode of Rescue: HI-Surf will air in an opportunity Fox has not given to a scripted series in the last eight years.
Then again, Fox could surprise audiences with two equally entertaining lifeguard TV series that are different enough to draw interest and prompt audiences to take a chance on both. When more information about the Baywatch remake surfaces, its strengths against Rescue HI-Surf will be more easily identifiable. As of now, only a few details outside its general premise are available.
