The 90s cult TV series that made adults and children dream, starting from the first notes of the "Save me" theme. baywatch_acrimoniamagazine2 Everyone remembers the rescue stories of the famous Lifeguards group in Los Angeles. But what was really impressed about this hot TV series? Certainly, the slow-moving Pamela Anderson races holding the red life buoy, the unlikely maritime accidents, the shots of David Hasselhoff and the heroic deeds of daily rescue. In addition to being a successful TV series, has won numerous awards, including the Spirit Awards, for spreading the culture of saving around the world, redefining forever the figure of the simple lifeguard. And not only, thanks to Baywatch some Californians were able to save people by imitating the techniques shown in the show. baywatch_acrimoniamagazine1 Riding on the nostalgic wave, in the summer of 2017 the remake of Baywatch, set on the beaches of Florida and directed by Seth Gordon, was released in cinemas.
