It’s been 25 years since the Baywatch TV show ended after its humongous 11-season run, and it’s been even longer than that since Pamela Anderson ran in slow-motion down Malibu Beach.

Spawning several spinoffs and even a 2017 film fronted by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Zac Efron, a new four-part documentary series titled After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun is taking fans back to the beach to spill the cast and crew’s dirty little secrets. 

The docuseries explores Baywatch as a cultural juggernaut, unpacking how its stars defined a generation of audiences and features dozens of new cast interviews, including with Nicole Eggert, Carmen Electra, David Hasselhoff, David Chokachi and Jeremy Jackson, plus never-before-seen footage.

After Baywatch looks at how its red swimwear-clad cast set beauty standards in the 90s and how the show got sex to sell. From Tommy Lee’s jealousy to Jeremy Jackson’s struggles with addiction and secret admission, to Gregory Allen Williams’ honest discussion about race and representation, all is revealed in the docuseries. Currently streaming in the US, here’s when and where you’ll be able to watch it in the UK.
