The IRS is there because Cody never declared all that gold he found last season. In his defense he did just think it was chocolate coins and he just ate most of it.
Hobie jumping in and saying one of the worst line deliveries I've ever heard and some kid stealing Neely's sandwich might be my two new favorite Baywatching moments.
If this had been a few seasons ago, Eyebrows would've gotten stung by a lionfish while on a tandem bike ride with Mitch, and Summer would've gotten kidnapped the whole episode in a sequence that blatantly rips off Pulp Fiction.
I love the idea that Neely actually holds a signifigant grudge against that kid. And ruins the rest of his life completely off screen just because he ate her sandwich.
It was clumsy as hell, but I have to give Baywatch a smidge of credit for the "I can be a Black lifeguard too" plot. Black people in the US have largely been shut out of pool access in covert and overt ways - either by public pools being closed down rather than racially integrate, or redlining Black people out of nice neighborhoods that might have backyard pools. Oh, and also swim clubs that racially discriminate! (Remember that clip of Mr. Rogers and his African American postman dipping their feet into the same kiddie pool in 1980 or so? This is related to all that.) This lack of access has contributed to the dearth of swim lessons and general water safety education in African American communities, leading to the stereotype of Black people being unable to swim. But of course, like EVERYTHING ELSE in this country, it ties back into systemic racism not of their community's own making. So kudos, Baywatch, you managed to shoehorn an important message into B plot #10 of 13 in an episode made up entirely of B plots.
Adding onto that, _The Power Broker_ mentions how City Planner (and noted racist ass) Robert Moses was building public pools all over New York City, but very specifically not in Harlem, and insisted the pools be kept below a specific temperature because of an old belief that Blacks didn't like swimming in cold water. Sometimes the bigotry is almost laughably petty.
Of course watching this scene, what *I* was thinking was "Um...Jordan? She's following you around because *you're the only black person on the beach!* " That miiiiight be a sign that Baywatch needs to diversify more. I mean after all, a little blond girl on the beach is certainly not going to lack for a choice of "role models" here, that's for sure (don't pick Neely though!)
@@SwiftNimblefoot Well she seems to be a very "special" captain anyway ... less administrating Baywatch and more planning beauty contests and charity dating auctions 😁
I'll admit it, you totally got me with the whole "severed head in the trash can" line, when the camera panned over, it really did look real enough for television
Sitcom Clip Shows: "We are the best at turning leftovers into a meal" Baywatch episode "Scorcher": "Hold my scraps of food meant for the garbage disposal"
Oh its such a delight whenever I see Naya pop up in something. It makes me so happy to see her even though she's no longer with us. Made this slog of a meanwhile episode a little bit worth it.
Dang, Newmie made up a lot of graphic detail for a fake emergency to lure Caroline to the beach for her birthday. Not a simple "we need your help," he jumped straight to fire and children in danger. That's... alarming.
No, that part was real. Long in to the night, you could hear the family still screaming for help as the Baywatch team members started cutting Caroline's cake in giddy amusement.
At first, I thought the president visiting was going to be the framing device for a clip show like that episode of The Golden Girls where the secret service interviewed the “girls” about their pasts. I only mentioned this because the actor playing one of the agents was played by Timothy Stack, the guy who was the parody of Mitch Von Malibu in the show Son of the Beach.
You're really spoiling us Allison. Man, I'm upset how little screentime Neely is getting this season, this ep reminded me how much I miss her evil voice. For a sec I thought she was the one leaving severed heads in trash cans.
Please never stop making these. When you've reviewed every single episode, just start over and make new comments. XD Seriously, I cannot get enough of your content.
"Not on my birthday!" "Surprise!" "Yeeeaaahh!" I shouldn't be laughing this hard. But I can't stop laughing. I don't know why but your voiceovers slay me!
Plot #14: Eddie makes his big return to Baywatch beach, only to be immediately attacked by a group of rapid raccoons. Nobody notices or care. Plot #22: Garner and Lou Rawls foil the actual plot against the president, Kung-Fu fighting army of surf ninjas sent by LEIA (League of Evil but Incompetent Australians). Plot #68: Jill...is still shark food and not a real character.
Hahaha due to rewatching baywatch and baywatching (2nd run) episodes pop up in my feed randomly. I double checked the thumbnail thinking it was an old one. Literally jaw dropped with a gasp. So excited to watch this episode of b-watching! 😄
No lie, I think this might have been a really weird and serendipitous case of two of the most popular TV shows of the time (The Simpsons and Baywatch) doing episodes that were take-offs on "32 Short Films about Glenn Gould." Both "Scorcher" and the infamous "22 Short Films about Springfield" (aka: The one with Steamed Hams) both came out in 1996, and their inspiration came out in 1993. I do think Allison was right that they were also trying in vain to help pave the way for Baywatch: Nights somehow, but for real that's some... coincidence.
Ok the Caroline Birthday microplot (particularly the scenes by the tower) have been used in a number of promotion stills for both the show and this season in particular. After studying them, few questions stand out: 1) Where the hell is Donna? All the other main, in-the-credits, cast members are there (even the perpetually no-show CJ), and yet she's conspicuously absent. Was there some particular nasty Caroline-Donna beef that I somehow missed? Was that sub-plot #240 that somehow just got cut for time? Did Donna WANT to come but just got lost in the broom closet again, somehow ("Wow this elevator is sure taking long, lalalala....") 2) Why is Manny the only one not in uniform? Is he the only that gets a day off?
You know, plenty of these could fill out a whole episode, with a couple of rewrites...ah, wait, I see the problem, nevermind. I do enjoy the "Hail to the Chief" done with kazoos and sad trombones, it's useful for many occasions.
Three in one week idk if you’re speed running to the end or this was backed up ether way I don’t care keep them coming! For real this was awesome keep it up.
I know it's late, but happy birthday! We'll lie about a boating tragedy and get a bunch of busty women to pose on a tower to celebrate this belated event!
It says something that the title of the episode is purely about the weather and not a clever reference to one of the subplots. I don't think they've done that since like season 1.
Did you see that guuuuy?
“Shut up Hobes, go stay with your mom or under the pier. I have other kids who need help to deal with.” -🍔
That's George McFly.
I did😻
It’s like he was going to say car and they only did one take lol
The IRS is there because Cody never declared all that gold he found last season. In his defense he did just think it was chocolate coins and he just ate most of it.
I declare this canon
@@AllisonPregler Neely ate the rest of the coins
@@mathieuleader8601 Really? I would I sworn she would have horded them in her Dragon's Keep.
Somwhere, a LA Chuck E. Cheeses is dealing with a frustrated Cody wondering why these coins won't let him play skeeball like he wanted.
Cody: Happy Chaunnukah!
Hobie jumping in and saying one of the worst line deliveries I've ever heard and some kid stealing Neely's sandwich might be my two new favorite Baywatching moments.
That little boy that ate Neely's sandwich is so dead. She's going to use her dark witchcraft to turn him into an A&W cream soda.
He's going to turn into a sandwich like in that one episode of Upright Citizen's Brigade.
That "YYYEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAH" has me laughing so hard I hurt
My poor neighbors
@@AllisonPregler I laughed so much at it that I had to go back to find out what is happening in the next episode.
@@AllisonPregler Did you have to explain to Phelan what the Caroline screech was about?
This episode has a bit of "22 Short Stories about Springfield" energy about it. Someone should feed Mitch some steamed hams!
If only they'd cut to Mitch Buchannon PI!
If this had been a few seasons ago, Eyebrows would've gotten stung by a lionfish while on a tandem bike ride with Mitch, and Summer would've gotten kidnapped the whole episode in a sequence that blatantly rips off Pulp Fiction.
@@Iamafishproductions Eddie gets gum in his hair and Shauni sets him on fire trying to remove it.
The deluge of Baywatching episodes are one of very few bright points to an otherwise very, very dreary year so far. Thanks for continuing this series.
Agreed. It's nice to have some joy to look forward to!
If it helps, my year has been awful so far too. Started back in December though. I hope things get better for you soon.
I love the idea that Neely actually holds a signifigant grudge against that kid. And ruins the rest of his life completely off screen just because he ate her sandwich.

And thanks to this comment I learned about opera singer, actor and gay man Francois Clemmons. Thank you very much for this.
The more i see of Jordan, Manny and Captain Thomas the more I miss the rich and impactful character that was Jill.
I kept forgetting she is a captain because honestly she seems like a young supermodel... feels way too young to be a captain.
@@SwiftNimblefoot Well she seems to be a very "special" captain anyway ... less administrating Baywatch and more planning beauty contests and charity dating auctions 😁
I'll admit it, you totally got me with the whole "severed head in the trash can" line, when the camera panned over, it really did look real enough for television
But he's dead.
What have we done to deserve such a bounty these past few days?
Newmie is the real star of the show. He just rocks. 💪😎👑
Sitcom Clip Shows: "We are the best at turning leftovers into a meal"
Baywatch episode "Scorcher": "Hold my scraps of food meant for the garbage disposal"
She wasn't lying, Hobie really did just jump into the episode
Oh its such a delight whenever I see Naya pop up in something. It makes me so happy to see her even though she's no longer with us. Made this slog of a meanwhile episode a little bit worth it.
It's like a clip show episode without the clips
Dang, Newmie made up a lot of graphic detail for a fake emergency to lure Caroline to the beach for her birthday. Not a simple "we need your help," he jumped straight to fire and children in danger. That's... alarming.
Rule #1 of lying: When you lie, be specific.
No, that part was real. Long in to the night, you could hear the family still screaming for help as the Baywatch team members started cutting Caroline's cake in giddy amusement.

It's the sandwich that defeated the australian guy from season one!
YOUR NEELY VOICE IS THE BEST THING EVER!! Also we need more newmey!!
And now, after 3 hilarious episodes, Baywatching will return to it’s slumber for many moons. As it is, as it will always be.
It's been like Christmas the last few days with all these Baywatching episodes! Loving it.
It's like the more meandering Baywatch is, the funnier Baywatching is. Good job.
Cody: Taxes? But I've never been to Dallas!
RIP Naya :(
Newmie is the real hero of everything
Later on, when asked if he'd been in the episode, Shaggy said, "wasn't me."
"for him, it was Tuesday" I'm glad Newmie gets more feature episodes
Three *"Baywatching"* in a row. In one week. Man, I feel nice!
She's like "I so want to be done with it, here's another episode."
I signed up for Amazon Prime just so I could see the subtitles for CJ’s scene with the kid: -[MUMBLES WITH FROZEN MOUTH].
Please never stop making these. When you've reviewed every single episode, just start over and make new comments. XD Seriously, I cannot get enough of your content.
"Not on my birthday!"
"Surprise!"
"Yeeeaaahh!"
I shouldn't be laughing this hard. But I can't stop laughing. I don't know why but your voiceovers slay me!
Caroline's final YEAAAAAAH blew my eardrums out. But thank you for it.
oof that Naya Rivera cameo is kinda haunting in this context.
The "day after Thanksgiving" of episodes.
How is this somehow lazier than an actual clip show episode?
I'm always excited to see her joy in such campiness!!!!
My favourite Baywatching character is Neely. I only have to see her face and I can hear Allisons voice for her. Baywatchinestesia, if you will 😉
Plot #14: Eddie makes his big return to Baywatch beach, only to be immediately attacked by a group of rapid raccoons. Nobody notices or care.
Plot #22: Garner and Lou Rawls foil the actual plot against the president, Kung-Fu fighting army of surf ninjas sent by LEIA (League of Evil but Incompetent Australians).
Plot #68: Jill...is still shark food and not a real character.
Special Agent: Dudley Dawson...
Booger from Revenge of the Nerds?
Honestly, this review series brings me utter peace
Thanks for another baywatching, Allison!
More Baywatch is always a good thing
I started humming the launch music from Thunderbirds during the boat separation moment
The Trash Can Guru.
Caroline, don't tell Neely your birthday, that's almost as bad as telling her your true name!
Cody is seen by the government as capable of paying taxes. My suspension of disbelief goes nuts
Hot damn, 3 Baywatchings in as many days?? I am in paradise
So much Meanwhiling, I can’t deal
Yeah for more Baywatching! I could get used to daily Baywatching uploads
Hulu has a 90w documentary on their streaming service, they have a whole Baywatch episode....plus The Tommy Lee Pam Anderson show is out now too
Three Baywatching episode in a week? You spoil us, can of coke to you Allison!!!
What's going on?
3 episodes in quick succession?
You are spoiling us with this much delight!
Not that I'm complaining.
That kid is SO getting turned into a mouse thanks to the potion in his next sandwich, and then getting fed to a cat
sigh, just reminds me how clicking onto baywatch always felt like a fever dream 25 years ago
Poor Cody he thinks IRS stands for I really smart!
Hahaha due to rewatching baywatch and baywatching (2nd run) episodes pop up in my feed randomly. I double checked the thumbnail thinking it was an old one. Literally jaw dropped with a gasp. So excited to watch this episode of b-watching! 😄
Third say of Baywatching in a row? Is this a late Christmas present?
thank you for the fun, free content Allison
"Happy birthday, Princess Carolyn."
"Thanks phone..."
"You are... never going to be as popular as your sister."
*kettle noise intensifies*
3 Baywatchings in 3 days? You spoil us.
I really, really am glad I started watching through these finally. I am learning the glory that is Newmie.
As the Grand Archpriest of the Church of the Algorithm, I comment you to engage with this video.
No lie, I think this might have been a really weird and serendipitous case of two of the most popular TV shows of the time (The Simpsons and Baywatch) doing episodes that were take-offs on "32 Short Films about Glenn Gould." Both "Scorcher" and the infamous "22 Short Films about Springfield" (aka: The one with Steamed Hams) both came out in 1996, and their inspiration came out in 1993.

1) Where the hell is Donna? All the other main, in-the-credits, cast members are there (even the perpetually no-show CJ), and yet she's conspicuously absent. Was there some particular nasty Caroline-Donna beef that I somehow missed? Was that sub-plot #240 that somehow just got cut for time? Did Donna WANT to come but just got lost in the broom closet again, somehow ("Wow this elevator is sure taking long, lalalala....")
2) Why is Manny the only one not in uniform? Is he the only that gets a day off?
Manny isn’t a certified lifeguard yet; he’s still a junior lifeguard (because he’s seventeen lol). No idea if there’s a secret Donna/Caroline beef.
The A-plot is with its mother.
Your episodes never disappoint Allison.
3 Baywatching episodes in 3 days? But it's Caroline's birthday, not mine!
YEAAAAWWW!!!!!
Best Neely voice confirmed!
My assumption as to why Jeff Altman continues ti show up is because Buzz Buttkins isn't the only person who suffers from Face Blindness
6:25 - This cemented Caroline as my favourite Baywatching character. 🤣
Dang, 3rd vid this week? Keep 'em coming, Allison! Great content!
Why did they cut that sandwich like that?
Also, Sand Witch with a sandwich
Did they really use burning children as bait for a surprise birthday party!? rofl
YYYEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAH, more Baywatching!!!
So much Baywatching; I'm getting spoiled.
Love the intro!
I laughed mah butt off!!
Omg, these episodes are always so hilarious.
You RULE, Allison!
😆
Of course it would be Newmie that makes boat jet ski feature look awesome.
Holy shit! Thank you so much for making these
Dudley Dawson? That's Boogar's real name in revenge of the nerds. Baywatch steals from only the best.
Holy crap that was a good one.well done.
Bet the arrowverse saw baywatch nights do their detective to fantasy transition and said "we can do that, but better with plausability".
You know, plenty of these could fill out a whole episode, with a couple of rewrites...ah, wait, I see the problem, nevermind.
I do enjoy the "Hail to the Chief" done with kazoos and sad trombones, it's useful for many occasions.
That midi Baywatch theme at the end of the episode sounds so much like a kazoo.
Three in one week idk if you’re speed running to the end or this was backed up ether way I don’t care keep them coming! For real this was awesome keep it up.
Gena Lee Nolin is the Maleficent of Baywatch.
"You know that movie 'The Craft?' Well, Baywatch Nights is going to make 'The Crap!'"
So they're making Teen Sorcery? :P
Best birthday present yet! Thanks Allison 💓🏊♂️🏄♂️
Happy birthday!
I know it's late, but happy birthday! We'll lie about a boating tragedy and get a bunch of busty women to pose on a tower to celebrate this belated event!
I'm so glad to see a lot of Newmie in this otherwise nothing episode
Mitch just said "monster reghee stars" and i don't think i can finish the video
It says something that the title of the episode is purely about the weather and not a clever reference to one of the subplots. I don't think they've done that since like season 1.
Maybe it’s what the production team felt this episode was like 🌚
My Save again!!!
I gotta be honest ..I kinda want one of those saxophone shirts.
I don't know what's causing you to be so productive, but please and thank you!
Your Neely voice is magnificent!
It's -11 outside, needed this one.
