BAYWATCH TURNS 10 YEARS OLD (SEPT. 22)

HONOLULU, Hawaii (Wireless Flash) -- How's this for making a big splash: "Baywatch" turns 10 on Wednesday (Sept. 22). The T&A swimsuit show barely lasted a year on NBC before being canceled. However, series star David Hasselhoff was able to revive it in syndication, where it became one of the most popular shows ever. Other "Baywatch" bits... -- Over the last 10 years, the show has used more than 5,000 swimsuits, 1000 surfboards, 450 gallons of sunscreen and 3000 pounds of body makeup. -- When Pam Anderson Lee was still on the show, she constantly kept the crew waiting while she had sex with hubby Tommy Lee in her dressing room. -- And, finally, former "Baywatch" babe Yasmine Bleeth says the worst part about doing the series was the way the cold water made her male co-stars' "things" shrivel up.
