The same story that Sam Elliott went through in the movie Lifeguard, also about an aged lifeguard too old for the job but who cannot stop wanting to be one, that fits David Hasselhoff not Parker Stevenson, the latter a part-time lawyer and Mitch's co-star only for the first season on NBC; but Stevenson was to Elliott in that 1970's movie what the young lifeguards are to Mitch, and, this isn't so bad, really, a beginning of a different show altogether, however, than the Babewatch that became famous in syndication.
