Line 6:
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]: "The Life You Save" features the Baywatch team facing a 25% budget cut, which would of course mean some of the lifeguards would be reduced to working part-time hours. This was in 1994. Watching the episode again today, in the midst of one of the worst financial crises ever, it's eerie how it's even MORE relevant.
* [[Memetic Outfit]]: Oh, those red lifeguard swimsuits and trunks. And that orange thing they always carry.
* [[Recycled Script]]: "The Incident" is more or less "Submersion" except with Caroline in Mitch's place, no [[MortonsMorton's Fork]], and with Caroline undergoing a temporary lifestyle and attitude change due to her guilt of being unaware that there were five people in trouble, not four.
* [[Seinfeld Is Unfunny]]: Its sexuality actually looks rather quaint and conservative these days.
* [[Unfortunate Implications]]:
Line 12:
** Plots [[Very Special Episode|advocating tolerance]] for the [[Wheelchair Woobie|disabled]]/[[Littlest Cancer Patient|sick]]/[[Fat Girl|overweight]] in a setting where the regular cast is [[Beauty Equals Goodness|cloyingly healthy and beautiful]].
* [[Viewer Gender Confusion]]: Joey from "Silent Night, Baywatch Night". Doesn't help that Joey is a gender neutral name.
* [[What an Idiot!]]: How Mitch didn't catch onto Gwen and Mattie being the same person (until it was too late) in "Mirror, Mirror" is beyond belief.
* [[Wheelchair Woobie]]: Jason in "Shattered".
