As a gamer who grew up in the 90s, the nostalgia of seeing Baywatch back in the headlines is both thrilling and cringe-worthy. I remember watching those lifeguards run along the beach every week, with their perfectly tanned physiques and the occasional drama. The recent revelation about Jeremy Jackson’s antics on set, as shared in the After Baywatch docuseries, is a perfect example of why puberty can be a living nightmare.
The upcoming 2024 TV lineup has gained a bit more excitement with the announcement of the Carmen Electra-teased “After Baywatch” docuseries on ABC News/Hulu. Already, it’s revealed some intriguing tales from behind the scenes, with one of the most surprising being the story about Jeremy Jackson reportedly sniffing his female co-stars’ wet bathing suits. This revelation came as no shock to fellow “Baywatch” cast member Nicole Eggert.
Jeremy Jackson’s ‘Dirty’ Admission From His Baywatch Past
Following the fourth episode titled “Almost Famous” on Baywatch, both Jeremy Jackson and Nicole Eggert recall anecdotes from their days as young actors on the popular show. In this latest Hulu release, Jackson’s memories, particularly one story, are highlighted:
They’d undoubtedly make fun of me, perhaps taking a sneaky peek or two. However, I wasn’t old enough to engage in anything romantic with them, as I mentioned, I just wanted to grow up. I was essentially saying, ‘Be patient!’… I often secretly followed them into their trailers once they were done, and would take their soiled swimsuits. To put it delicately, I’ve caught a whiff of every Baywatch cast member’s personal scent. Nicole, without a doubt, was the standout. We had an incredibly private encounter, something she wasn’t aware of.
It’s clear that Jeremy Jackson’s telling of the story comes across as somewhat unsettling. This is surprising given that, according to other Baywatch cast members in this documentary, going through puberty on a show like this seems like an absolute nightmare. Both Eggert and co-star David Chokachi have made comments about this harsh reality.
However, as the “French Kiss” singer shared further along in After Baywatch: A Moment In The Sun, his admiration for Nicole Eggert did surpass this physical attraction. Here’s how Jeremy Jackson further explained those feelings:
Nicole was someone I admired greatly. Despite arriving late at work without any apparent concern, she had a carefree attitude and wasn’t afraid to express it openly, saying things like “I don’t give a damn.” It always left me surprised, as I would respond with something like, “What?”
The story becomes quite intricate, indeed, when “After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun” explored Jeremy Jackson’s profound challenges with child stardom and substance abuse. However, Eggert adds a touch of levity to the narrative as she openly expressed not being shocked by these issues, and even offered a heartfelt compliment towards Jackson.
Why Nicole Eggert Was Not Surprised By Her Baywatch Co-star’s Remarks
Nicole Eggert’s frank comments after Baywatch mirror the “couldn’t care less” attitude that Jeremy Jackson mentioned. In response to this alleged Baywatch revelation, her reaction was filled with laughter, smiles, and a touch of sweetness as she expressed herself in these words:
I’ve known Jeremy quite well, and it doesn’t catch me off guard in the least. In fact, nothing he could tell me would surprise or alarm me. And let me tell you, even when I think back to 14-year-old Jeremy, I don’t hold it against him. After all, he was going through puberty on a show like that! I have to admire the honesty of grown-up Jeremy in acknowledging his past self.
To put it simply, the story concludes in a pleasant and heartwarming manner. There’s no malice involved, just camaraderie born out of an amusing yet somewhat inappropriate tale. On another note, with Fox’s new adaptation of Baywatch on the horizon, you can expect a heightened focus on security measures to adapt to today’s ever-changing world, given that it was a different era that originally propelled this long-running series to fame.
Let’s be patient and find out what the future holds for this series of surf and sand. If you’re interested in watching “After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun”, you can stream all four episodes by subscribing to Hulu, while the entire classic series is available on several other platforms such as Prime Video.
