  • This movie was made by Paramount Pictures despite the studio having no involvement in the original TV series, which is owned by FremantleMedia.
  • Pamela Anderson also performs a cameo at the very movie's end but, like the original Mitch Buchanon appearance, all is spoiled from the beginning since their names are listed at the initial credits.
  • During a fight sequence the theme song to the animated series SpongeBob SquarePants (1999) is heard. SpongeBob is owned by Nickelodeon and Viacom and the original actor from the original Baywatch (1989) David Hasselhoff guest stared as himself in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie (2004) released 14 years earlier.
  • USCG Helicopter 6551 is in a few scenes. This aircraft is an active duty USCG helicopter.
