The show was canceled unexpectedly after the 3rd season due to a management change at FX Networks. According to Howard Stern, the show was the #1 show on FX at the time, but a new program director decided to pull the show without warning.
Because of Jaime Bergman's pregnancy during the third season, FX wanted another thin woman to play a lifeguard in order to keep male viewers. Amy Weber was hired. But Lisa Banes was fired.
Jaime Bergman's pregnancy was written into the storyline.
Despite the show being a parody of Baywatch (1989), former "Baywatch" cast member Angelica Bridges guest-starred in two episodes: "From Russia, With Johnson" (2.2) and "The Gay Team" (3.6).
