[edit] Synopsis
The original premise of the show was that, during a midlife crisis, Sgt. Garner Ellerbee, who was the resident police officer of Baywatch since the beginning of the series, decides to quit his job as a police officer and form a detective agency. Mitch Buchannon, his friend from Baywatch, joins to support him and they are in turn joined by a detective named Ryan McBride. Singer Lou Rawls, who starred in the first season, performed the series theme song, "After the Sun Goes Down".
During Season 2, facing slipping ratings which were never as good as the original series, the producers decided to switch to a science fiction format (inspired by the success of The X-Files). Garner Ellerbee left the series and was replaced by Diamont Teague, a paranormal expert. The new format did not help the series and it was promptly canceled after the second season. The character Donna Marko, played by Donna D'Errico (regular cast member for season 2 only) was carried over to the original Baywatch series afterward.
