Meet Donna. She's a natural blonde.

The Babes of Baywatch cobbles together footage from several Baywatch stars' Playboy appearances in videos and places Traci Bingham in the presenter's chair.

Whether they've appeared for years like Pammie or just for a season, the Baywatch cast line up thus: Kelly Monaco, Traci Bingham, Marliece Andrada, Erika Eleniak, Pamela Anderson, Donna D'Errico, Jenny McCarthy, Shannon Tweed, Karin Taylor, Heidi Mark, Lisa Boyle and Lisa Marie Scott. Each dances about for the camera - and that's about it.

What's surprising about some is that some of them are well into their 30s now - and as for Shannon Tweed, if I was interested I'd have more luck at a grab-a-granny night as she's pushing on a bit. Also, since the footage is up to ten years old, you can bet your bottom dollar that not many of them look as good these days.

Kelly Monaco - the body double. Nuff said.

The picture is fullscreen with no artifacts, although some shots are a little too soft-focused. The sound is Dolby Digital 2.0 (Dolby Surround) and is clear enough, but isn't used much.
