Critics Consensus

Son of the Beach may be overtly vulgar and goofy, but the satirical sitcom does an excellent job lampooning Baywatch.

Son of the Beach is a loose, louche parody of Baywatch, and it's actually very funny sometimes. Go to Full Review

Tom Jicha South Florida Sun-Sentinel 10/03/2019
Son of the Beach is exactly the type of show you'd expect from Howard Stern. It's racy, raucous, raunchy and ridiculous. If those things don't rile you, it's also riotously funny. Go to Full Review

7/10
The show may be silly, low budget, gross, offensive, but it doesn't take itself seriously at all while delivering some good laughs from time to time. Go to Full Review
