Comparison between the TV broadcast on German TV station Nitro on 29.04.2019 (16:10 / international HD master) and the German DVD (featuring the original version) by Kinowelt (FSK 12)
In the comparison of the pilot episode, we have already summarized everything about the problems with the HD remastering of Baywatch, which is different in songs and also censored in nude scenes, at least right at the beginning. Episode 1x23 (The End?) uses various SD shots from the earthquake episodes at one point and apparently no suitable HD replacement was found for it. Without further ado, some TV channel insertions were added in the upper left corner of the HD master, so that the viewer gets a context for the lower quality. But in the further course of the episode there are also further SD moments without these channel insertions in the HD master. Apart from that, there are only some filler shots that differ from the usual ones here and there. Two last remarks:
As usual, the opening credits deviate and the credits afterwards were also revised. Not included in cut duration/quantity.
HD version 28.8 sec longer Alternative 07:27-07:31 / 07:16-07:20 Another boat on the water. No time difference
Alternative 12:14-12:49 / 12:15-12:51 The television channel insertions are only available with the HD master. By the way, they are only available in SD in the HD master, too, or probably they wanted to justify the lower quality with the insertions. No time difference
Alternative 24:33-24:35 / 25:05-25:07 A shot of the boulders in the water was mirrored. No time difference
Alternative 41:17-41:19 / 42:30-42:32 As Mitch looks down, the water shot has been replaced. No time difference
