As questionable as some parts of the show have become with age, there's no denying that "Baywatch" owned the 1990s. Because of its status during its heyday, many talented actors who became stars appeared on the series over the years. Some of them are arguably even more surprising than Michelle Williams.
Bryan Cranston was already a veteran journeyman actor when he appeared on the "Baywatch" Season 1 episode "Cruise Ship" as Captain Tom Logan, but still over a decade away from his first breakaway success as Hal Wilkerson on "Malcolm in the Middle" — let alone his career-defining role as Walter White on "Breaking Bad." There's also "The Matrix" star Carrie-Anne Moss, who played twins on the Season 4 episode "Mirror, Mirror." Mila Kunis appeared as Annie in Season 5 and played Bonnie in Season 6. Even Mariska Hargitay, who rose to fame in the decidedly un-"Baywatch"-like role of Olivia Benson in "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit," turned up as Lisa Peters in Season 1.
As these various appearances by future superstars show, Williams is by no means alone with her "Baywatch" past — and her charming 1993 cameo serves as a fun way for fans to remember where the A-lister started her stellar career.
