Paradise Beach
Encyclopedia : P : PA : PAR : Paradise Beach
Paradise Beach was a short-lived Australian television series made by Village Roadshow in association with New World International for the Nine Network between 1993 and 1994.
The series was set on Queensland's Gold Coast and was a youth-oriented series filmed largely on location. Paradise Beach was intended not only as a rival to Australian soaps Neighbours and Home And Away but also to be the first breakthrough Australian soap to make it in America. However, the series was largely savaged by the critics - with negative comparisons to the American shows Baywatch and Beverly Hills 90210 - and failed to make an impression. After the series ended, Jaason Simmons joined the cast of Baywatch the following year.
