''Actually, I like [Baywatch] very much. I know it gets a lot of flack, but I actually think it's a very good entertainment show, and it doesn't pretend to be anything more than that. I like that there are good parts for women, which is unusual in a lot of television and movies, and I like that [David] Hasselhoff plays a single dad. So I think there are a lot of positive messages.'' — Former Baywatch babe Alexandra Paul on America Online

''I auditioned for Melrose two years ago. Didn't get it. Then three days later, [executive producer] Frank South called me and said he wanted me to audition for a series regular. I said, 'Show me the money!' And, of course, didn't get it!'' — Melrose Place's Brooke Langton (Samantha) on Prodigy

''I feel Hollywood in general is so far off the mark [about]what's appropriate for children and families to see that it will take an act of God and an outsider to get it back on track.'' — Singer-actor John Schneider (The Dukes of Hazzard: Reunion!) on AOL

''I would seriously question whether anybody is really foolish enough to really say what they mean. Sometimes I think that civilization as we know it would kind of break down if we all were completely honest.'' — Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery's Elizabeth Hurley on TNT's Rough Cut (www.roughcut.com)
