Before They Were Stars: William Fichtner on “Baywatch”

You know an actor’s destined for bigger things when they go so far as to give a good performance on Baywatch. After all, Michelle Williams made her acting debut at the age of 13 by guest-starring on an episode of the show and went on to become a three-time Academy Award nominee. In 1989, William Fichtner had one of his earliest roles as an abusive drug dealer on an episode of Baywatch and he gives a much better performance than the show probably deserves.
