Beach Clash is a game show that aired in syndication from September 19, 1994, through September 17, 1995.[1] The show was hosted by David Hirsch and Alison Armitage. Teams of one male player, one female player, and two "hardbodies" competed in beach-themed events in an attempt to win the season's grand prize of $10,000 and a Hawaiian vacation.[1]
Reception[edit]
The Dallas Morning News's television critic Ed Bark penned a negative review of the show, writing, "These competitions, ranging from Hill Climb to Beach Bout, are strictly Dullsville" and said "Hirsch's commentary is an ultimate case study in making something of absolutely nothing", while "Armitage's principal contribution is to giggle at his attempts to be a hardbody in mind, if not body".[2] A.J. Jacobs of Entertainment Weekly said, "This T&A fest would make Aaron Spelling blush".[3] Ken Tucker of Entertainment Weekly stated, "After all, what are shows like American Gladiators and Beach Clash if not genially decadent versions of overbuffed Greek gods and goddesses bulging and sweating for the amusement of us rabble?"[4]
