What do you get when you pair the scenery of Hawai'i's beaches with the lifeguards who man them? Maybe the best season of Court TV's "Beach Patrol," which premieres at 8 p.m. Monday. The network filmed nine episodes in Hawai'i this year featuring city lifeguards doing everything from responding to medical calls to working the memorial service for legendary entertainer Don Ho in Waikiki. Honolulu is the third city to be featured in this reality TV program. "Beach Patrol" has also filmed in San Diego and Miami Beach. For more information, visit www.courttv.com.
