  • Actor-Shared Background: Katelyn Pippy plays hockey in real life, just like her character Emmalin.
  • Backed by the Pentagon: The Department of Defense lent Black Hawk helicopters and humvees used in production.
  • Directed by Cast Member: Brian McNamara directed two episodes, and a few webisodes too.
  • The Other Darrin:
    • Season 2 sees Caroline Day being replaced by Katelyn Pippy as Emmalin. Supposedly this was because they wanted a more classically trained actress to handle the more dramatic scenes.
    • TJ was played by Luke Bartleme in Seasons 1-4, and Connor Christie from Season 5 onward, due to the former's father moving away from South Carolina.
  • Real-Life Relative: Sterling K Brown and Ryan Michelle Bathe are married in real life.
  • Stillborn Franchise: A spin-off focusing on Pamela was announced, based on a fan poll over who would be most popular, and the episode "Murder in Charleston" was the Poorly Disguised Pilot for it. Lifetime however didn't pick it up.
  • What Could Have Been: Originally, it was to be a film adaptation, and it was pitched to ABC before Lifetime picked it up.
