• Portmanteau Couple Name
  • Emma/Alex:
    • Emex from Brent Bailey's Instragram
    • Knighthouse from a YouTube comment
  • Harriet/Martin: Marriet, Smitten, and Hartin. Even Dayeanne Hutton and James Brent Issacs, who play Harriet and Martin respectively, couldn't make up their mind on which name they preferred.
  • Caroline Lee and James Elton: Carlton
• Romance on the Set: As confirmed on Twitter, Joanna Sotomura and Brent Bailey started dating while shooting the original show.
  • Working with the Ex: However, as of the revival, they had separated.
• Throw It In!:
  • The slap fight between Emma and Izzy was one of those, improvised by Joanna Sotomura.
  • Alex's pout at the end of Episode 44 too.
• What Could Have Been: Bernie Su really wanted a black or Hispanic actor to play James Elton to reflect the California setting. Paul Stuart turned out to be the only good choice of everyone they saw.
