• Marilyn's last name, Sudor, means "sweat" in Spanish.
  
  

• 15 Episodes were made for the 4th season but only 13 episodes were originally aired. FOX canceled the show, but then aired the two remaining episodes early in 2005.
  
  
• The character of Lauren Davis was originally created with Lauren Holly in mind for the role; hence the first name.
  
  
• Although Chi McBride, Anthony Heald, and Loretta Devine appeared in every episode, McBride played Steven Harper more than the latter two. He reprised the role in 2005 on an episode of "Boston Legal". He hired James Spader for a case. The episode was written in a way that people who had never seen the previous show weren't missing any details.
