The title is based on the Broadway play "6 Rms Riv Vu" by Bob Randall which opened at the Helen Hayes Theater in New York on October 17, 1972 and ran for 247 performances.
An alternate title considered for this episode was "Keaton Towers," taken from Fawlty Towers (1975).
Jennifer (Tina Yothers) here wears the sweater made famous by Princess Diana---before she was married to Charles---a couple of years before, who wore it defiantly at a polo match, in 1980, to make a statement about her status as the black sheep of the royal family.
The abbreviations used in episode title is similar to an apartment listing:
- Rms - Rooms
- Riv - River
- Ocn - Ocean
- Vu - View
Two cast members from The Terminator (1984) appear in this episode: Earl Boen and Shawn Schepps.
