Fran Drescher had already appeared in this series once before, as a different character---Mona's potential apartment decorator in season 1. She would, of course, go on to star in a sort of re-imagining of this show, with her being "the hired help" working for a wealthy man in The Nanny. She was already dressed to the nines here, looking gorgeous in a dusty green shirt-dress with matching headband and oversized silvertone disc earrings and bangle. Sadly, this charming backdoor pilot was not picked up as new series co-starring her and the blonde photographer, with whom she shared tremendous chemistry.
This is the final episode in which the original theme song is played.
As of August 2022, this is the lowest rated episode of the series.
Coincidence, Alyssa Milano would star in Charmed.
