Yusuf Gatewood was originally cast as the male lead. He was replaced by Justin Cornwell. Ironically, both actors would go on to appear on The Umbrella Academy (2019).
This attracted the show's biggest audience in its initial run, with a total of 3.65 million viewers.
Although set in Los Angeles, the series was shot in Vancouver. To counteract the difference in light and temperature, the production put an orange filter over its scenes to make it look warmer but the studio was still unconvinced that it looked like Los Angeles. Subsequently, the series was rewritten to be set in Seattle.
