Steve Guttenberg was the last cast member interviewed. He provided so much information that producers decided that the narrative had to be rewritten and the documentary re-edited from scratch, to accommodate the three hours of content given by Guttenberg.
Marion Ramsey, Rene Auberjonois, Art Metrano and Paul Maslansky were interviewed for the documentary, but passed away before its release.
A year after the majority of the cast interviews were filmed, Steve Guttenberg was finally persuaded to participate by Adam F. Goldberg, after Adam gave Steve a recurring role on The Goldbergs.
Interviews were recorded with cast and crew in Los Angeles during the summer of 2018 & 2019.
Donovan Scott filmed home-movies during the filming of Loca academia de policía (1984). According to Steve Guttenberg in his biography, "The Guttenberg Bible", there is a "very funny, touching, and unreleased documentary that he made of the shoot." Some of this footage will be seen publicly for the first time in this documentary.
