Both leads, Will Friedle and Elisabeth Harnois, have appeared in O Mundo é dos Jovens (1993), though their characters did not interact. Friedle was a series regular, portraying the main character Eric Matthews, the older brother of Cory Matthews, played by Ben Savage. Harnois had a guest appearance in The Last Temptation of Cory (1995), where she played Missy Robinson, a girl who kisses Cory while Topanga is sick.
In recent years, the film has garnered a cult following, primarily due to Hallie's mini-pink dress, which has a significant following on social media. This has led to various clothing designers crafting replicas of the dress online.

In a 2021 podcast interview, Elisabeth Harnois stated that she still had the pink mini dress from this film. She would later correct this statement in a 2023 interview, having discovered that she didn't actually have it after going through her belongings. That said, she did have a few other stuff from the film, specifically Hallie's formal blue dress.
When she first tried on pink mini-dress for the first time, actress Elisabeth Harnois found that she couldn't wear any undergarments due to how tight fitting it was on her body. To prevent any unintentional exposure, she made sure to be consciously aware of her whole body during filming. In an interview, she recalled how paranoid she was during the scene where Hallie is shooting pool at the biker bar, as she was worried that the dress would ride up when she had to lean over the table to make the shot.
