Trivia
Maura Tierney was originally cast as Sarah, but after filming the pilot, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. NBC pushed back the series to 2010 with the hopes that she could be treated and resume filming but she chose to drop out instead. Helen Hunt was courted for the role but she declined. Lauren Graham was then offered the part and she accepted it.

Goofs
In an early scene set on the youth baseball field, a front shot from behind the plate shows a left-handed pitcher delivering a pitch. In the next shot from the outfield, the pitcher finishing delivery of the pitch is right-handed.
