L'acteur Stephen Collins (Eric) a été reçu dans le journal de fin de soirée sur la Warner Bros, "The WB at ten", pour évoquer ces souvenirs au début de la série et au moment ou le pilote a été diffusé sur la chaine en 1996.

>> Extrait en VO :

"When I was offered the show my agent said to me, 'I think you're probably going to want to turn this down.' I asked why, and he said because it's on The WB, which had just launched six months earlier, if that. But I enjoyed the experience from the beginning.

"When you went to a reception for the national group of television critics at that time, it would be nine people in a small room with stale rumaki, and everybody thinking how can they get the hell out of there. Now the climate couldn't be more different. It's a hot ticket, with red carpets and starlets, executives, development people and agents."
"After shooting the pilot, I went down to the office to meet [The WB founder and CEO] Jamie Kellner. I remember he was in shirtsleeves. He brought me into his office and said, 'I really like this show, and I think you and I are going to be in business together for a long time.' People always say that, but he really seemed to mean it."
