Aaron Spelling courted two big name actresses to join the show in hope to spike ratings: Joan Collins was intended to bring her Dynasty (1981) character of Alexis Carrington Colby to L.A. and Donna Mills was supposed to play the sister of Perry King's character Richard Williams. Due to the show's early cancellation these plans never materialized.
Michelle Phillips auditioned for the part of Gwen but lost to Victoria Principal
13 Episodes were made but NBC only aired 11 episodes and then canceled the series.
Not an instant hit but grabbing average ratings, NBC decided to move the show from Wednesdays to Mondays in the middle of its run. A lack of promotion resulted in decreased ratings and soon the show's cancellation.
In the original pilot, Samantha was played by Priscilla Garita instead of Lourdes Benedicto. Priscilla is known for starring in Sunset Beach as Gabi Martinez.
