Anne Lockhart, who plays Dr. Quinn's sister in this episode, actually replaced Jane Seymour's character on Battlestar Galactica as the love interest for Apollo.
According to Joe Lando, there is a scene during the opening credits where Jane Seymour looks at him. The purplish crimson sky seen in the background was actually light from several brushfires in the surrounding hills.
Dr. Quinn wears an extremely low cut dress to present her medical papers to William. It is inappropriate for such a mission.
At the tea party, Dr. Quinn's neckline is very revealing and much lower than any of the necklines that her sisters are wearing.
This episode is the first to have a few different images in the introduction montages.
