'Celine Du Tertre' was originally cast as Allie, but during filming was replaced by Dakota Fanning.

The abduction stories and sightings featured in the mini-series are based upon accounts made from people over the many years of UFO believers.

The series takes place from August 1944 to December 2002.

Lubbock, Texas is portrayed as being hilly and wooded with lush meadows. Lubbock is very flat and has no indigenous trees, only shrubs (grassland is also scarce due to the small amounts of rain the region receives).

In the episode "God's Equation", Lisa is seen with an "alien head" tattoo on the back of her right shoulder. This completely disappears during her talk with Allie during the hostage situation at the encounter meeting.

When Dr. Wakeman is describing the reports of UFO sightings, he mentions one in Zanzibar. However, the light that shows up is on Madagascar.

Allison Clarke: My mom told me once that when you're afraid of something, what you want more than anything else is to make it go away. You want your life back to the way it was before you found out that there was something to be afraid of. You want to build a high wall and live your old life behind it. But nothing ever stays the same. That's not your old life at all. That's your new life with a wall around it. Your choice is not about going back to the way things were. Your choice is about hiding, or about going right to the heart of the thing that scares you.

Allison Clarke: When you're little, you like to think you know everything, but the last thing you really want is to know too much. What you really want is for grown-ups to make the world a safe place where dreams can come true and promises are never broken. And when you're little, it doesn't seem like a lot to ask.

Charlie Keys: No. You're not going to take me.
