Kim Novak played Kit Marlowe, which was the pseudonym that Harry Cohn, CEO of Columbia Studios, suggested she should change her name to when she was a young starlet. Novak supplied the writers other inside jokes when they were naming Kit's aliases: Kit's real name is Susan Cameron, the name of Novak's agent during her time on the set. Another alias, Madeleine McKittrick, was a combination of the first name of one of her characters in Vertigo and the McKittrick hotel on Eddy Street in San Francisco where Vertigo's Maddy lived.

Sela Ward turned down the part of Terry Hartford in favor of a role on Emerald Point N.A.S. (1983).

Douglas Fairbanks Jr, Louis Jourdan, and Gregory Peck were all considered for the role of Peter Stavros. The role eventually went to Cesar Romero.

When Richard Channing takes control of his fathers newspaper he renames it The New San Francisco Globe. Throughout season 2 some establishing shots of the exterior of the building still show the original "The San Francisco Globe" sign.

Lance Cumson: You've destroyed our entire way of life.

Garth: Your office was completely destroyed.

Richard Channing Denault: Don't buy a new hat because I'm going to tear your head off!
