Trivia

Canceled after 6 shows. The remaining 8 shows aired the next year in a late-night timeslot opposite "The Tonight Show" during the Christmas holidays.

Aaron Spelling blamed the show's failure on original Producer Lynn Loring and revamped the show while it was still in production, which also led to changes in casting and eventual cancellation by ABC.

Slated to be a contender by ABC to go up against CBS' successful mystery series "Simon & Simon" and NBC's comedy lineup of "Night Court" and "Cheers" on Thursday nights.

Jazz legend and Academy Award Nominee Lalo Schifrin wrote the series theme music which sounded slightly similar to Academy Award and Grammy Winner Henry Mancini's regal theme to Arthur Hailey's "Hotel", which was also produced by Aaron Spelling and was in its second season on ABC, but Schifrin's theme has a more contemporary style, utilizing electric guitars and synthesizers as part of a rhythm section. This theme also loosely inspired his opening titles to the 1985 crime-thriller "The Mean Season" with a much-darker edge to the music.

The show originally had two different actors in the pilot. When the series was picked up by ABC, Dianne Kay and Christopher Mayer were the first set of replacement actors to be credited in opening credits of the original episodes that aired. Then when ABC pulled the plug momentarily, Melinda Culea and Dorian Harewood had already joined the cast and were given prominent billing during the opening credits.
