Episode Notes |
| |
The planned casting of Allen was to feature him as a white male based on series creator Tom Lynch. When Arjay Smith tried out for the role, he won it after the first casting.
| The series faced minor controversy when it was previewed. Many had issues with a black boy being an alien from another planet.
| The novelization of this episode featured Allen explaining his race and where he came from. Robbie and Josh's mother is given more of a background story that was not included in the pilot. It also featured scenes not included in the pilot.

Josh
He states his mother is living in another state, however the novelization has her living in San Francisco. Also a scene with Robbie learning her mother can't pick her up because of a hospital emergency would imply that she couldn't live that far from Robbie.
