Line 15:
** [[Seinfeld|Babu Bhatt]] is one of the representatives of the Professional Butler's Association in "The Nanny, the Butler, the Wife and Her Mother".
** Danny Imperialli was played by Jonathan Penner, who placed seventh in the Cook Islands season of ''[[Survivor]]''.
* [[Mean Character, Nice Actor]]: Lauren Lane as C.C. Babcock.
* [[The Other Darrin]]: Maxwell's sister Jocelyn was played by actress/model Twiggy Lawson in "Stop the Wedding, I Want To Get Off", but played by Sophie Ward in all subsequent appearances.
* [[Reality Subtext]]: Twiggy Lawson playing Jocelyn, Maxwell's sister in "Stop the Wedding, I Want to Get Off" is a nod to the fact that the whole show was inspired by Fran Drescher's experience in taking care of her daughter.
** In "The Butler, the Husband, the Wife and Her Mother", Fran criticizes Maxwell for wearing bright yellow rain boots with his suit, saying "Normally, you're so GQ. Now, you're the Gorton's Fisherman?" Charles Shaughnessy, who plays Maxwell, had shown up to his original audition wearing those same exact boots.
* [[Real Life Relative]]: Joseph Bologna (Renée Taylor's husband) guest starred in two different episode, one as a [[Small Name, Big Ego]] actor and the second as a man wooing Sylvia.
** Chester the Pomeranian was Fran Drescher's real-life dog, which is why he was always so excited around her.
** Fran Drescher's real life parents Morty and Sylvia appeared on the show in several roles, later on as Uncle Stanley and Aunt Rose.
** Lester, Jocelyn's chauffeur in "Stop the Wedding, I Want to Get Off", was played by Twiggy Lawson's real-life husband Leigh Lawson.
* [[Unintentional Period Piece]]: Aside from the fashion sense (Maggie's babydoll dresses, especially), the earlier seasons made quite a few pop culture references to things like the O.J. Simpson trial and the Menendez Brothers that date the show to the Nineties.
* [[What Could Have Been]]: Originally, there were just two Sheffield children: Brighton and Gracie. The executives suggested that a shy teenaged daughter would serve as an amusing contrast with Fran, which eventually became Maggie.
