Trivia[]
- The adult franchise in the show is loosely derived from the real franchise Girls Gone Wild, rife with scandals all the way to its host.
- This was Beau Randolph's second appearance, he previously appeared in the season 4 episode "Head Case".
- In this episode, Castle expresses concern about Alexis doing her own personal vlog (her video blog) and revealing personal information, warning her of the potential dangers it may bring. Sadly, this point proves true several episodes later in "Target".
- Usually, Castle and Alexis's disagreements are resolved within one episode. This is the one time when this episode's issue is revisited in later episodes of "Target" and "Hunt".
- The victim in this episode, Beau Randolph, has a lot in common with the victim of the Season 2 episode "Food to Die For", Balthazar Wolf. They were both orphans and bad boy celebrities (of different careers), and ultimately changed their ways when they found out they were going to be fathers.
