Philip Baker Hall appears uncredited as Harrison Fowler. Among his many acting credits, one of Hall's most memorable roles was that of Lt. Joe Bookman, the library detective, in "Seinfeld."
This episode has an extended opening sequence that ads shots of each character interacting with Benson. Rather than re-editing the opening theme song a new orchestration, heard only in this episode, was created. The range of notes has also been altered.
