This is the first episode to have the new opening credits after the attacks on the World Trade Center towers on Sept. 11th, 2001. The show's title was replaced with a different view of the Manhattan skyline, and the Empire State Building is shown (instead of the World Trade Center) when Sarah Jessica Parker's name is announced. This continued until the final episode, "An American Girl in Paris (Part Deux)" in 2004.
The scene where Samantha and Richard were dancing by the pool originally had a view of the twin towers. They were digitally removed so as not to distract from the scene.
Full frontal of James Remar can be seen as he jumps into the pool.
Trey mentions that his friend has tickets to "The Producers", the musical that starred Matthew Broderick, Sarah Jessica Parker's husband.
