* DawsonCasting: Averted, with the exception of Gallo being 25 all of the characters playing 18-19 year olds were between 18-22 years old, some fresh out of high school themselves and out of their parents house. Gallo herself manages to pull it off being very youthful looking. In fact Jason Segel was supposed to be about 7 years older than Gallo, but he was 5 years younger.

* MissingEpisode:
** The second episode had a major subplot with Steven and Lizzie change to an outdoor movie showing instead of a Music/TedNugent lecture because the network felt it didn't flow very well with the episode and the budding relationship. (They may have also had political concerns.)
** A later episode was kept from airing. It focused on Steven getting religion and Lloyd getting depressed about faith after a philosophy class. It really wasn't all that controversial and became more infamous for being a missing episode than what it actually talked about.
* ScrewedByTheNetwork: FOX aired several episodes out of order, resulting in inconsistent relationships from one episode to the other. Steven would finally get together with Lizzie and the following episode she would still be with Eric. Same thing with Ron who spent an episode trying to woo a girl, an episode where Ron is still struggling with dating and then they are together again.
* ThrowItIn: {{Improv}} throughout the series gave it a very relaxed and realistic feel.
