* ActorAllusion
** With Harry Hamlin playing the character of an actor, Aaron Echolls, there would be the just so ever sly acknowledgment such as e.g. ClashOfTheTitans playing on a motel TV.
** Laura San Giacomo is dating Enrico Colantoni? Why does that sound [[JustShootMe so familiar?]]
** In-universe example: Trina wanted to play herself in the Aaron Echolls story. The studio wanted [[AmericanPie Tara Reid]]. Also doubles as a HilariousInHindsight moment.
** After running away, Duncan eventually ends up in Australia, where Teddy Dunn was born.
** In the season 4 preview, Bob Gunton plays [[TheShawshankRedemption a corrupt prison warden]].
* ActorSharedBackground: At the beginning of his trial, Aaron Echolls states that he has been voted People Magazines Sexiest Man Alive in 1987. The actor playing Aaron, Harry Hamlin, has been voted Sexiest Man Alive in 1987.
** Also, Harry Hamlin and Lisa Rinna, who play Logan's parents are married in RealLife.

** A positive example in TheMovie. During post-production, Warner Bros asked Rob Thomas to add a scene explaining why there was a class war in Neptune, which became [[spoiler:Keith interfering in a stop-and-frisk]]. The studio bankrolled this scene, as well as the pre-titles recap and introduction.
