* ActingForTwo: Creator/StephanieLeonidas is Helena and the Dark Princess. Creator/RobBrydon is Morris Campbell and the Prime Minister. Creator/GinaMcKee is Joanne Campbell, the White Queen, and the Dark Queen. Jason Barry is Valentine and his equivalent in the human world.
* DawsonCasting: The two main leads are supposed to be teenagers. Helen was played by 21 year old Stephanie Leonidas, and she played a 15-year-old. However, Valentine was played by 33 year old Jason Barry, and despite the portrayal, his age made him appear to be in his mid-twenties at earliest, making the sexual tension of the finale a bit uncomfortable for viewers.
* DevelopmentHell: Supposedly there were plans for a prequel in manga form that has yet to be published.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** Before it was decided that the Prime Minister of the White City should also be Helena's dad, they wanted to get Music/DavidBowie to do it, as an ActorAllusion to ''Film/{{Labyrinth}}''. Sadly, there were scheduling conflicts.
** Neil mentioned once he wanted to show Helena in school, but Dean vetoed that. Dean revealed that to do that, they'd need to hire a bunch of child actors and get wranglers, which would go past the budget.
