Trivia / The Fosters

• The Cast Showoff:
  • Noah St. John is a real-life slam poet who wrote the piece he recited on the show.
  • Every time David Lambert sings or plays an instrument.
  • Cierra Ramirez' dancing.
• The Danza: Daphne is played by Daffany.
• Directed by Cast Member: Rob Morrow, who plays recurring character Will, directed the season two episode "Now Hear This", the season three episode "Minor Offenses", four season four episodes: "Potential Energy", "Safe", "Insult to Injury", and "Dream a Little Dream", and the season five episode "Sanctuary".
• Fake American: Maia Mitchell's Australian who plays an American girl.
• The Other Darrin: Jesus was played by Jake T. Austin in the first two seasons before being replaced by Noah Centineo starting from season 3.
  • Similarly, Lena's dad, Reverend Stuart Adams, was played by Stephen Collins in the first two seasons before being replaced by Bruce Davison in season 3. That recast is likely also a case of Role Ending No-Longer-Prosecuteable Felony. It occurred after the September 2014 revelation (which he would later admit to two months later) that Collins committed inappropriate sexual conduct with pre-teen/teenage girls between the early 1970s and late 1980s, practically ending his career in the process.
• Playing Against Type: Rosie O'Donnell, hard-edged battleaxe.
• Separated-at-Birth Casting: Maia Mitchell and Bailee Madison as half-sisters.
• Similarly Named Works: In no way to be confused with the 1970s ITV sitcom of the same name (which was the Transatlantic Equivalent of Good Times).
