* HappyEndingOverride: Mark's marriage at the end of the first season is broken up partway through the second, and season 2's couple drifts apart over the course of the third season. It's also implied that Annie's marriage from her (nonexistent) season didn't work out.



* TimeSkip: The finale of the first season includes a trailer for the next season to be titled "Burning Love: Hot For Teacher," starring [[spoiler: Annie]] as the new bachelorette choosing between prospective bachelors. The ''actual'' second season is the third in-universe and often refers back to the events of "Hot For Teacher," which was never actually produced.

Added DiffLines:

* UnInstallment:
** The in-universe "first season" doesn't actually exist. Aside from cameo appearances by its loving couple, little is revealed about it.
** "Hot For Teacher", the season between Mark's and Julie's in-universe, is also fictitious. Its events are often referenced in later seasons, but the season itself was never produced.
