The first time this episode aired, it scored fourth in its timeslot. This show usually does better than that, but FOX's American Idol and NBC's special re-airing of Friends probably stole most of 8 Simple Rules' audience.
This episode begins Jonathon Taylor Thomas' three-episode arc on the show as Jeremy, Bridget's study partner and potential love interest.
Starting with this episode David Spade joins the cast and is listed in the opening credits, rather than the ending credits as a special guest star.
Tape Date: Friday, 16th January 2004.
Re-aired: Tuesday, June 29, 2004 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
