When Malcolm resets his side of the chess board, he incorrectly places some of the pieces (i.e., the bishop and queen are switched around).
Josh Lawson was originally cast in the role of Dave Johnson. When the series was picked up, Max Greenfield took on the role.
With 8.10 million viewers, this was the most watched episode in Season 1.
The original title for the sitcom was "Here Comes the Neighborhood". When the series was greenlit, it changed its name to "Welcome to the Neighborhood" before shortening its title even more to its current name.
