Jackie Chan, a long-time friend of Sammo Kam-Bo Hung, appeared briefly as a background extra in an early episode.
After season two, CBS offered Sammo Kam-Bo Hung a third season, but Hung said he would not do it without a final say on scripts, claiming that the new screenwriter CBS assigned to the show for season two made him nothing but a fighting machine. An article in Black Belt Magazine mentioned that due to the two million dollar cost of production per episode, the show was cancelled.
Sammo Kam-Bo Hung's first starring role, as well as his first English-speaking role in an American production.
When trying to get information or help from someone, Louis often puts on an Australian accent, the native accent of actor Louis Mandylor. Sometimes when he is doing his regular American voice, you can hear his accent slip.
The cast faced turnover from the beginning. Detective Dana Dickson (Tammy Lauren) exited the show after season one, episode six, "Extreme Measures", as she moved away to "live with her parents" as noted on the following episode. Then on season one, episode nine, "How Sammo Got His Groove Back", Arsenio Hall joined the cast as Terrell Parker, a wisecracking former L.A.P.D. press liaison who began helping out Sammo and the gang on cases. The pairing of Hung and Hall as partners was similar to (albeit a bit less overtly comedic) the partnership between Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker in Rush Hour (1998). At the end of season one, episode five, "Cop Out", when Sammo Law is driving through Los Angeles, a sign is seen which advertises Rush Hour (1998), as the movie was released at the time of the episode. Tzi Ma, who portrayed Consul Han in Rush Hour (1998), guest starred as villain Lee Hei for six episodes on this show.
