Both Adelaide Borghi-Mamo and Adelaide Phillips were internationally known, and performed operas by Giuseppe Verdi, the composer behind La traviata.[5]

  • On Jully 11, 2021, costume designer Jennifer Moeller explains how she took Emily’s creative passion to stylish new heights in season 2. Moeller reveals to Elle magazine that “I do always start with what's real—I research and look at real clothes—but this show gives you a lot of license to take liberties with period...I'm not trying to create a museum piece. I'm trying to have some fun..."[7]
  • On November 23, 2021, Alena Smith revealed that the reason that Austin is the only one who can see Emily when she was invisible was because at that point in the story Austin is the only one who appreciates Emily and her poetry for its own authentic sake, not for some fake sense of glamour/ status/ fame.[8] According to Alena, Sue couldn't only see Emily and only felt her.[9]
  • On December 12, 2021, Finn Jones said that one of the things that really drew him to the character of Sam Bowles was the fact that you never really know what his true intentions are. On one hand, he's seemingly this liberal, influential editor that wants to celebrate female, creative voices. But on the other hand, you're like: is he someone who's just out for his own success, and his own self-interest, whether that is commercial or sexual...It's a very pivotal scene within the season when you find out that both Sam and Sue have been having this sexual relationship behind everyone's backs. That's a big deal. It's a bomb for everyone. Moreover, Jones also went onto say that in I'm Nobody! Who Are You?, "I remember, it was cool doing that scene, because you're able to reveal another side of Sam when a camera isn't necessarily on him. It was interesting to pull back the curtain, if you will, to really see what Sam has been doing, and who Sam is. It's very revealing".[10]
  • On December 21, 2021, it was revealed that Martha Stewart is a fan of the show when she asked about the character Frederick Law Olmstead.[11]
