The main plot of a handsome successful man who discovers he has a young daughter that one day appears on his doorstep, forcing him to care for her, thus turning his life upside down, is very similar to the plot of the 2006 Polish romantic comedy Only Love Me and the 2006 Mike Lupica YA novel Miracle on 49th Street. Some similarities to the 2003 comedy What a Girl Wants are also present.

Trivia

Madison Pettis' character name is Peyton Kelly in reference to NFL Greats Peyton Manning and Jim Kelly.

Relations to the Disney Channel

When Peyton was watching TV, it showed The Suite Life of Zack and Cody. Also, during the basketball game, when the channel suddenly changed, it showed Disney Channel and Hannah Montana.
In the girls' store in the mall, Hannah Montana's The Best of Both Worlds and the Aly & AJ's version of Do You Believe in Magic? was playing in the back.
When the channel is suddenly changed it showed a quick clip of the original Disney Channel logo, then a clip of Disney's Movie Surfers.
ESPN (a Disney subsidiary) is shown as Kingman's station of choice, in contrast to Peyton's choice of the Disney Channel.
