PRODUCTION

"Samatha and Vala have a couple of moments in an upcoming episode called 'Family Ties' so it would be nice to have a little bit character development there."
(Actress Claudia Black, in an interview with The Scifi World)

"We usually write the script first and then cast the role. In rare instances, we may hear an actor might be interested in the role, in which case we will write the part with him (or her) in mind. This was the case when Fred Willard played Vala's father in 'Family Ties.'"
(Executive producer Joseph Mallozzi, in a post at his blog)
