Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Jack Wagner was starring on Melrose Place during filming, meaning he was literally playing a twin while pretending to be a good guy on another show.
This aired on NBC in 1997 when TV movies were dying out—it's a relic of that brief era when networks still tried theatrical concepts on small budgets.
