    Storyline

    • Trivia
      After meeting during the production of this show Ron Livingston and Rosemarie DeWitt began dating. After a three year relationship they were married on November 2nd, 2009.
    • Goofs
      The vast majority of the cases shown would not be handled by the FBI. Since they involve state-level crimes local law enforcement such as the LAPD would handle them. The LAPD was an early adopter of the SWAT program. A notable exception was in Partners in Crime (2006) when bank robbery was involved, as the FBI investigates bank robbery.
    • Quotes
      • Emily Lehman: Look, I can handle Doug, but with Steele in the room it'll be like trying to diffuse a bomb with a little gremlin on my shoulder pulling my hair.
      • Matt Flannery: Why is the gremlin pulling your hair?
      • Emily Lehman: Look, I could come up with a better metaphor...
