The year before appearing in this, Teri Polo posed fully nude for Playboy to try and boost her career with higher profile roles. But it didn't help. In fact many of her friends felt it damaged it to the point where Polo had to file for bankruptcy years later. When asked afterward if she regretted posing for the magazine, Polo replied she didn't, saying, "It was one of the best experiences of my life. I'm very proud. We shouldn't be ashamed of the human body. The human body is beautiful, and it's a shame we put such a taboo on certain things. Why be ashamed? It's such a beautiful thing."
