 The role of "Abusive Husband" was originally going to be played by  George Isaacs. However, Andra Fuller had to leave the project and  this left an opening in the lead role. The producers first thought  was to call in an old friend, J. Darryl Williams, who had starred in  the original 6 min demo of the show. However, George was also  interested in the role. There was a mini casting session, and the  lead role was eventually awarded to George. J. Darryl then took  Georges role as "Abusive Husband".
