[edit] Production Notes

Watch Over Me was first intended to run as A Dangerous Love under the Secret Obsessions umbrella title. A Secret Obessions logo appeared in the show's opening credits -- and the MyNetworkTV Web site said that the serial was "part of the Secret Obsessions series."
MyNetworkTV had a special promotional deal with Wal-Mart, which provided wardrobe for the cast from the Metro 7 women's line. Dayanara Torres had previously modeled for the brand.
The theme song was performed by The Transcenders.
The house used in the show as Michael Kriegers Compound is located in Rancho Santa Fe, CA. Photos can be found here: http://www.dreamhomes.us/Home112115.html
Recap shows originally aired on Saturdays, but were replaced by movies on February 3, 2007.
Mexico's Televisa commissioned its own version of this story in 2006, titled Amar sin Límites ("Love Without Limits"). Univision is expected to air this 100-episode serial in the USA this fall. The Jack and Julia characters are named "Diego" and "Azul."
Clive Robertson turned down a role in this series, calling the part "a waste of time."[1] He later accepted the male lead on Wicked Wicked Games.
Alex Thomas, a main character on Desire, appears in this series. Actor Zack Silva, shown using footage from the previous MyNetworkTV serial, was uncredited.
