What's left behind the scenes

  • Ben and Allison, the main characters of "Knocked Up" (2007), do not appear in this quasi-sequel, but there are references to them. Allison's painting can be seen on the wall, and Pete mentions getting marijuana cupcakes from Ben. Three other characters from "Knocked Up" (2007) also appear in this film: Jodi (Charlyne Yi) – previously a kind drug addict, and in this film a worker at Debbie’s store; Jason (Jason Segel) – previously Ben’s best friend, now Debbie’s personal trainer; Tim Bagley simply reprises his role as the obstetrician-gynecologist Pellagrino.
  • Pete (Paul Rudd) jokes in the film, comparing his sexual prowess to that of David Schwimmer (and Ross, Schwimmer’s character from the series “Friends,” 1994–2004). This makes it clear that he thinks both Pete and Schwimmer aren’t very good in bed. Schwimmer's press secretary told the Chicago Sun-Times that Schwimmer had not been informed in advance whether he agreed to be the object of this joke. Judd Apatow explained that he didn’t mean anything offensive. Paul Rudd, meanwhile, was a frequent guest on the set of the series “Friends” (1994–2004) during the show's last two seasons.
  • Sadie (Maude Apatow) is a big fan of the series “Lost” (2004–2010), and Jack (Matthew Fox) is repeatedly shown on screen. In "Knocked Up" (2007), Ben is very dismissive of Matthew Fox, saying there’s nothing special about him.
  • The role of Debbie was played by the director Judd Apatow’s wife, Leslie Mann. Their two daughters, Iris Apatow and Maude Apatow, also played the roles of the children. Judd Apatow decided to give the role of Pete to Paul Rudd, a family friend.
  • When the whole family is watching television, the cartoon “SpongeBob SquarePants” (1999) is shown (specifically the episode “That’s No Lady” from season 4), but as soon as a quarrel begins, another episode is shown (“No Weenies Allowed” from season 3).
  • Pete (Paul Rudd) jokes in the film, comparing his sexual prowess to that of David Schwimmer (and Ross, Schwimmer's character from the series "Friends", 1994–2004). Thus, he makes it clear that he thinks both Pete and Schwimmer are not very good in bed. Schwimmer's publicist told the Chicago Sun-Times that Schwimmer had not been informed in advance whether he agreed to be the object of this joke. Judd Apatow explained that he did not intend any offense. Paul Rudd, meanwhile, was a frequent guest on the set of "Friends" (1994–2004) during the last two seasons of the show.
  • When the whole family is watching television, they're showing the cartoon "SpongeBob SquarePants" (1999) (specifically the episode "That's no lady" from season 4), but as soon as a quarrel starts, they switch to a different episode ("No weenies alowed" from season 3).
