Alternate titles that were considered before the series went to air include "Wizards and Warlords" and "Greystone's Odyssey".
This was the most expensive network series that had been attempted at the time, with a budget of $8 million for eight episodes.
Although Julie Payne and Julia Duffy portray a royal mother & daughter, their real-life age difference is only five years...which makes "Queen Lattinia" young enough to be "King Edwin's" offspring.
