Both Shelley Long and Bette Midler were promised top billing when they signed to do the film. Neither one wanted to give up top billing to the other. So west of the Mississippi River, Long got top billing and Midler got top billing east of the Mississippi.
Bette Midler wore an oversized very large orange jumper throughout the movie to disguise the fact that she was pregnant.
Bette Midler was three months pregnant when filming began and six months pregnant when it wrapped.
According to the 80s Movie Rewind, when Bette Midler fell in front of a truck in the movie, it was not part of the script. Midler had winged it during the shot because she thought it would look good in the film. Shelley Long and the crew were worried about the prat-fall with Long quickly rushing to her aid and pulling Midler to the curbside. The scene was kept in the picture.
One of a mid-late 1980s mini-cycle of movie comedies which starred Bette Midler that were all produced by the new adult Walt Disney subsidiary production house of Touchstone Pictures. The films include Big Business (1988), Ruthless People (1986), Outrageous Fortune (1987) and Down and Out in Beverly Hills (1986).

"Sandy: [after spending the night with Michael, Lauren comes into class with a dreamy smile on her face] Oh, my... that kind of evening, huh? Lauren: Well, not the kind you're used to; no money changed hands!"
