On June 3, 1995, it became the first feature film to be shown in its entirety on the Internet through Glenn Fleishman's Point of Presence Company (POPCO). Parker Posey appeared live in the POPCO offices to introduce the film and welcome Internet viewers.
According to Daisy von Scherler Mayer, Eric Stoltz was in the opening party scene but his footage was cut.
The movie was turned into a short lived FOX sitcom (Party Girl (1996)) starring Christine Taylor, Swoosie Kurtz and John Cameron Mitchell.
In the Spring 1995 edition of RQ (Reference & User Services Quarterly) an article by Dewdney & Mitchell appeared titled "Oranges and Peaches: Understanding Communication Accidents in the Reference Interview" details a reference interview at a library where the Origin of Species is mistaken for Oranges and Peaches, as in the film. According to the article's footnotes, the story was taken from a discussion on the LIBREF-L list (p. 534). It's unclear whether the script or the LIBREF-L discussion/article came first.
Sasha von Scherler, who portrays Judy Lindendorf, Mary's librarian godmother, is Screenwriter/Director Daisy von Scherler Mayer's mother in real life.
"Mary: I would like a nice, powerful, mind-altering substance. Preferably one that will make my unborn children grow gills."
"[repeated line] Mary: Can I have a falafel with hot sauce, a side order of Baba Ghanoush and a seltzer, please?"
