The film focused on traditional rom-com storylines instead of heavier LGBTQ+ themes, standing out in queer cinema at the time.
Director Greg Berlanti based the film on his circle of friends, with some characters being autobiographical, creating a personal touch.
The Howie/Marshall storyline was inspired by a relationship Berlanti once had, adding depth and authenticity to the film.
The Broken Hearts Club had the working title of The Broken Hearts League and was initially named 8x10s, reflecting Berlanti's connection to aspiring actors.
