Trivia: James Eckhouse plays Jim Walsh, father of Brandon Walsh (Jason Priestley). In real life, Eckhouse is only 14 years older than Priestley.
Trivia: When Brandon and Kelly leave the movie theater, they pass a billboard for The House of Yes, which co-starred Tori Spelling.
Mr. Walsh Goes to Washington (2) - S4-E32
Trivia: This was Shannen Doherty's last appearance as Brenda. She wouldn't play the role again for almost fifteen years, when she appeared on the 2008 spin-off "90210".
Trivia: To avoid suspicions of nepotism (favoritism granted to relatives), since her father was an executive producer, Tori Spelling used the name "Tori Mitchell" at her audition.
Trivia: Hillary Swank's role was originally going to last longer than it did. She was written out after only sixteen episodes due to poor audience response to her character. This eventually ended up in Swank's favor: she was able to take the lead role in Boys Don't Cry, for which she won her first Academy Award.
Chosen answer: I'm sure something like that happened. Brandon (always being the good and concientious friend) probably passed on the title so Steve could live in the house legally and if anything happened like a fire, would be there to take charge.
