- The character is named Chris Boal according to a deleted scene from the first draft of the unaired pilot script.[1]

- Chris is the first character to appear on screen in the TV series, if the shot of Buffy Summers in the prologue sequence is excluded.
- Chris is the first character to die in the TV series.
