Beginning with this episode, the generic "luxury lifestyle" shots accompanying each actor's opening credit (a bank for Blake, jewelry for Krystle, a luxury car for Alexis) are replaced with close-up shots from past and future episodes (such as Dana's bridal march for Leann Hunley or Steven riding Velez for Jack Coleman). In addition, Coleman, John James, Emma Samms, Terri Garber, and Bo Hopkins get new opening credits shots, while a previously-used one is revived for Joan Collins.
Originally (and beginning here), the final two seasons were shot on film in principal photography, and then finished on videotape in post-production. When they were released on DVD in 2014, CBS DVD went all the way back to the original 35mm negatives, which included recreating the opening titles. However, the original negatives for the ending titles couldn't be found, so those were simply enhanced from the older tape masters.
Matthew's former wife, Claudia, is never mentioned.
