Production Notes

• This episode is paired with "Adrift" as a two-parter, but more like "Progeny" and "The Real World", with "several like story elements that will run through a number of episodes in the show’s fourth season." (Joseph Mallozzi's March 2 blog)
• Joseph Mallozzi's one-word description of this episode is "gamble". (Joseph Mallozzi's March 5 blog)
• "They are both big episodes [Adrift and Lifeline], offering much in the way of eye candy visual effects, character moments, and major revelations." (Joseph Mallozzi's March 21 blog)
• "Since Martin Wood is Up north shooting scenes from Continuum, Andy Mikita will be stepping in to direct some days from Adrift and Lifeline." (Joseph Mallozzi's March 22 blog)
• Images from the set of Lifeline are included in Josesph Mallozzi's March 30 blog entry (including Dr. Weir with others in a puddle jumper).
• "Doppelganger and Lifelife certainly have their dark moments as well." (Joseph Mallozzi's April 3 blog)
