The female co-host role was filled over the course of the series by MTV VJ Idalis, actresses Kris McGaha, Catherine McCord, Diane Farr and comedian Laura Kightlinger. "Loveline TV" was filmed at Hollywood Center Studios. "The Dr. Drew and Adam Book: A Survival Guide to Life and Love", an advice book written in a tone similar to the radio show, was released in 1998. The series has also spawned a number of "Loveline"-inspired games that have been mentioned on the show. A thinly-veiled reference to "Loveline" can be seen in the 1989 film Heathers in a scene featuring a radio call-in advice program called "Hot Probs" hosted by none other than Jim Trenton, a former host of "Loveline".
