    When the cast and crew shot the pilot for Raising Hope, the original title was "Keep Hope Alive." However, the name was changed before the series aired out of concern of a lawsuit from Jesse Jackson. Raising Hopeended up being a more fitting title for the series anyway. Although "Keep Hope Alive" is a funny play on the fact that Jimmy had no idea w...

    Executive producer Greg Garcia managed to sneak in quite a few ties to his other show, My Name is Earl. For example, everyone from the lead cast of My Name is Earl makes a guest appearance at least once in Raising Hope.

    It would be really hard to imagine Raising Hope without Shannon Woodward as Sabrina, but that was almost the case. The pilot for Raising Hopewas originally shot with a different actress because Woodward backed out of the screen test. She apparently got cold feet because she had never done comedy before, but luckily Garcia called her and convinced h...

    Raising Hopedefinitely would not be the same without Cloris Leachman's hilarious part as Maw Maw. When Leachman was given the role, Garcia estimated that the show would be on the air for 7 years. Leachman would be 92 by the series end, but she had no qualms about that at all. Although the series only ended up lasting four seasons, it's pretty impre...

    In the episode "Happy Halloween" Jimmy and Sabrina dance to a song called "White Night" by The Postelles. Unfortunately, they are interrupted by Sabrina's then-boyfriend Wyatt. Fans were delighted when Sabrina finally ended up with Jimmy and their relationship took off. In the episode, "Not Indecent, But Not Quite Decent Enough Proposal" the same s...

    In total, Hope Chance was played by three different babies throughout the series. The first baby Hope appeared only in the pilot episode. After that, twins Baylie and Rylie Cregut took up the role. They appeared in the second episode of the series and remained in the role until the end of the show.

    The opening credits to Raising Hopeare shot with images of the cast that look like pages from a children's book. The final image shows the Chance family, with Hope playing with building blocks. The blocks Hope is playing with spell out the word "HELP."

    Wilmer Valderrama (who played Fez on That '70s Show) guest stars in Raising Hope as the new love interest of Sabrina's mother. Fans probably caught on to this considering he featured pretty prominently in several episodes. However, what might have gone unnoticed is that another That '70s Show star had a small part in Raising Hope. RELATED: That '70...

    Raising Hopehas a small error in the storyline that until the episode "Family Secrets" Jimmy believed he was allergic to fruit. His parents finally admit that this was a lie in this episode, and after this discovery, Jimmy goes on a fruit binge at Howdy's. However during a flashback in "Don't Vote For This Episode" Jimmy is living at Howdy's market...

    In the episode "Squeek Means Squeek" a special guest from another television series makes an appearance that fans may have missed. When Jimmy helps Barney with his auxiliary police patrol, they come across a man who needs help removing a splinter from his niece's finger. The man is played by Christopher Douglas Reed and he is clearly wearing a 'SAM...

  4. I never watched Raising Hope, but I have enjoyed Garcia's other shows (Earl, The Guest Book). If you're a fan of his, you have to watch Sprung, which was on Amazon's Freevee around this time last year. It is hysterical but with heart, like his other shows. I so hope it gets a second season.

  5. Offbeat sitcom RAISING HOPE stars Lucas Neff as Jimmy Chance, a 23-year-old pool skimmer looking for a higher purpose in life. After discovering that he fathered a baby girl during a one-night stand with a convicted killer, Jimmy chooses to raise his daughter rather than give her up for adoption.

  6. Raising Hope: Created by Gregory Thomas Garcia. With Lucas Neff, Martha Plimpton, Garret Dillahunt, Shannon Woodward. Jimmy becomes a single parent to an infant after her mother, with whom he had a one-night stand, ends up on Death Row.
