Trivia
The building used in exterior shots as the office building for the U.S. Marshals' Albuquerque office is the historic Sunshine Building in downtown Albuquerque, designed by famous architect Henry C. Trost.

Goofs
Several episodes including the Pilot and S2E1 have a county coroner van. In New Mexico, there are no such things as county coroners. Medical forensics and death in New Mexico are handled by a state level agency called Officer of the Medical Investigator, and all autopsies are handed in Albuquerque.

Quotes
Mary Shannon: [intro] Since 1970, the Federal Witness Protection Program has relocated thousands of witnesses, some criminal, some not, to neighborhoods all across the country. Every one of those individuals shares a unique attribute, distinguishing them from the rest of the general population. And that is, somebody wants them dead.

Great show, if you can tolerate Mary

I found the show to be engaging and close enough to a depiction of real life situations to be both enjoyable and thought provoking. However, Mary's character was so emotionaly disfunctional and self absorbed that it made many of her scenes painful to watch; so much so that by the final season I was looking forward to the end of the series.
