Zoo was the most watched scripted summer series of 2015 in the US.
This is the second time that Billy Burke has starred in a screen adaptation of a novel by James Patterson; he also played a minor role in Along Came a Spider (2001). Coincidentally, both times, he played characters that were not in the novels.
Season 2 is expected to air in summer of 2016.
Following the plane crash, Jamie is rescued by a fisherman, played by Haudenosaunee (Mohawk) actor Gary Farmer. The character is apparently supposed be Inuit; his name is given in the credits as "Anik" ("brother", in the Inuit language), and he says repeatedly to Jamie "Tukusigni Namaq", which means "I don't understand." His assumed ethnicity is somewhat at odds with the lush forest surrounding his cabin.
Kristen Connolly and Jayne Atkinson both star together in Netflix's House of Cards (2013).
The tablet like computers that are used through the series are Microsoft Surface Pro 3's.
Although very popular in America, in the Netherlands this series was moved from its original channel SBS6 to sister channel SBS9 after only two air dates (and four episodes) because of disappointing ratings.
Billy Burke and Alyssa Diaz have worked together before on the show Revolution (2012) . On Revolution, Billy Burke plays a main character, while Alyssa Diaz plays a one time role as the sister to the character of Daniella Alonso .
A Rio de Janeiro license plate number - 5N1-7Y4R - can be seen at 14 mins 8 secs in episode 5. However, Rio license plate numbers never start with a digit.
This is the second time that Billy Burke plays the role of a Dad whose daughter becomes miraculously pregnant with a hybrid. The first movie this happens in is Twilight.
