- TriviaThe Lobster Roll restaurant actually exists in Montauk, but is closed in the winter.
- GoofsThere are more episodes than not that, during the 'previously, on The Affair' recaps, used scenes that weren't in any episodes (cut/deleted/alternate scenes). Makes an already confusing storyline more-so.

Featured review
Two sides to the same story
This series is meant to keep viewers hanging on. I like that. We're witnessing a train wreck. I can't stop looking, waiting for the outcome. Like any train wreck, there are eye witnesses with differing accounts of the events leading up to the aftermath of the event. Alison and Noah are providing their perceptions of the wreck and collateral damage. The train hasn't stopped screeching toward halting to a stop. The debris field isn't complete. The Affair is a piece that makes you observe and think. I don't find it all that entertaining. Those reviews that are complaints are looking to be entertained. Asking why are the characters doing this or that...IT'S A STORY. FICTION. A WRITER'S STORY. It may also hit a nerve for viewers who've had an affair or contemplated one. Art imitating life?
