Like most teens in the throes of self-evaluation, Angela is attempting to discover and assert her identity. To do this, she distances herself from her past, pulling away from her parents and her childhood friends, Sharon Cherski and Brian Krakow. In their place, she befriends Rayanne Graff and Rickie Vasquez. Angela has a crush on Jordan Catalano and admires him from afar until they begin dating, and after their inevitable breakup.

However, she has a biting and sarcastic wit serving as somewhat of a comic relief throughout the show. She has a crush on Brian and secretly yearns to be more like Angela, whose life and friends fascinate her.

Danielle's voice-over narrates the penultimate episode, "Weekend."

He was a friend of Jordan and Rayanne. Tino was also the lead singer of Jordan's band, Frozen Embryos (later Residue). In the Academy Award-winning 2008 film Juno, the titular character is asked if her band will get back together, and she replies, "Once Tino gets a new drumhead, we should be ready to rock." This was confirmed as a reference to My So-Called Life by screenwriter Diablo Cody on the DVD audio commentary.

Winnie Holzman's struggle to write. The producers encouraged Holzman to write in the voice of a character as if she were writing a diary. Much of what was written for this exercise was used in Angela's voice-over dialogue in the pilot for the show.

By design the parent characters were written flatly in the pilot, as that was how the lead character Angela perceived them. However, Bess Armstrong and Tom Irwin were such strong actors and brought so much to their portrayals that it was difficult to keep them that way.

However, as the storylines for each of the episodes were self-contained and were not contingent on dependent narrative elements, continuity was not affected.
The producers developed a strong working relationship with ABC from having created and produced thirtysomething. Zwick and Herskovitz were allowed to rely on their own judgment and were not subjected to interference or pressure from the network brass, which is a fairly rare situation in network television.
Scott Winant, director of the pilot and several episodes of the season, had been a member of the Bedford Falls family and worked with Zwick and Herskovitz on
Thirtysomething.

Zwick said, "Scott took the material and ran with it. He understood it and brought to it his own alienated understanding of that particular moment in adolescence. But it was not retro.

She was that remarkable. Anyway, that night Claire was tense. Her parents were tense. We were running out of time. But my brother [Ernest Holzman] stayed focused and saw the beauty and romance in that long shot on the street with Angela and Brian. It was he who was pushing to get that shot. He was instrumental in finding that moment, in seeing it and in pushing to get it. It became one of the most iconic images from the show."
The producers were routinely impressed with Danes's natural acting talent. Danes's audition was a scene that appeared in the pilot in which Angela Chase confronts her best friend Sharon Cherski (later played by Devon Odessa) in the bathroom at school. The producers said that when Danes read the part, her face flushed red and her eyes filled with tears as she read the scene. They were impressed by the physical reaction and authenticity she was able to conjure.

Producer Ed Zwick recalled how he marveled at Danes's acting ability during a scene in which she had to tell her mother "to an embarrassing degree" that she was not having sex with Jordan. "We were shooting the scene in the parents' bedroom. The only direction I gave Claire was to sort of put her hand over her face sheepishly as her mother was talking. We started to roll and she just nailed it. She was incredibly natural. We shot the master in one take. Went around the other side. Did one take of coverage on Bess and then one on Claire and we had it. I had never worked so fast before."
Holzman: "We were shooting in an actual high school in LA that was actually open and had students in it (The school scenes were shot on location at
University High School). They gave us, like, a wing of the school. I remember the crew having to hold [our shots] for the bells.

Holzman never intended the show to be exclusively for teens.
