* WriteWhatYouKnow: The series is based on the childhood of creator Ian James Corlett, which is perhaps most evident in the title character sharing his first name. Also like Ian Kelley, Corlett grew up in Burnaby, a real-life city in the Metro Vancouver regional district; had a strong interest in filmmaking; and had two older brothers whose parents ran a piano store. The design of the Kelley house was even directly based on Corlett's childhood home right down to its unique Spanish-styled architecture.
