History Series / SchittsCreek

* CanadaEh: While it's subtle, Canadian viewers can spot numerous Canadian references woven into the dialogue and in Season 4 Dan Levy confirmed that the town's never-stated location is somewhere in Canada. Cities like Winnipeg and Montreal are mentioned. Stevie has a Sarah [=McLachlan=] poster in her apartment, and David once went as Alanis Morissette for Halloween. Moira once partied with The Rolling Stones and ''Maggie Trudeau''. Roland wears a Commonwealth-style mayoral collar when he's being roasted and at the premiere of ''The Crows Have Eyes 3''. The railroad crossing downtown uses a Canadian-style crossbuck sign. A police officer wears a Canadian-style uniform. Jocelyn makes Nanaimo bars. The speed-limit signs seen in occasional establishing shots of the town are clearly Canadian (with "MAXIMUM" written across the top and a speed limit--50–that, while not expressly in km/h, is too high to be in mph for the street shown). Most importantly, however, the tiny town has a curling rink.

* BlondeBrunetteRedHead: The three younger generation women of Schitt's Creek: Alexis (blonde), Stevie (brunette), Twyla (redhead).

* AbortedArc: Overlapping somewhat with CharacterDevelopment, the whole concept of the Roses owning Schitt's Creek rarely gets brought up past the first season or two, and Johnny's attempts to do something with his ownership fade out. In the end, [[spoiler:most of the family move away, and their continuing ownership of the town is never even brought up]].

* BlondBrunetteRedHead: The three younger generation women of Schitt's Creek: Alexis (blonde), Stevie (brunette), Twyla (redhead).

** The SeriesFinale contains a number of call backs including [[spoiler:The Jazzagals singing ''Precious Love'' and ''The Best'' during David and Patrick's wedding, and Patrick singing a Music/MariahCarey song as part of his vows. There's also callbacks to the town's iconic sign both when Alexis wears a wedding dress to her brother's wedding, making it look like they are getting married, and the final shot of the series shows the sign itself, which Roland has altered to feature the Rose family.]]

* ArtisticLicenseGeography: When Moira gets an acting gig in Bosnia, David tells her that she'll be paid in "local Baltic currency." But Bosnia is not a Baltic country, it's a ''Balkan'' country. [[DownplayedTrope Though this could easily be a mistake on David's part rather than the writers.]] Or it could be another indicator that the movie is a TroubledProduction InUniverse, as it's a campy horror flick that the director considers beneath him.

%% * GettingCrapPastThe Radar: Due to overwhelming and persistent misuse, GCPTR is on-page examples only until 01 June 2021. If you are reading this in the future, please check the trope page to make sure your example fits the current definition.

* ThreeAmigos: David, Stevie and Patrick. David and Patrick both like Stevie and consider her a close friend, and the trio often hangs out together.

* LocalHangout: The Roses are often seen dining at Cafe Tropical, a diner with a comically extensive menu, which is the only restaurant in town and the setting for many major events in the show.
