Production

The show was originally produced as a show called "Spivey's Kid Brother". A pilot was filmed in late 1997, and was later picked up by Disney Channel as "Even Stevens". In the first episode Disney had to dub out the name "Spivey" to "Stevens". In a possible coincidence, the character Louis Driscoll from the show The Secret World of Alex Mack had a best friend named Louis Spivey in the 1996 episode "Spivey", one year previous to the creation of the Even Stevens pilot.
