What show had evil twins? What show DIDN'T have evil twins? Tom Send a noteboard - 04/12/2009 05:01:24 PM
Let's review the list:

Bewitched - Samantha and her look-alike cousin Serena
I Dream of Jeannie - Jeannie and her sister (who wore green to distinguish herself and had black hair but was still Barbara Eden)
Gilligan's Island - There was a look-alike Gilligan imposter AND a Mr. Howell look-alike
Friends - Phoebe's twin sister, Ursula (and, very briefly, Rachel's boyfriend Russ, played by David Schwimmer and barely distinguishable from Ross)

The plot device was used so often that VH1 devoted an entire episode of its show "Super Secret TV Formulas" to talk about it.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!

Although quite absurd, "Knight Rider" wasn't technically a sitcom - 04/12/2009 05:13:09 PM 418 Views
Yeah, I really got sucked in by that Benson marathon. - 04/12/2009 05:29:39 PM 444 Views
Oh, he was the sort of whiney guy with glasses, right? - 04/12/2009 09:56:52 PM 425 Views
No glasses, no. He also wasn't terribly whiney as I recall. *NM* - 04/12/2009 10:10:24 PM 209 Views
