On account of our inexplicable need to point out actors who remind us of, well other actors comes the latest instalment of our popular ongoing “Separated at Birth” series inspired by last night’s premiere of HAPPY ENDINGS on ABC. Is it just us… or does ENDINGS’ star Adam Pally look strikingly similar to that of STARGATE UNIVERSE’s David Blue, another actor who coincidentally enough found their way onto Hollywood’s radar playing an atypical gay character on ABC’s UGLY BETTY. Discuss.

Just when you thought Hollywood couldn’t get any lazier… brace yourself for the latest installment of our popular ongoing “Separated at Birth” series. Today’s targets — CBS’ UNDERCOVER BOSS and ABC’s SECRET MILLIONAIRE — both of which are not only based on already popular UK formats, but feature remarkably similar structures that see successful American business people leave the comforts of their own home and/or office behind them in order to go undercover and work with those less fortunate. What’s more, both BOSS and MILLIONAIRE culminate in an emotional reveal in which the aforementioned business person discloses their true identity and rewards the hard-working people that have touched them. Agree… disagree… still trying to wrap your head around the idea that programming executives are now ripping off shows that have already been ripped off from other countries!? Post away in the comments below.

Canada has a new ruler and his name is Sheldon Cooper! No really. Since moving to Thursday at 8PM, THE BIG BANG THEORY has not only consistently won its time slot in the United States, but has quickly established itself as Canada’s most popular import, attracting a whopping [in Canadian terms] 3.44 million viewers the week of November 1-7. A statistic which naturally got us thinking: With THE BIG BANG THEORY officially cementing its status as Canada’s most watched show (not to mention, most popular sitcom since FRIENDS), is it possible that we can now add “better taste in television” to a growing list of awesome things about Canada that also happens to include free health care and poutine?

Well, after a little research that saw our crack research staff us rank the top 25 weekly TV shows via total viewer from both Canada and the United States, we have unequivocally come to the conclusion that No — as luck would have it — Canadian and American viewing patterns are exceptionally (and disappointedly) similar. Both countries love generic procedurals, worship their respective national pastimes (Football in the US, Hockey in Canada) and Andy Rooney. But hey, don’t take our word for it, see a side by side comparison for yourself after the jump.

If imitation is indeed the sincerest form of flattery, VAMPIRE DIARIES’ executive producers Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson will be thrilled to discover that 90210 has just added a Jennie Garth doppelganger to the cast!

Or at least that was our initial reaction upon getting a first look at Abbie Cobb (JONAS, STARSTRUCK), who according to Michael Ausiello will be moving into America’s most infamous zip code in the recurring capacity of Annie and Dixon’s spotlight-hungry-boy-crazy cousin Emily. Which is to say, fans should expect Emily to sink her teeth into Liam starting this January.

Update: Even Abbie’s co-stars can’t believe the resemblance! Find out how Michael Steger (Navid Shirazi) reacted the first time he laid eyes on her.

To those who say originality in Hollywood is dead, we’ve got two words for you, “Darn Right!” At least as evidence by the latest edition of our popular recurring “Separated at Birth” series, in which we can’t help but notice a striking resemblance between logos for two of NBC’s comedies both past and present. Suffice to say, if imitation is indeed the sincerest form of flattery, the designers behind the SCRUBS logo should really feel quite good about themselves right about now! As for the designers behind the OUTSOURCED logo — well, we’d say that we hope this total lack of creativity isn’t indicative of what’s in store for viewers of NBC’s latest addition to their Thursday “Comedy Night Done Right” lineup — but unfortunately we’ve already seen the pilot.

Following in the footsteps of our most recent reader-submitted Separated at Birth comes what is quite possibly our most spot-on observation to date! Courtesy of frequent reader Kelly comes former SUPERNATURAL’s Jeffrey Dean Morgan and future GLEE guest star Javier Bardem. We can’t see the difference, can you see the difference?

Next up, in our seemingly never-ending series of actors who remind us of, well other actors comes our latest separated at birth following a quick perusal of this week’s Entertainment Weekly: SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE’s Andy Samberg and the guy featured in Discovery Channel’s “Shark Week” adverts. Discuss.

After almost two years of sharing with our readers our inexplicable need to point out celebrities who, well look like other celebrities it finally happened: A reader submission! “When I was watching PRETTY LITTLE LIARS last week one of the girl’s new boyfriends looked really familiar and I couldn’t figure out why,” emailed frequent stopper-byer known as ‘Ace’ in the comments. “And finally it hit me, Diego González looks exactly like a young Alex O’Loughlin. Heck, his character’s name is even Alex!” Agree, disagree, offended that we’d even date to indirectly call Alex O’Loughlin old!? Have your say in the comments below.

On account of our inexplicable need to point out actors who remind us of, well other actors comes our latest separated at birth after yesterday’s visit to the set of USA’s upcoming new spy thriller COVERT AFFAIRS: NIP/TUCK’s Joely Richardson (above, right) and one of the star of the upcoming new USA series Kari Matchett.

Courtesy of our inexplicable need to point out actors who remind us of, well other actors, comes our latest separated at birth: FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS star Kyle Chandler and LONESTAR’s James Wolk, who while not quite a household name just yet, is on the verge of becoming Hollywood’s “Next Big Thing” come Fall. Trust us.
