If you’re a fan of TV shows, you’ve probably noticed that sometimes the characters who play relatives on-screen look so alike, we instantly forget they’re not related in real life. It’s almost as if the casting directors of those shows are real magicians. Well, at least they know how to do their job well and get us completely lost in the plot of the show.

Here at Bright Side, we tried to recall TV shows where daughters and mothers and sons and fathers looked so alike, they could easily be relatives in real life. So here’s a gallery of look-alikes that we’ve come up with. Do you support our choices?

Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Tim Allen from Home Improvement

Lisa Kudrow and Teri Garr from Friends

Teri Hatcher and Lesley Ann Warren from Desperate Housewives

Zach Braff and John Ritter from Scrubs

Michelle Dockery and Elizabeth McGovern from Downton Abbey

Zoe Perry and Annie Potts from Young Sheldon

KJ Apa and Luke Perry from Riverdale

Camila Mendes and Marisol Nichols from Riverdale

Alexis Bledel and Lauren Graham from Gilmore Girls

Gina Rodriguez and Andrea Navedo from Jane the Virgin

Leighton Meester and Margaret Colin from Gossip Girl

Katie McGrath and Brenda Strong from Supergirl

Anna Faris and Allison Janney from Mom

Connor Swindells and Alistair Petrie from Sex Education

In your opinion, which characters from our selection look most like parents and kids? Can you add the names of other movie and TV show characters to our list?

The two from Sex Education- they really look like father and son.
in Downton Abbey only the youngest sister looked very much like her mother. It's always been a mystery to me why the other two sisters had brown eyes.

Do you think some people didn't get a part because some other guy who was worse just looked more like the other actor :D
