"They look so much alike, it’s scary."
2.Elena (Reese Witherspoon) and Lexie Richardson (Jade Pettyjohn) from Little Fires Everywhere
3.Sasha (Lindsay Price) and Izzie Taylor (Fivel Stewart) from Atypical
"While watching Atypical, I kept thinking Izzie looked like Lindsay Price, then, low and behold, we're introduced to Lindsay Price as her mother in the show. I really thought they were related somehow, but nope."
4.Shelby Corcoran (Idina Menzel) and Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) from Glee
