Yeah, that's a good one because they both appeared in the same story at different points, like a Dick Sargent/Dick York mix-up.

If I only catch very brief glimpses of them in a preview or trailer, I always get Rob Corddry and Paul Scheer mixed up.

In spite of the recent palaver, I still confuse Robert Maxwell with Rupert Murdoch.

single twin, twin sister, twin shadow

rong thread j1m

Paul Scheer's a different height, different head shape and always distinguishable by his gappy grin, but I'm still not entirely certain Corddry and David Koechner are separate people.

Matt Tilley, Justin Hamilton and the bloke who plays Wilfred

(oh i always get those ~three~ mixed up)

Came here to post this.

I just realized I have been confusing Derek Jakobi and Ian Holm, don't know why.

For me, it's Derek Jacobi and Derek Jarman.

Ira Robbins (Trouser Press) and Ira Kaplan (New York Rocker, some band).

Byron Coley (Forced Exposure) and Gerard Cosloy (Conflict, some record label).

Frank Owen and Frank Kogan. (At least in 1988 I'd get them confused.)

Ira Robbins (Trouser Press) and Ira Kaplan (New York Rocker, some band).

How about Andy Schwartz (New York Rocker) and Andy Shernoff (New York rock guy)? I used to get them mixed up all the time.

Yeah, them two too. Doesn't the latter guy, from the Dictators, misspell his name Adny? He was misspelling long before the internet, he was way ahead of his time.

My first search was "Adny Shernoff," just to double-check, and all I got back was "Andy." But I guess we're right.
