Famous twins
Get a load of Crossing Jordon Jill Hennessy's identical twin sister Jackie.
Jacqueline Hennessy Pictures
Jacqueline Hennessy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The girls started out together in Dead ringers with Jeremy Irons. While Jill pursued acting, Jackie got a PhD in French Litt. Today she is the host of Medical Intelligence on Rogers Cable (from which the above stills were taken - it must be some show too because Ms Hennessey looks astonished in every episode!). She is also an associate editor with Châtelaine Magazine. BTW - though the family name is Irish, the ladies are Gypsy/Romanii through their mother.
The ladies worked together again for Jill's mockumentary "The Acting Class", which she wrote and directed, about a group of highly dysfunctional actors.

Dack & Dirk Rambo
You might not remember this guy, though he does have a fascinating story. He was last seen on Dallas, as a long lost Ewing cousin Jack, brought in to replace Pat Duffy - until the producers dreamed up a way of bringing Bobby back. He was first seen on the Guns of Will Sonnet with Walter Brennan, and his name was Norman Rambo, though he acted under the name of Dack.
Now Norman had an identical twin brother who worked under the name of Dirk. Dirk and Dack may sound a bit cornball, even by entertainment standards, so the link is provided to bear this out. Now Dirk died in an auto accident back in 1967. Thing is that Norman claims that he and his brother always shared a deep 'psychic' bond as some twins do, and that he knew the exact moment his brother died - because he himself was suddenly and unexplained racked with extreme physical pain. It was as if he had been in the auto accident himself.
Dack was pretty devastated by his twin's death, but did go on to work consistently as an actor. He did some daytime soap opera work, some TV miniseries, a short lived Glen A Larson type series called Sword of Justice - a vigilante upholds justice by breaking the law - and even an appearance on Wonder Woman as Diana Prince love interest Spaceman Andros (see pic). Rambo eventually discovered he was HIV positive,a nd became an AIDS awareness campaigner until his own death in 1994.

He was pretty. Were they identical twins? I think I read somewhere they were also on some show, was it Dinah Shore? Playing somebody's sons....

Remember Judy and Audrey - the Landers twins?? One was on Dallas, though they were both frequent passengers on the Love Boat, and regular visitors to Fantasy Island.

They're not twins, though. Audrey was born in 1956 and Judy in 1958.
