The cousins ages

[bliss]

They are identical cousins of course. But I always wondered who was older and obviously they had different birthdays. I'm really looking into this hard I'll say Cathy was the oldest (by how many years or are they even the same age) since she's mentioned first in the theme song and was above Patty Lane in billing.

I never thought about it, but you are right they were cousins not twins so one would have to be older. I'm thinking around the same age by a few months only. Kathy seems older/more mature yet Patty looks older. I know they are identical, but to me somehow the Patty character looked older than Kathy!

I think they're the same age because the othe day, both of them were running for Senior Class President...

That is what I figured , they were about the same age, same grade in school! One would still have to be a little older though!

I like to think Patty seems younger due to her immaturity while Cath seems to be the wise one who gets mixed up in Patty's situations.

Never thought of the birthday episodes! I know it was obviously a fantasy sitcom but still this age thing I wonder about recently after re-watching these episodes.
