Jason Bateman and Portia de Rossi's characters on 'Arrested Development' were twins.

Concerning adults:
The Lawrence Welk Show featured the male identical Otwell Twins (Roger & David), from the late 1970s until the end of the original broadcast run (1982).

Hey that's right. I remember the triplets on My Three Sons.
How about other triplets on TV shows?

Do identical cousins count?

Hee Haw had the Hager twins, Jim & Jon

The Borden Twins, Rosalyn and Marilyn, were guests on several shows including CHiPs, Maude and The Ropers. I think their most famous guest appearance was on "I Love Lucy" as Teensy and Weensy in "Tennessee Bound."

I guess it is relevant in its own way. It is something how sometimes one actor plays two roles (such as Patty Duke) and sometimes two actors play one role such as the twins who played the youngest Ingall sister in Little House On The Prarie.
I guess it is harder to find identical triplets who can act .

OMG!!! Were they the Psychic twins on CHIPS season 1? I didn't realize they and Teensy & Weensy were the same women!!!

COOL!!!!!

I just remembered another set of twins on "The Cosby Show." When Rudy had a slumber party ("The Slumber Party" #22), there was a set of twins playing a hand-clapping game while Cliff watched. There names were Dana and Kyle Bryant.

Also more fake twins:

Brandon (Jason Priestly) and Brenda (Shannen Doherty) on "Beverly Hills, 90210" were twins.

Dove Cameron plays identical twins on "Liv and Maddie" on The Disney Channel.

Cindy (Jamie Luner) and Wendy (Brooke Theiss) were twins on "Just The Ten of Us."

It would have been better if Jamie or Brooke played twins the way Patty Duke did.
