Default Actors playing relaves who look like they could really be related

In terms of physical appearance, mannerisms, demeanor or all of the above:

I could believe that The Brady Bunch girls were Florence Henderson's kids, though I'm not so sure about the men;

Darius McCrary and Kelli Shagnyne Williams looked like they could really be JoMarie and Rginald Veljohnson's kids on family Matters, esp. Kelli who had a lot of her mother's attitude;

Ron Howard could pass for Marion Ross' son and Erin Moran for Tom Bosley's daughter on Happy Days;

Art Evans guest starred in 2 episodes of Different World as Daryl Bell's father and was very convincing in stature and mannerisms;

The actors who played DJ and Darlene on Roseanne both looked and/or behaved like her.

Some that were not believable:

On Good Times none of the 5 actors who played the Evans looked or acted like they could be immediate family;

Sarah Chalke the second Becky in Roseanne- no way in the world did she seem like she was an organic part of that family in looks, demeanor or behavior

I've got the ultimate one: Kelsey Grammer and David Hyde Pierce from "Frasier." The resemblance is freaky.

Also, Ross and Monica from "Friends."

Insane.

Although their behavior is purposely opposite, but John Mahoney looks a believable father to the brothers Crane.

when he was really young (first 2 or 3 seasons), one would believe Michael Fishman was really Roseanne's son.

I hate Full House, but I thought Candace Cameron and Jodie Sweeten looked more related than Candace did with her REAL-LIFE brother Kirk.

I could also buy Sally Struthers being Carroll O'Connor's daughter.

Dana Plato playing Conrad Baines daughter. I see some resemblance in this picture. She acted the part of 'daughter' quite well.

Also, don't Bonnie Franklin {One day At a Time} and Nancy Dussault {Too Close For Comfort} looks like they could be sisters?

I'm nuts, but to me, Tim Daly and Steven Weber (Wings) look like they really could be brothers.

On the first season of Hope and Faith, Faith Fords eldest tv daughter looked a lot like Faith Ford. THe new daughter, well I can't see any resemblance at all.
