Talking Kerry should have been the oldest!

Sorry, but when I see 8 Simple Rules, I see Kerry as older than Bridget! Maybe it's because I know that Amy Davidson is actually older than Kaley Cuoco in real life! I think it would have worked better as Kerry being the older sister! Anyone think so?

I agree with you. Whenever I watch the show, I keep thinking Kerry's older than Bridget.

I have a hard time picturing the older daughter a half a foot shorter than the younger one. I think it was casted perfectly fine.

I think its cast perfectly. Bridget looks older even though Kerry is in real life.

Even though Amy Davidson is older than Kaley Cuoco, I think that Amy should play the younger sister. Plus, Bridget looks older than Kerry. So I think the way things are are just working out great!

Default Kerry should have been the oldest!

Sorry, but I disagree with Bridget looking older than Kerry! I know it's just a matter of opinion, but when I see Kerry, she looks about 18 or 19 and not 15, and Bridget looks about 16 or 17.

I also think it's very possible for the older sibling to be alot shorter! I happen to be the oldest child & the shortest!

Default "I was the oldest and the shortest"

Were you always the shortest, or did your siblings just eventually outgrow you.

I still think it was casted perfectly fine. I personally didn't know Amy Davidson was 24 until I saw it in IMDb. I think she just may seem older on the show because her character is more grown up.

Wink Not always the shortest

Honda Rider, I'm pretty short(5'0"), but it's true all my siblings eventually outgrew me!

The point I was trying to make is that even though it's not uncommon to outgrow an older sibling, it's not as common to have an incredible growth spurt before the older one or for the older one to not have had one at all. I think that's what the producers had in mind when casting her.

Really? I didn't know Amy was older than Kaley before this thread started and I thought Amy was about 15 in real life. I knew Kaley's real age tohugh cos' I was gonna start a site about her

Amy was 18 when they first started filming the show, now shes 20. I think Kaley looks older then Kerry, doesn't really act it. But she looks it!
