My wife is truly face blind. She doesn’t recognize actors in different roles. Even if she just watches a whole series staring someone, if she watched a different show where they appear, I’ll asked her if she recognizes them. She almost never does unless they look very similar. She says stuff like she didn’t recognize them because their hair was different, like that is a valid excuse. When I see someone in the wild and say “oh wow, they look just like so and so don’t they?” She says no their hair is totally different. 😮💨
That’s relatable, I’m kind of the same way. I’m absolutely awful at remembering facial (or any) features and I sometimes wonder if it’s related to my aphantasia since I can’t really picture anything or anyone in my head
Is your wife potentially not white? My wife of Sri Lankan decent is very similar. But somehow she can tell who’s an actor from one K-drama to the next.
Nice. Haven’t watched Queen of Queen’s and only watched sporadically in years so I don’t remember Doug’s neighbor. But I always love a surprise Bryan Cranston. He’s also Ted’s boss in How I Met Your Mother.

I only just recently noticed that Walter White is Doug Heffernans neighbor.
