I always thought Chabert and Love Hewitt looked like each other.


It was funny that they were not siblings on the show, though.

It's an ordinary high school day. Except that it's not.

Many people feel that way, the younger Chabert didn't look much like Hewitt at all.

Hewitt didn't join the series until season two.

Yeah, I know. I was a big fan of this show when I was younger and I even thought that younger Chabert looked like her...plus she's also in Not Another Teen Movie playing the character Love Hewitt plays in Can't Hardly Wait!

Each has been called the other, they've mentioned this in interviews. It's a shame that Chabert has had so much more difficulty breaking through as Fox and Hewitt. Lacey's Claudia was amazing, her talent was well beyond her years. The character of Claudia was such a vital glue to the entire series. If you get the chance, see The Brooke Ellison Story, to see some of Chabert's best work. It was Christopher Reeve's final project before he passed away.

I always thought that Bailey and Sarah looked alike too... (which is creepy cuz they dated) she could have been a long lost sister!

But I always thought they did a good job casting the brothers and sisters to look alike. A lot of the time family members don't look anything like each other on TV shows! Claudia and Bailey look more alike and Julia and Charlie look more alike. They say Julia looked like their mom... maybe Bailey looked like their Dad. And Owen, well he's not important!

In an episode of Ghost Whisperer, Lacy Chabert plays the girlfriend of Jennifer Love Hewitt's ex. THey mention that he chose someone who looks just like her.

vaffaangel - yes I remember watching this episode and thinking how much Lacy looked like Jennifer - to the extent I checked out the cast credits as I wondered if they were related - I was quite surprised to see it was Lacy as I recognised her name from Party of Five.

In an episode of Ghost Whisperer, an ex bf of JLH apparently was still in love with her and after they broke up..he searched for a carbon-copy of her. He wanted his girlfriend to look just like her. So, they chose Lacey Chabert for the role lol..



I guess I'll cut my losses, and turn my tricks at the magic show..

I always thought Lacey looked like a mini-JLH as well.

The parallels are eerie, both refused to do on-screen nudity, both and now washed up and doing Lifetime Channel movies. They could be cast interchangeably.
