Jennifer Finnigan + Joanna Garcia's Ages



I think it's so funny that Jennifer is a couple weeks younger than Joanna. I would never have guessed it had I not looked this up. I think Finnigan and Cooke look a little older than their 31 and 30.

i know i might be over-analysising, but this really bugged me:

maddie said she has been with her boyfriend for 9 years.
maddie is four years older than mia (mia was 14 when maddie went off to college at 18).
maddie started dating the boyfriend when mia was 12 (hence, she was 16).

so by that logic:
maddie is only 25 and mia is only 21.

they both look well into their twenties, and jennifer finnigan looks like she's in her early thirties at least.
unless i totally misheard when she got together with her boyfriend..??

We don't know for sure that she started dating him when she was 16, so she could be older. When she was talking to her sister she said, "You were like twelve", so she most likely just meant that she was young when they started dating. My guess is Joanna Garcia's character was like 14ish and Jennifer Finnigan's 18, making them 23 and 27 now.
