I can think of two recent ones:

Emily & Rebecca

also Bernie & his cousin who did the same thing that Bernie does now before he died...

Hmmm let us see you forgot how Frannie and Sabrina on ATWT was not only identical half sisters, but also cousins. And then also on ATWT Jade who wanted Will to her self, and get Gwen out of the picture, searched the internet for Gwen's look alike Cleo. Who turned out to be an odd ball and pschotic and ended up tying Gwen and Jade both to the railroad tracks in Branson Missouri, as she tried to take Gwen's place on stage and take Will for her self.

What about the Lily/Ava storyline on AMC? They were identical cousins too. And the Frankie/Maggie AMC storyline and the Anna/Alex AMC/GH crossover? I can't remember if they were twins or not...

I was suprised that two of my favorites didn't make your list. Stuart and Adam Chandler of all my children.

correction: in terms of AMC's Tad/Dix/Ted...Dix was no "damsel in distress" in that s/l. LOL TAD was...she was the one who figured out that Ted was planning to kill Tad [yeah because he wanted her and of course, Tad was a major threat] and SHE went to Canada to SAVE HIM. in fact, did more than once through that whole ordeal...to the point of when they fell in a raging river, she was the one who let go of what she was holding onto, risking her life...so that Tad, who was unconscious wouldn't drown. therefore, just needed to get that straight.

though really i say they saved each other in more ways than one. ;-)

i feel like theres a lot of other famous doppleganger storylines that didnt make it... one of my least favorite was def on GH with Sam and the dancing heiress storyline. ugh. Y&R def lost me with their stupid doppleganger storylines. a sheila storyline without the real sheila actress is stupid, and this time Y&R had doppleganger overkill. pass

Enough of patty. Thank God you concluded the Lauren Jana story or u would have lost me for a while.
