I'm Sure goldberg has a million of them. Whoopi Goldberg is the biggie
😂
Bianca and Will Smith
Cody and Lana
Wiz and Mia
The pornstar?
No his sister
🤣🤣🤣 is the first thing that popped into my head such a funny interview
Yeah, that one
This sub is so utter freaking dogshit
it’s been this way for literal years. the same 5-10 ideas get copy/pasted all year round so expect posts like this to dominate this sub for the next few months
Seth Rollins and Henry Rollins

If you’re not sure whether Washington or Oregon is the big brother, you’re from Oregon.
Alaska and Hawaii are definitely cousins who are super different but still have a whale of a time at holiday parties
I live in Alaska and so many people have connections in Hawaii!
I recently discovered this Hawaii-Alaska axis. I don't get it but it's cool
Oregon is the older brother, but one that is poorer and less driven than his little brother. He looks at Washington and just shakes his head, saying "Man, I love you, but you need to take things easier."
And for all that they have in common, RI is still so distinctly different. Different accents, different food, different local TV, different beaches (Narragansett/Newport beaches and Cape Cod are a totally different vibe). It's really unique that two small states so close together can have so much that separates one from the other.
I can see that lol Portland definitely feels like Seattle’s little bro in a lot of ways
And CT is the child of divorce with shared custody between MA and NY
Don’t forget the black sheep, Idaho.
Nevada here, we’re definitely California’s little sister (Cindy, please. . .not Jan). Arizona, you can be Jan.
This is a good one for sure lol
I’ve been to all three states and honestly I don’t really see a big bro-little bro dynamic between them. I find Nevada and Arizona quite distinct from California, while Arizona and Nevada seem like a 1A and 1B duo rather than a big brother, little brother duo.
Madonna has 7 siblings and I don’t think she’s been particularly close to any of them through the years - I know a couple years before her brother Anthony passed away, he was living under a bridge for a time in the Detroit area and estranged from her
I knew one of them personally (not mentioned here) and they were close as children and in the 90s I believe, but not at the time I knew him as much. He was a nice guy but suffered from addiction issues back then
I read that she’s fairly close to her youngest sister and friendly enough with the rest. I think having an extremely famous sibling must be an odd experience.
Madonna and Christopher used to be incredibly close, he was director of her tours, and she tried multiple times to get him help for his addictions. He released a very salacious memoir that trashed her and caused a huge strain in their relationship.
At this point I think it's safe to say that Prince William and Prince Harry are estranged as well.
Didn’t Harry say having more than two children is irresponsible not too long after William and Kate had their third? That guy seems to be an eternal turd in the punchbowl for that family.
Yeah, it sucks for both the kids involved. Louis because his POS dad who abandoned him + his teenage mom only wants to reconnect for money and fame and was using his daughter to do that, the daughter because it truly isn’t her fault that she wanted a relationship with her older half-brother her dad abandoned. Side note, can you imagine waking up one day and finding out a member of your favourite boy band is your brother? Great fan fic material lol
It’s so sad, because Louis is so close to all his other siblings (who he grew up with) and is clearly very family-oriented. He probably would’ve liked to have a relationship with his other sister, but their piece of shit father ensured that would never happen.
I always thought the rumours are that the rift really started going after William cheated on Kate, but that part has never been said by either brother in public.
I thought both older Quaid brothers were big douchebags?
It must have been pretty big back in the day because I was never a 1D fan and I knew about it.
She was briefly bullied by people claiming she was lying about him being her brother.
Sonic & Tails
They're not siblings
They’re adopted siblings (at least in the movies)
Wario and Waluigi aren't related. They're just pals who found each others hating the Mario brothers.
The Pines twins.
Wario and Waluigi arent siblings though, to my knowledge, just friends
You forgot about Kyle & Sarah MacLachlan
Not cousins, though they too are identical.
My favorite cousins are the ones from sailor moon, not identical but they have matching outfits and spend a lot of time together
Even the EYE colors are about the same!
Oh, so cute Tiago, Bia, and Carla from Rio 2
And Jinora, Ikki, and Meelo from the Legend of Korra
I still need to watch TLOK. Loved ATLA but never was able to see it. Thanks for the reminder!
Two sisters and their little brother who often butt heads because of their differing personalities but still are extremely close. The boy is the youngest and an energetic mischief maker with a gas problem. One sister is cute and fun loving, while the other is bookish and mature for her age and as a result, she has the strongest bond with their father
Hey y’all, this season I’m noticing a lot about sibling relationships, more specifically, sister relationships.
We have M’gann and Emry, Jade and Artemis, and I’m curious who we will have this segment.
I think it may be more “family” than just “siblings” but it’s still a great! I really hope we get Jason and Dick as bros this season!
Yeah OP qualified that the sibling relationships were specifically sisters but M'comm and M'gann had a bigger dynamic than M'gann and Em'ree. Also Shiva and Cassandra for parental relationships.
> Jason and Dick as bros this season!
I've been thinking, what if the solve the magic plot early and leave the last mini arc for a less risky storyline exploring what happened to Jason culminating on the red hooded ninja taking off his mask?
Yes!! I really kinda want this arc to be the last one so we can see how everything plays out after all the character arcs are over! Also, sorry for replying so late, I didn’t see this reply 😂
I have yet to see a family that rivals the dysfunction of the Crocks and Wu-Sans.
Let’s hope not lol
You act as if the Crocks are comparable with the Wu-sans, rather than outclassed.
If you want to force it, we also had Babs and Cass and probably will have Dick and Jason next.
This segment might give us Mary and Billy.
Child and klarion both being chaos lords kinda makes them siblings
That seems to be just a small sample size.
Is it just me or it seems like certain siblings hang out with other siblings more than others and at least from what we see it's the same groups
I feel like it’s hard, not to hang out with certain siblings that are closer to your age than younger ones. Like Lilee, Luke, SaiDee, NayVee are all within a year or so of each other. Paislee is 6 years younger than Lilee.
The P’s are identical to each other in looks and interests and about 2 years apart.
B & L - are the 2 youngest boys and share some of the same interests. But they’re also 5 years apart in age.
I feel like E & D, do their own thing. But hang out sometimes together. But again, they’re 2 years apart.
Question how old is Luke I thought he was 15? And yeah but I’ve also seen PaisLee and NayVee hang out a lot despite having a 3 year difference of sum but NayVee isn’t seen hanging out with DelayNee who’s ALSO the same age as PaisLee
Luke just turned 16 at the end of March. Big P & N may have more in common ( make up, boys, fashion, etc), I feel like big P also try’s to act more mature for her age - so she can hang out with the older kids. D is more into sports, and only started getting into make up within the last year or so.
3 years isnt even much?
well they're siblings, their not all friends.
But the fact they claim to all be family tho. When certain people get left out
I’d assume that’s normal in a family so large. Different ages, interests, personalities, schedules…all would contribute to that. To elaborate on personalities, some people just click better than others, including in families.
I mean it doesn’t help some people get favorited by Tiffany
so happy to see that the god awful hunt siblings aren’t on the list
I don’t think megan is that awful 😅 I kinda like the megan/teddy sisterly bond. The worst thing about that whole gang is evidently owen 🙄
mer and amelia, hands down. watching them go from heated debates and harsh words, mer telling amelia that she wasn’t her sister, to mutual tolerance, sharing vulnerabilities, and becoming as close they are now .. they have one of the most beautiful relationships on the show.
mer: “i don’t always like you.”
amelia: slightly hurt. “wow, okay.”
mer: “but it doesn’t matter. because you’re family. i love you.” 😭
one of my favourite moments is at amelia’s wedding to owen where she’s having a breakdown, and meredith tells her that she’s her ‘person’. whatever amelia wants, she’ll do it. she’ll kick her down the aisle, she’ll give her a shoulder to cry on, she’ll tell her she’s beautiful, or drive the getaway car (which she did!) :)
This. It's chosen family not blood family, and their relationship growth.
yea, I always liked that moment between them. and it feels like Amelia's words to Nick in S18E18 are kind of a bookend, or at least showing how much their relationship as sisters grew over the years
>>!Amelia: Yeah. We're gonna miss her a lot.!<
>
>>!Nick: I know. Do you have any questions for me?!<
>
>>!Amelia: Meredith left once before. After my brother died. She just disappeared for a year. She was hundreds of miles away, and I have never felt closer to her. I knew she left because she was drowning in grief and pain here. Same way that I was. I think you make her happy. And she deserves to be happy. Others would have been broken by a fraction of what she's survived. I want her life to be full of love and joy. My only ask of you is just to want that, too.!<
I have 6 sisters and Mer & Amelia are the most relatable for me
Definitely the DeLucas I can relate to them the most. They remind me of me and my little brother.
Definitely the most realistic sibling duo!
Amelia and Addison
My fav omg i loved them in private practice
Meredith and my bb Lexie
Came here to say this but glad it was the top answer
Straight to the point, what are some brother/sister groups that aren't exactly so obvious? (Taking away groups like ONEWE and ONEUS which are a bit obvious) Groups that are actually brother/sister groups but not really shown by that way much.
Lovelyz and Golden Child! Both are under Woollim and many of the members are close with each other (except for Jangjun and Sujeong lol). They’ve done a few variety shows together as well!
shinee/fx (actually this is pretty obvious though :P)
totally could see this maybe with red velvet and exo too though. especially thinking how theyve had collabs together (fx/shinee) and 4 walls was supposed to be shinees apparently and view was supposed to be f(x)s i think (dont quote me on that though but ive heard it quite frequently)
i don’t see much similarity between rv and exo. they both dabble in the r&b genre but that’s about it.
yeah people also have theorized that rv/exo have related aspects in their universes/concepts (and now sm is probably going to try harder to relate the two for SMCU)
and yes, i believe you're right about 4 walls and view!
> 4 walls was supposed to be shinees apparently and view was supposed to be f(x)s i think
People keep saying this everywhere but there's no proof. All we know is that SHINee chose View as their title. But they never said anything about switching out 4walls.
a couple years ago Ryan Jhun (one of the producers of View) said that it was originally f(x)'s title track and 4 Walls was for Shinee but they preferred each others songs so they switched them
Mamamoo and Vromance,Vromance is meant to be a male counterpart to Mamamoo when it comes to vocals(some of the members were even MMM's vocal coaches),sadly no one seems to remember them when talking about RBW groups
never thought of that one, thats actually very cool
Others have mentioned some SM groups, but the brother/sister thing has been pretty intentional since 2nd gen in the company:
TVXQ/CSJH (vocal-focused, acappella)
Super Junior/SNSD (huge groups)
SHINee/f(x) (musically distinct/unusual sound)
EXO/Red Velvet (more conceptually focused)
NCT/aespa (pushing marketing/technology)
Could probably describe them differently and it has gotten fuzzier more recently as the turnover of new groups has slowed a bit. But the general idea is that a boy group would debut and a girl group would follow with a somewhat compatible/like-minded concept.
2nd gen? This goes back to 1st gen. SES was created as the female counterpart of HOT and frequently shared the stage in collaborations.
Yep yep. I was only hesitant to include HOT/SES since I wasn't around at the time to experience how intentional it felt that early on. I don't know if it was planned even prior to HOT's debut or if it happened naturally as a result of them being the first two pop groups and it just made sense to market SES that way.
But it probably doesn't really matter. Obviously it was a model they stuck with regardless of how much it was planned ahead of time.
