Separated at Birth? Television Edition

First up we have Dan Abrams, the host of MSNBC’s “Verdict with Dan Abrams” and chief legal correspondent for NBC News. Dan is something of a boy wonder, having served as an anchor and reporter for Court TV, and then having his own program on MSNBC, "The Abrams Report," while still a thirtysomething, before being named General Manager of MSNBC.

Dan looks an awful like like another television boy wonder from a few decades ago -- the original Boy Wonder, Batman's sidekick Robin, a/k/a Dick Grayson, who in real life was known as Burt Ward.
In fact, if I didn't know that Dan Abrams is the son of famous first amendment attorney Floyd Abrams, I might think that Dan and Burt were Separated at Birth.

They both may well be wunderkind, but their noses say they are not related. Dan has a rather ethnic nose, wouldn't you say?

That must have escaped me. I looke at both of them and thought: twins!
