  1. At least this one appears to be an homage rather than a blatant rip-off. . . .

    Yes, it is...I want to have this feature open to both extremes (and everything in the middle): swipes, homages, parodies, pastiches, and sheer coincidences. I'm not certain the series title "Separated at Birth" supports that, so it might require a short text disclaimer each Saturday.
