i've been having a running problem with the last several tv shows i've watched: there are like four recurring white guys and i just cannot tell them the fuck apart. sometimes i don't even realize they're separate characters until people address them by name. i'm not face blind as far as i know — it's just that the range of "20-something white man sufficiently attractive for us to put in front of a camera" has become so microscopic that they might as well be growing them in vats. you can't even vary the hair as readily as with women because that implies some kind of particular personality quirk, like a blonde man is either a himbo or Extremely Swedish. what the fuck is going on
is it just me though
the protagonist is doing a sort of love angle thing with these two guys and all i can think is "well that's convenient, they're the same guy anyway". i can only keep them straight in this scene because they're wearing different color shirts
you don’t get this issue in its source material Infernal Affairs (2002) because one of the guys there is Tony Leung
