The cast is trying to choose among several items that are, they insist, subtly different in some way. One character is fed up with their dithering, because as far as he or she can tell, they're all the same. Sometimes inverted, with one character insisting on a difference that nobody else perceives. Either way, and whether or not a difference actually exists, usually the audience can't see the difference. Most commonly seen with subtle color differences, but can be anything, even identical-seeming people. Generally Played for Laughs. Often appears with Limited Wardrobe, Evil Twin, Planet of Steves, Those Two Guys, and/or Only Sane Man. Compare and contrast Shell Game, Spot the Imposter, Needle in a Stack of Needles, and I Am Spartacus. This may be used to indicate Hyper-Awareness, or as one of the components of a Sherlock Scan. |

The Penguins of Madagascar: The lemurs need to install a cooling device on the zoo's furnace before it explodes. The device has seven colored knobs; according to Kowalski, who is giving instructions by walkie-talkie, they are red, crimson, scarlet, brick, salmon, ruby and rose. The lemurs are only supposed to turn the scarlet knob, but to them (and to us) they just look the same shade of red. | |

Narbonic The super-intelligent gerbils are completely unable to tell each other apart. Helen, the Mad Scientist who created them, easily plucks the original out of the herd. Dave can easily distinguish between Professor Madblood's fifteen thousand robotic duplicates, casually referring to them by number. This actually freaks out the robots, since they're supposed to be completely identical. |

In one This Time Round story, it's revealed that the Mirror Universe counterpart of Bob the Muse is named ... Bob. (Otherside counterparts of authors and muses generally have names that are altered to refer to death and destruction).

When they only have one last chance to make a good photo and escape the booth, Marco points out that only difference between the photos is that the earlier ones were from before Star admitted to having a crush on him at the end of the previous season, which he never got the courage to talk with her about in the months since. | |

Diff'rent Strokes: An early first-season episode, "Goodbye, Dolly," revolves around Arnold's prized doll being sold at an apartment-wide garage sale. Apparently, his mother had given it to him when he was a toddler, hence his abnormal attachment to it (it represents his mother and his connection to her), and Arnold is unable to sleep or even cope with his life after he realizes it to be missing; Drummond had absent-mindedly sold it. The trope kicks in when a private detective — unable to track down the doll's new owner — has a new one made, but Arnold immediately can tell the difference. (It is implied that Arnold eventually gets counseling and gets over the loss of the doll.) | |

There was a Saturday Night Live sketch about two Americans, Mike and Beverly, meeting a bizarre foreign couple (as in, an odd mishmash of Japanese and Scandinavian stereotypes), named Nooni and Nooni. Any time Mike said either name, Nooni or Nooni would immediately point out that he'd gotten them mixed up. Even though the only difference between the two names was which syllable was emphasized (and Nooni himself wasn't consistent on which name received which emphasis). | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: "Trade Ya!": Rarity finds a vintage brooch that Applejack insists is identical to the one that Rarity is already wearing. Rarity insists the vintage one is better because it's older. "The Crystalling – Part 1": While showing Shining Armor crystals and asking him to choose one for the Crystalling ceremony, Rarity mentions that she arranged them in order of purity. Fluttershy points out that they all look the same. "Uncommon Bond": At an antique shop, Sunburst picks up two identical-looking bricks and show them to Starlight Glimmer. In "Honest Apple", Applejack's brutally honest opinions on fashion lead her to calling out Hoity Toity and Photo Finish when the two are arguing about which of a pair of virtually identical belts would be a better accessory with a particular outfit. |

Pokémon: The Series: Although it's possible to tell Officer Jennys and Nurse Joys apart by the color and shape of the symbols on their hats, they otherwise look identical to one another. Brock can reliably tell them apart, but it's by traits such as slight differences in hair style or the type of perfume they use that are impossible for the audience to perceive. All mons of the same variety look identical to the audience, but Pokémon trainers can distinguish their five Magnemite or other multiple individuals of the same species. |
