    Andrew Frame and G.O.B. from Arrested Development

    Now this is uncanny. Several commenters note that Andrew Frame, the narcissistic founder of Ooma, is the spitting image of George Oscar Bluth II, one of the characters in Arrested Development. Frame — a 27-year-old modelizer who persuaded DFJ and Founders Fund to put millions into a phone box that has yet to appear — had better hope the resemblance is merely physical. His alter ego in the cult TV show, who goes by the nickname G.O.B. and rides a Segway, plays an unsuccessful professional magician whose business and personal schemes usually fail.

On the right, G.O.B., played by the wonderful comic actor, Will Arnett.]
