@naga Yeah I pretty much pause shows to ask my wife "Should I know this person?" any time a character comes in with a new outfit. Also sometimes when they're exactly the same as they were in the previous scene but the vibe is different, or there are too many blond characters. She giggles at me, but we've gotten used to it.

@epilanthanomai It's hair changes that are worst for me. Facial hair changes for men. More often style changes for women (commonly when going to a formal event or, conversely, letting their hair down). Or a character actually wearing a disguise -- totally different character (and actor) to me. Glasses can mess me up, but not usually as badly. Sadly, it's about as hard in real life. I can usually pick up on it when somebody speaks. That's how I recognized Jalan that time as the stranger who'd sat down across from me at an otherwise empty restaurant.
