The multi-faceted actor and writer pointed out how “flirty” these characters tend to act towards each other, and tons of people immediately agreed.
With white families on tv, the brothers and sisters are always, like flirty with each other

In fact, fans even provided examples to back up Mindy’s claim. Here are just some of the borderline incestuous TV siblings that have graced our screens throughout the years:
1.
Casey and Derek from Life with Derek were one of the most popular examples…

Derek and Casey are step-siblings.

Callie and Brandon from The Fosters:
Callie was technically their foster child but it was still weird b/c even when they finally adopted her, she & the bio son were still hella flirty https://t.co/vRpqwcGdYy

Lu and Valerio are half-siblings. They share the same father.
6.
Cher and Josh from Clueless:
So I was going to post this because no one had but in the course of looking for photos I realized that Clueless stills prove there really was a time when Paul Rudd actually looked younger than his eternal age https://t.co/AmdIXChURJ
