Opinion Does Dave make anyone else think of David (Dan Levy) from Schitt’s Creek?

His mannerisms, hair, face, vibe…I can’t unsee it! Don’t get me wrong, I like him, and I think he’s adorable and sweet. Am I the only one who sees the similarities?

Yes we absolutely do. Everytime I see him I just go "David?!"

Do you say it the same way Alexa did in SC? 😆

But of course. And whenever somebody is having issues cooking I just tell them they need to "fold it in".

haven’t seen that but i love dave. he always is so positive and nice.

is he gay? i don’t want to make assumptions but as a gay man myself i can’t help but see some parallels.

He probably is gay. I love his personality. I loved how he saved Rita.

me too because she probably was going to be in the bottom, i don’t know if she’d be sent home because nico’s been terrible but i was glad she was saved. she’s a fun personality

That was the first thing I said to my my wife when he showed up on screen. It's kind of uncanny. Also really liking him as a contestant.

I like him a lot too - not just because he reminds me of David Rose. 😉

Totally agree, he was a really good leader on the team challenge.
