9. Kaitlin Cooper – The O.C.
Okay, children on television shows have a bit more leeway than adults. After all, no one knows exactly how someone is going to look as they age, and many child actors decide to leave the entertainment industry to pursue normal careers (or to just have fun in regular after-school activities like soccer). However, Marissa Cooper’s little sister on The O.C. was a bit too much of a swap, even for Hollywood. One season, Kaitlin Cooper was a very young looking Shailene Woodley who looked straight out of grade school. Then, all of a sudden, the tall, gorgeous Willa Holland returned from boarding school to become a regular part of the cast. Couldn’t they have just said Marissa had another sister rather than trying to make us believe Kaitlin aged about ten years in a few episodes?
