This Sunday before Mad Men, AMC will officially launch its third original series, Rubicon, which follows the adventures of Will Travers, a brilliant think-tank intelligence analyst whose bosses might be up to no good. Some viewers may have already noticed, though, that Travers bears more than a passing resemblance to another popular TV Will — Glee’s Mr. Schue, who shares a similar bone structure, hairstyle, and penchant for breaking into song (just kidding about that last one, we think). How to tell them apart? Our handy guide, after the jump.
