It would seem that J. R. Ewing of Dallas fame, and Riley Parks, played by Jennifer Love Hewitt, of the new show The Client List, both have officially verified Twitter accounts. Not the actors that play the characters, mind you, but the actual characters themselves. While this is certainly an interesting way to advertise and promote a product — in this case, television shows — Twitter verifying people that aren’t actually real and therefore cannot actually be verified seems a little silly, and takes away from the whole point of verification.
