Saruman a copy-cat? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Saruman didn't really copy Gandalf except for the pipe thing, and the Shire. He was more jealous of him, and it explains this quite well in the book of 'Unfinished Tales'. It's quite interesting really, Saruman keeps his pipeweed secret from gandalf because he is embarrased, and visited the Shire secretly, so that people at first thought he was Gandalf but then Gandalf found out. Silly Saruman!
