House of Cards cast question

tnt wrote 8 years ago: 1

Are we considering all of the actors in the opening credits as main cast?

Looks like some actors (Colm Feore, Dominique McElligott, Damian Young etc.), that was listed in opening credits in season 4 are added as guest stars, hence the question. Is it a human error, or some kind of decision was made about that?

Everyone in opening should be main cast, so it was a human error :)

Not really a cast question, but the same series. There’s a position in the opening credits: “Based on Original Designs by Donald Graham Burt”, and I’m not sure how to add him. As production designer or as art director? Could somebody help me?

UPD. Case closed. Since he was credited as production designer in the pilot episode, I just left him as such.

Is it necessary to include everyone who receives a show credit, if the credit isn’t on the TVMaze list? It seems that after a certain point, you get into interpretation and opinion (no matter how well-informed) rather than fact.

I’m not saying every credit ever used should be added. Just that if TVMaze uses a (relatively) limited list, it seems like the site needs to choose either not adding everyone. Or get into interpretation.

I’m just always trying to enter at least all of the opening credits.

Another question :)

In season 2 there’s a lot of guest stars, which are not listed in credits. Apparently they were imported from IMDb or something. There’s basically no way of confirming their presence in the episodes apart from re-watching the whole season. So, what to do with them, delete or leave as Uncredited?

Unless you know for sure that someone didn't appear in the episode at all, I wouldn't just delete an entry someone else added. But if they don't appear in the credits, changing them to "Uncredited" would be valid and harmless.

That's what i did in the end. Thanks for heads up.
