| | Posted: | | | | Quick question.
Updating the Canadian profile for Charmed: The Final Season.
For episode 17, during the end cast credits, this appears:
Appearing in Clip Footage
Eric Dane
Nick Lachey
Julian McMahon
Billy Zane
Should they be added to the cast list? I think I read somewhere on the boards that actors appearing in clip footage SHOULDN'T be entered into the cast. I however, can't seem to find anything in the rules specifying that they shouldn't be entered, and they are technically credited for the episode.
Thoughts?
And thanks! | | | | The night is calling. And it whispers to me soflty come and play. |

| | Posted: | | | | If they're credited as such on-screen, among the "normal" cast members, then I'd be inclined to enter them. Previous debates were, if I remember correctly, more about uncredited (archive footage) entries: entering David Hasselhoff as such when somewhere in the film, someone walks past a TV-screen with a 'Knight Rider' episode playing on it. That I certainly wouldn't award with an entry in DVD Profiler. But if these people are credited as part of the normal cast, then I'd include them, I think. |

| | Posted: | | | | Yeah, they're definitely credited. The way the end credits role, there are some executive story editors and such, then under the heading "Co-Starring" (or featuring, depending on the episode) it lists a bunch of actors and character names, and then for this episode, directly after that, the appearing in clip footage actors come up. And in the episode, it's a time travel episode, so one of the main characters goes back and watches past periods of her life, which is when all the actors appear. It's obviously the exact same footage that aired in the previous episodes, but it's edited in to the new episode, as part of the episode (not as you said, just a poster or like, a clip on the t.v. or something).
I did enter them with the character name and then (Clip Footage) as of now. Haven't submitted it yet though, still working on the last episodes.
Thanks very much for the thoughts and the help! | | | | The night is calling. And it whispers to me soflty come and play. |

| | Posted: | | | | The Dutch profile ( 8714865553879) already has those in the cast list. I agree with T!M, if they appear in the credits, then they should be added. | | | View my collection at http://www.chriskepolis.be/home/dvd.htm

| | Posted: | | | | They're part of the cast credits, so, yes, they should be entered. | | | | Hal |

I hadn't looked specifically at the Dutch profile, just the U.S. one as I was referencing character names. Thanks for the replies guys. I did complete the profile update with them in the cast list for the episode and submitted it as such. Muchly appreciated!! | | | | The night is calling. And it whispers to me soflty come and play. |
