Currently there is no rules about how the main cast members of a show should be listed.  For instance in the X-Files, some of them have David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson listed above the episodes, while others have them duplicated at the top of each episode.

What are peoples' thoughts on this?

Skip, it's the same way it's being done here in Quebec. Re-do the referendum even few years until you get the answer you want 

Yes, that was a political statement. No, I won't do it again! Sorry! And for those that don't know what I'm talking about, the very first paragraph, here, says it all.

And I have no real opinion about this issue. I don't mind it either way, though I do have a slight preference to having the regular cast above the first divider, but because of the mess of trying to define what a "regular cast" is, I understand the logic to repeat everything in each episode.

In all fairness to TommyG the discussion was burried pretty deep and did happen before the *gulp* lock-out 

now if the rules committee would get off it's butt... (kidding)

I know we had a Presidential Candidate try that approach a few years ago.               Recount...Ok....You still lost, recount it again....OK....you still lost.

And I think he still wants another recount.

Sometimes I wonder what exactly was so wrong with the pre-rules approach over at IVS?
In those old times, TV cast was frequently done this way: Name as Role (ep numbers), e.g.:

John Doe as Jimmy (1,4,10-17)

And, just in case there are those who don't know how the system works here, popular vote doesn't win the election - Electoral College vote does.
