This section may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The specific problem is: Per WP:TVCAST we either use a cast list, or we use a character list. In either scenario, brief character descriptions and real-world content would be included. Having both a Cast list and a Character list is needlessly repetitive. If it makes more sense to organise the list by Character, then we should do that, but both lists would need to be merged, and again presented in Main and Recurring lists. (June 2018) |
