Discuss The Good Fight

I have several questions about the data that I contributed to the show (episodes 1&2 of season 1 are released now):

1. About the Regular Cast

In the press material from CBS that was published before the show started, both actress Sarah Steele and actor Justin Bartha were mentioned as being a part of the regular cast. BUT:

-> Sarah Steele (Marissa Gold) is not in episode 1, she's also not credited in the opening credits of episode 1.
-> Justin Bartha (Colin Morrello) is not in episode 1 and 2, he's also not credited in the opening credits of both episodes.

So, what's the rule here - are they "regular cast" or "guest stars"? Do I make my TMDb contributions according to the press material or according to the opening credits in the actual show?

-> I deleted both of them from the season cast, because they're not in every episode - I think that's correct.
-> Moderator David Haller added them again as regular cast and deleted them among the guest stars - I don't think that's correct.

Also: David Haller changed the value "add_to_every_season" for all the people within the "regular cast" from "false" to "true". I don't understand why because there's only 1 season, yet. That doesn't make sense to me.

2. About the Creators of the Show

It turns out that there's a third creator for the show according to the opening credits: Phil Alden Robinson.

But the data field "Created By" is already locked and I can't add him. Can somebody please add Phil Alden Robinson to the creators?

3. About the Runtime of the Show

Every episode of the show has a different runtime: The first one is 49 min, the second is 53 min, and I know that all the others also vary. But I can only add one single runtime per show, not per episode, and it works only with numbers, not text. What should I do?

4. About the Certification of the Show

In articles about the show I found both "TV-MA" and "TV-14" regarding the certification. I have no idea where to look up the official certification - how to find out?

5. Duplicate Backdrop for Episode 2

This is a duplicate of a backdrop for episode 2 that can be deleted:

6. Wrong Backdrops for Episodes 1 & 2

Some of the backdrops that David Haller and I uploaded for the specific episodes 1 and 2 don't belong to these. They are all from the official CBS press material - but after watching the episodes those scenes were not in it. Which means this material is obviously incorrect - what should we do about that? I would delete those incorrect backdrops:

-> From Episode 1:

https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/original/o63koeBUOtzAJv9cgb7JM07U5JE.jpg

-> From Episode 2:

I think those are all my questions at the moment. Sorry there are so many ... worried

Best wishes,

Yes, I'm following. Wait and see is the only option at this point. That also gives us time to figure something out.

Yes, let's just wait and see what happens during the season.

Hey @janar72 I deleted a few of your pictures that I think are below our standards. Ex: one, two and three

Basically, don't bother uploading stills/posters/promo pictures if they don't look good at full size. @lineker could probably explain it better than me stuck_out_tongue

As for screencaps, they are not not allowed, but unless they come from an amazingly good quality source, they don't really compare to HQ stills. worried

I also replaced some of your smaller stills from the first episode with HQ stills I found (totally by accident)! thumbsup_tone4

Yes, you always have to look at the finished picture. So if the quality of the original image is so-so you sometimes have to make the image smaller to get the correct quality.

We once had a case where a user added images directly from a promotional site, but we decided some of the images were not up to our quality standards.

My problem is: All those 3 examples you listed look perfectly fine here on my little notebook, and I don't have any other screen to check out the quality. Number 3 is arguable, but especially number 1 looks very good here on my screen. Unfortunately, I don't know how I could prevent uploading pictures that look good to me, but bad on your screens - I have no other possibility than my notebook ... worried

The new one's look great - thanks! smiley

I'll try to do that in the future, but as I just wrote to @banana_girl - those pictures all looked good here on my screen and I have no other at hand.

Okay, I understand that. I'll try to upload the best one's I can find and that look good to me, and if you're not okay with them, just delete them. I'll understand ...

I understand, but then you have to be a bit careful with your image uploads. We don't want a situation where a moderator has to check all image uploads by a user. Number 1 was indeed the best of the three, but still a bit fuzzy if you know what you are looking for. The others should look bad also on a small screen. Check the area where the text is for number 2, for example.

The pictures are all pixelated. They should be smooth and clear. Especially the third one, but you can also see it very clearly in the logo/text part of the other ones. Did you view them in full size? Sometimes you have to click on the picture because it doesn't show it in full size by default. On full size, every picture looks the same on every screen.

Okay, I will be careful uploading images in the future. It's really weird: I try to see what you're describing about the area where the text is in example no. 2, but it looks fine to me. Maybe I should go see a doctor about that? weary

Yes, I did view them in full size before I uploaded them, and I searched for them in high resolutions. Even now, when I look at them, in full size, it's fine for my eyes ... pensive

Anyway, I'll be more careful in the future and try to prevent those. I don't know how but I will try ...

This one looks much clearer (not the same, but the basis is alike, so it might be easier to spot the disturbance in your picture. http://cdn4.thr.com/sites/default/files/2016/12/goodfight_poster_publicity-_embed_2016.jpg

Sorry, Marr, I just don't see it. It's okay, don't waste your time on this problem. I'll be more careful and think twice before uploading pictures that might be of bad quality standards ...

I re-open this because:

I just watched episode 3 of the show, and I can confirm that the following 2 backdrops definitely belong to episode 3 and not episode 1:

https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/original/fjPiHmQc6sFLO3RxnHZZTOrxRu6.jpg

I already uploaded both of them to episode 3 - can someone please delete both of them for episode 1?

Thanks! smiley

Best wishes,

Done!

I re-open this because: Can someone delete the following 2 backdrops, please? innocent

For episodes 4:

https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/original/t1fRF8iyjzBxdtNLM2ITACdtYBt.jpg -> better one is here

For episode 5:

https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/original/6VuWQvLuzxvmmVbcoTDqjKywZY7.jpg -> better one is here

Thank you! smiley
