I have noticed that all references of StarGate SG1 are removed from biographies. is there something wrong with the SG1 series ?

I cannot understand why the biographies for SciFi actors are not including their time on the Stargate SG1, SG Atlantis are ignored in your reviews. What's up with that, the SG series were great SciFi.

Since Stargate SG-1 is my all time favorite TV show, I had to check this out and see if it's correct. I picked an episode and looked at the cast listings, then picked an actor that was lesser known...I picked Isaac Hayes who had a recurring role as a Jaffa priest on several episodes. When I went to his IMDb page, there was no mention of Stargate SG-1 even though he is listed as a cast member in the IMDb Stargate SG-1 page.

I further discovered that Isaac Hayes, who DIED in 2008, is listed as a writer in numerous projects over the years since his death up through to the present (2021). How this is possible, I have no idea.

I am quickly losing faith and trust in IMDb.

OK, it looks like Isaac Hayes is being credited with working on movies and TV shows because the songs that he wrote are being used in them. Still seems ridiculous to list a dead person as part of a cast when they died years before the film or show was ever created. This practice on IMDb will make for much chaos and confusion.

I don't see a problem. If the problem is still there, please give an example.

Isaac Hayes was on several episodes of Stargate SG-1. If you go to the IMDb page for the TV show, it lists him as a cast member for certain episodes. But when you go to his IMDb page, Stargate SG-1 is not in his list of TV and movie roles.

Yes, it is in the list.

How are you accessing IMDb? Desktop, mobile, app?

See attached screen shot of what I see when I go to Isaac Hayes' IMDb page. He was on Stargate in 2005. It's not listed.

You are looking at the soundtrack portion of Isaac Hayes' biography. If you click down to actor, he is listed as being in Stargate.

My information is associated with actor bios on other programs like Star Trek Voyager played through Amazon Prime.

Ah, found it, thank you Adrian. I didn't know IMDb separated out the different types of credits into sections like that.

@payned I looked at a few IMDb bios for SG-1 cast, and the series is mentioned. I don't know about Amazon Prime.
