Story editors on Prodigal Son

Can a staff member reach out to whoever edited the writers credit on the first episode of season 2 of Prodigal Son and let them know that just because the story editors appear on separate title pages, does not mean they are in separate writers groups? I'd really hate to have to change these credits all season long because someone doesn't understand the ordering of writing credits.

Hi Adrian -

Can you clarify (ideally with an example) of the exact writer credit issue you encountered? Was the main issue with the credit order numbers?

Yes. The problem is with the credit order numbers. Some contributors, who evidently haven't read the help section, believe that because story editors appear on separate screens that means they are in separate rewrite groups, so you end up with:

Screen 1 story editor #1

Screen 2 story editor #2

Screen 3 story editor #3

This gets credited as

story editor #1 (story editor) x,1,1

story editor #2 (story editor) x,2,1

story editor #3 (story editor) x,3,1

when it should be credited as

story editor #1 (story editor) x,1,1

story editor #2 (story editor) x,1,2

story editor #3 (story editor) x,1,3

Hi Adrian -

Thanks for confirming the credit order issue, I have reached out to the contributor to request that they review our guidelines again before making further credit order submissions.

Thanks again!
