Same actor, multiple roles

Hi.

I came across with a TV series where only one actor is playing all the parts. That is nothing new, but the interesting part is that ALL the character names are credited in the end credits and according to my count 18 different characters are listed. So instead of "Several characters", I should list 18 different characters. Is this fine (meaning, that are there some limits)? I have of course screencaps for the data editors.

Thanks.

Eboy: I would recommend listing all the characters if they are all named in the end credits. See http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0270278/fullcredits for an example where one person played 17 characters in a TV movie.

I don't see that there is a problem. Orphan Black has one actress playing multiple roles and recently I was able to update Ducktales with a single voice actor with 8 or 10 voice roles that were credited. I would find it hard for IMDb to reject them, especially if you have screen caps.
