	*That makes a lot of sense. Masi and Sendhil were announced as having "recurring roles", even though their characters are only going to appear in three episodes each. Plus, it wouldn't feel right listing either of them as minor characters... -[[User:Kon\|Kon]] ([[User talk:Kon\|talk]]) 11:31, 2 October 2015 (EDT)		*That makes a lot of sense.

			** I want to be clear that the "recurring" or "supporting" description don't always match with what actors or NBC says. Principal characters are set by a contract with the actor, so that's indisputable. But "recurring" or "supporting" is more of a judgment thing, and actors and studios usually base that distinction on how "important" a character is to a story. I've seen characters only appear once or twice, but be considered supporting characters because they are really important to story lines. I've also seen shows where characters literally appear in every episode, but they're never listed as more than a minor character because they're not very important to the story. Here at the wiki, we try to take away the judgment part and make the distinction between minor (or guest) and supporting (or recurring) a subjective decision rather than an objective decision. So I'm not sure how many episodes Sendhil or Masi are going to appear in ... but if it's just one, they'll be considered guest actors and minor characters for the season. If it's 3 or more (since that what it sounds like we're settling on), then they'll be considered supporting cast and recurring characters for the season. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 11:58, 2 October 2015 (EDT)

	''[[Heroes Reborn]]'' is a short season (13 episodes), like [[Season Two]] (11 episodes). For all seasons, we would consider a character to be recurring after 4 appearances, but Season Two characters were considered recurring after 3 appearances. I would suggest that ''Heroes Reborn'' characters are considered recurring after 3 appearances, also. Any comments or opposition? -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 10:12, 2 October 2015 (EDT)		''[[Heroes Reborn]]'' is a short season (13 episodes), like [[Season Two]] (11 episodes).
