Why do TV shows, prominently those that are sci-fi/fantasy, have opening credits sequences where we see the name of each actor but when they reveal the name of the last "main" actor in the sequence they also give us the as clause? For example: In the first season of Stargate Atlantis the opening sequence says:
And
David Hewlett
as Dr McKay
Is this character more important? Why didn't they say:
Joe Flanigan
as Major Sheppard
and so on and so forth?
