Personally, I don't like anything that appears on HPR with anything
other than HPR branding.
Any recurring cast which seeks its own identity/label/title, is, IMHO, a
parasite.
Why not just produce the same content without the extra layer of branding?

Going down the page that shows all of the tags for each starting letter,
there is nothing but a 'go to index' link between each.
For example between the 'k' page and the 'l page.

Or should we just have each tag as a heading and then each show having
