Who's the weakest link on 'Heroes'?

Sep 28, 2007, 05:50 PM | by Michael Slezak

Categories: 'Heroes', Television

Heroes_l Look, I've never missed an episode of Heroes. It's good escapist fun. But that doesn't mean the show doesn't have its problems. I've been mulling it over all week, and my nominees for worst performance on the Heroes season premiere are...

• James Kyson Lee (Ando, pictured left): I've seen more nuanced performances on Scooby-Doo (yeah, the animated series) than his cartoon/awful reaction shot to the assassination of Hiro's father Kaito (George Takei).

• Sendhil Ramamurthy (Mohinder, center): As I've noted before, somebody's Mo-hindering my enjoyment of Heroes. And while Ramamurthy was marginally less unconvincing on Monday than he was for most of season one, he still managed to get upstaged by a spoon. Okay, a gold spoon, but still...

• Adair Tishler (Molly, right) Yes, she's a child actor, but I bet she makes more money than you and me put together. Which makes her fair game. So let's not pretend her precocious-precious performance isn't grating as hell.

And the award goes to... well, I leave it up to you, Heroes fans. Declare the winner recipient in the comments section below. Or else tell me why I'm an idiot. Readers' choice!

Claire is the one that gets me. Maybe if she grated her teeth a little harder while she spoke I'd be able to maintain my willing suspension of disbelief, but I doubt it.

Too many TV actors are going for the stiff jaw, expressive eyes, pennslyvania newscaster dialect and clarity in speech.

Mohinder character is not that bad he is just boring because someone has to be like that in that crazy series, as someone said he represents us - ordinary people. And he is so good looking, that exotic guy can't go out.

Heather Tue, Mar 25, 2008 at 07:18 PM EST

It's been months, but I must speak after much thinking
Nikki/Jessica, I like. Ali does a pretty good job trying to make this character likeable. It's just that, like everyone else, we see her and go, "To the Mental Ward". Not weak.
Ando and Hiro can sometimes make me mad with their "heroes" destiny jist but they're not weak. Just overrated.
Molly, whatever. She's in a coma half the time.
Mohinder, he was better when Sylar (Wonderful, wonderful acting) came around, but was still so dull.
Matt's scenes I hated, but that may be beacuse of his annoying wife (So glad he divorced her). If he turns bad, his character might be boosted.
Peter is boring. And not that pretty. But he can do.
Who do I think are the weakest links?
All the men eye-candy
Maya: When she got shot, that was just bad. Zombie much? So bad there's a lack of glee for her even in her own castmates.
Claire: If season 3 deals with her stupid high school issues AGAIN, then...
Elle: Kristen Bell=Overrated.

stanley Wed, Jan 9, 2008 at 11:00 PM EST

Molly the little girl is so pretty, she NEEDS to stay. In fact, if she dies I will stop watching the show... In fact she needs to be the one to kill Sylar in the end--think about it, he killed her parents and it would be the most appropriate ending.

but mainly because she's pretty and she is the only reason i watch that show. I want them to give her more screen time!!!!! Her performance is NOT gratng because she's such an amazing and beautiful actress :|

-Stanley

me yet again Sat, Dec 29, 2007 at 06:54 AM EST

Hmm this has happened before. I should learn my lesson... I have ups and downs with heroes. One minute I don't like it, and the next minute I do. I commented after I think Season 2 episode 3 or 4. But now I am up to 4 or 5 and it was a REALLY good episode. That black girl who I thought was promising... well she had the coolest episode ever. I wont explain incase someone is reading who hasn't seen up to this part yet. But other characters where great in this episode too. Some of them aren't very good at acting, and a few are really annoying, and the story does drag on fooorrreeeeevvveeeeeeerrrrrrr.......

..but sometimes it is just so compelling. After this last episode it got me really excited to see what happens next. I have to give it credit for doing that. I just hope it doesn't lose me again near the end of the seasons, like what happened in season 1. I'll see I suppose.

me again Fri, Dec 28, 2007 at 03:35 AM EST

Ehhh now that I really think about it... I know I just mentioned half the cast, but the other half piss me off too. Ando is indeed lame. The old dude is dead. Niki and her miniature lionel ritchie son just piss me off. They are both boring and useless and she just doesn't belong on tv imo - except porn. Peter is cool because he can do everything but he annoys me too and the amnesia story is dire. His brother annoys me too, beard or no beard. The young blonde girl is hot but she annoys me too. And so does her new boyfriend. They bring some kinda dawsons creek angle or whatever, but I dont like them either. I think I hate everyone on this show and I hope it ends so people will stop telling me I am lame for not watching it. There is one exception though. The new black girl that works in the burger place. I like her. She is quite promising.

frank zappa's ghost Fri, Dec 28, 2007 at 03:29 AM EST

Mohinder is handsome yeah, but he annoys me too and he isn't a good actor. Sometimes he is GREAT, but 98% of the time he is bad. Besides him, I don't like Matt either. I don't find him believable as a tough guy, a hero, a cop, or a detective. I know people like him in real life, and they all work in a boring office. And lastly, Molly... I hate her. She overacts and she is just so horrible. HORRIBLE little spoilt child actor brat. I bet she is good in interviews because she is so full of herself. If she was older and a guy, I would love to beat her up. Ok I'll be honest.. even as a little girl, I want to beat her up. I am still watching the show because I want to see a bad guy rip the top of her head off and blood go all over her stupid little hollywood face. So yeah, I agree with the article, only a bit more violently. Also, this show doesn't really impress me. It drags everything out too long. Most modern shows seem to do that now. And Sylar annoys me too. He looks like a comedy actor

bob Sat, Dec 15, 2007 at 01:39 PM EST

The guy who plays the cop, Matt, is the worst. Such amateur acting!
I don't recall a tv show with so many bad actors.

actualfan Wed, Nov 28, 2007 at 09:36 AM EST

I @**!*&* hate hate hate Ando, I sincerely hope his character dies. Sorry Jason, but really I can't stand you and your horrible horrible japanese. In a TV Guide interview you said 98% of the feed back you got was positive, regarding your japanese? To quite an actual japanese actor, "That's a load of sukiyaki!" Please kill Ando, ANDO MUST DIE!!

Rob Grizzly Thu, Nov 1, 2007 at 11:33 AM EST

Micah, Micah, Micah!

D. Marie Sat, Oct 13, 2007 at 02:53 PM EST

You cant get rid of Ando because Hiro needs him, and Mohinder and Molly are on to something...someone that needs to go is the Irish people....bring Peter back to his family...the plot with the Irish just doesnt fit...nothing agaisnt the Irish!

Khiara Wed, Oct 10, 2007 at 07:12 AM EST

Definitely Mohinder

danny Sat, Oct 6, 2007 at 02:15 PM EST

Did Mr. Sleezak ask all the hot guys on HEROES out on dates and get turned down by them. Why does he hate them so much? Methinks he doth protest WAY too much.

Angel Thu, Oct 4, 2007 at 05:44 AM EST

Is everyone talking "ish" about the actors and actresses on Heroes unemployed can't get a job in Hollywood suck asses

Kevinn Wed, Oct 3, 2007 at 02:17 PM EST

Mohinder is so annyoing I never watch him I just like stare into space

KILL HIM NOW

garciamomma2 Wed, Oct 3, 2007 at 11:32 AM EST

Mohinder usually means its time to go to the bathroom, check on the kids, grab a beer..........I quess he's supposed to be the center the others orbit around in some strange way, but, really, everything just kinda stops when hes on screen........I just dont get it........give him some kind of power to liven it up a little

Marion Wed, Oct 3, 2007 at 01:23 AM EST

Mohinder for sure. He used to be ok, but I am indifferent to his scenes. No excitement or any other feelings there. plain

Beth Tue, Oct 2, 2007 at 11:02 PM EST

I must be in the minority because I think Ali Larter is one of the better actors on the show... it seems like people are criticizing her storyline, not her acting. I think she has one of the more difficult roles, really.

Across the board though, the acting is cheesy and bad. Some are better than others, some are just grating on the nerves... like Parkman's wife, what a b*tch! I'm glad she's gone. Mohinder sucks, Peter is terrible, Hiro grates sometimes, Ando overacts but he's cute. Molly is just so incredibly annoying.

I've remarked at least once an episode how terrible the acting is... but I don't think Ali Larter is the weakest link. I think it's Mohinder.

Bobby Tue, Oct 2, 2007 at 04:13 PM EST

Matt Parkman. He makes me not want to watch the show.

Wayne Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 06:58 PM EST

Definately Nikki, she's boring, not that cool, and needs to go

snee Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 04:23 PM EST

nikki/jessica. meh.

mohinder is a poorly written character, but he is very nicely drawn...

Clarissa Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 04:22 PM EST

Oh, Mohinder. I want to like you, I really do. You are so very pretty. But your delivery is so wooden and stilted, that you make the other actors, even the mediocre ones like Milo Ventimiglia, look like award winners. So yes, someone is Mohindering my ability to enjoy this show.

sTivo Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 03:40 PM EST

Mohinder. Good looks, but horrible actor. I know he is supposed to be to Professor X to these other characters, but c'mon. How many times must we look at his confused face and play connect-the-dots for him? He doesn't know up from down, and in this universe, he should've never gotten so far. It's as though the writers don't like him either, putting him in a common-law partnership with Parkman that seems more "Odd Couiple" than showing sincere concern for the little girl. Death to his character (or lack thereof.)

kate Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 03:14 PM EST

I have hated Milo Ventimiglia's acting since the moment I saw him on TV (which was, I think, "Gilmore Girls"). I'm pretty sure Keanu Reeves got scared that his legend wouldn't carry on so he gave Milo all his acting "secrets."

Lu Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 02:34 PM EST

I agree with Jaclyn. Ali Larter really doesn't have a super power -- she basically has a split personality, and, with a lot of therapy, she's off the show.

donner Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 02:34 PM EST

i feel bad saying mean things about an 8 yr old girl, but I really cannot stand Molly Walker or the actress who plays her...she makes strange movements with her mouth when she talks and she seems as if she's being forced to say her words...Micah on the other hand is a natural child actor and I enjoy his screen-time quite a bit...so ditch Molly, please...

Indestructable Cheerleader Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 02:27 PM EST

Definitely Ando!!

cookie monster Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 02:27 PM EST

Dude, how could you say that about Adair Tishler--especially the way she got upset so--oh, I just read the part where she makes more money than me. ADAIR TISHLER WEAKEST LINK. FYI Does she need to have a map and push pins to make her power work? I smell an evil villain coming on--the Cartographer teaming up with MMM (3M--who makes push pins. get it?)

Leah Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 12:56 PM EST

Definitely Mohinder. I don't like that character and am really tired of his voiceovers. And molly living with him AND parkman is ridiculous. She should have went with DL, Niki and Micah. At least DL and Niki could protect her.

monica Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 12:01 PM EST

I'd go with Ando, but Hiro needs him, so leave him alone.

J.D. Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 11:38 AM EST

I have had a problem with Parkman since day 1. Not to mention I watched him die in last season's finale. I felt remotely cheated that none of the big "deaths" from last season actually happened. Lame.

Jaclyn Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 11:30 AM EST

Ali Larter's character always bugged me. Her plotline just wasn't as cool as everyone else's, and I really didn't like her "Oh, I'm weak" crap. The performance just wasn't good enough to make me feel her pain; it just annoyed me. And yes, Molly needs to step it up. ... And I *heart* Hiro.

melissa Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 10:32 AM EST

None. I like Ando. Molly's OK. I'm sick of the "Sendhil Ramamurthy/Mohinder is a bad actor/dull" complaint. I think he fits just fine in the show. Not the strongest link, but not bad either.

Derek Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 09:16 AM EST

I hate to be down on any actor from a visible minority (since parts are so few and far in between) but Sendhil Ramamurthy is just bad. His fake Indian accent annoys me to no end (I mean, the fact that he does it poorly).

eliz.s. Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 09:16 AM EST

I heart Ando. My vote for weakest link usually goes to Suresh (no matter how gorgeous he is), but I think Molly's melodramatic performance last Monday was weak, weak, weak.

Suz Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 09:11 AM EST

Molly annoys the hell out of me. I hope she's gone soon. I think Mohinder markedly improved. And he's so hot, I forgive him for his stiffness.

Ames Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 09:04 AM EST

People please! It's not like there is an unlimited supply of tall, dark and handsome men in the world. One finally shows up and you want to kill him off? dim-bulb blonds seem to be a dime a dozen on TV, go after one of them. Save Mohinder!

PJ Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 08:46 AM EST

Any time Hiro is relegated to comic relief, he becomes the episode's weak link.

Auriana Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 08:45 AM EST

I actually have no problem with any of the actors/characters named. My least favorite has to be Peter...he's annoying as hell.

dbldn11 Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 08:41 AM EST

I like Mohinder & Ando, and I think both of the actors do a real solid job. Especially Ando, who never gets much to do. Molly is kind of annoying but she is a kid so from me she gets a pass. I think the ensemble is strong overall, and I agree that its the writing that provides us with the characters we come back to see each with. Mama Petrelli is, to me, the weakest. She's pretty brutal.

Dan TO Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 07:41 AM EST

On TV actors are just commodities. Writing is where talent matters. Compare the work Grunberg has done on Heroes to what he's done on Felicity, Lost or Alias and you can see the difference.

Snarf Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 06:30 AM EST

Precousous little moppets that are wise beyond their years make me want to grab wooden chopsticks and gouge my eyes out. The wondertwins are next on my "meh" list.

Trihan Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 06:23 AM EST

Actually, Nathan didn't use his either, but I think I made my point.

Trihan Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 06:21 AM EST

I just had to point out, to whoever said you can count on one hand the number of times a power was used in episode 1...

Hiro stops time before the hail of arrows hits him.
Hiro teleports himself and "Kensei" away from the arrows.
Matt reads the mind of the "hostage" to pass his NYPD test.
Claire holds her hand over a bunsen burner and doesn't hurt herself (I concede that this isn't really using a superpower but a normal person couldn't do it)
Bob uses his power to turn a spoon into gold.
Matt reads Molly's mind when she's having a nightmare.
Claire regenerates after breaking her shins.
Maya's "power" kills a truckload of people.
West hovers outside Claire's window and then flies away.
Peter zaps one of the Irish guys with lightning.

Of all the characters who were featured in the episode, none of the ones with a power didn't use it at some point (except Molly. You could argue that Alejandro was using his by preventing Maya from killing the people to start with, too).

Dana Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 02:59 AM EST

One more thing.

I think good acting is creating a character I would want to date. For every movie I have ever watched (and reviewed for classes, etc.) I grade acting performance based on if the actor created a character I would enjoy going to Starbucks or Olive Garden with for an hour.

Parkman has potential..but I'd have to wear Magneto's mind-blocking helmet first.

Dana Mon, Oct 1, 2007 at 02:49 AM EST

I honestly don't think I've laughed harder in weeks. Child actors deterring people from having kids? Becoming radioactive from listening to cheesy narration? I never realized so many people had problems with the show.

Personally I think Heroes is only a notch above Smallville. Cheesy dialogue, pretentious acting, and a "freak of the week" mindset for Peter to gain every new power created is why I became an avid watcher of the first half of the season to prioritizing it under "I Love New York."

What turned me off is that show has quickly become stale and cliche. We have the comic-book one liners, the annoying minor, the archetypal quest of knowledge and power...come on. I understand sharing similarities with the comic book is the point of the show, but we've seen this all before.

Character wise: I don't like Niki/Jessica. People share her level of super strength on PCP. I agree that her death would be great for Micha's character development.

Acting wise: Mohinder. BORING.

Sun, Sep 30, 2007 at 09:35 PM EST

definitely Mohinder is the weakest link. and i'm indian, so i'm not being racist ;)

Rosie Sun, Sep 30, 2007 at 09:33 PM EST

I love Molly and Ando! But I have to say... OMG, you are going to hate me for this... HIRO. I can't stand the kid. He is SO ANNOYING and overrated. I love all the heroes (well, those new kids are way overacting) but him. Ando, I love to death and loved his reaction take. Hiro is an idiot who couldn't get the nerve to kill Sylar. Loser. While I think Nikki/Jessica's storyline is stupid, I think she's a good actress. And her kid's the cutest, and DL is cool. Bennet's the best for me--he's so well-acted, and I love his heart, and Peter and Sylar are great and well-acted characters too. Parkman rocks! Well, that's my piece. Sorry 'bout Hiro! Love the Kensei/Barney from How I Met Your Mother mash-up! hee.

jojo Sun, Sep 30, 2007 at 09:32 PM EST

the guy that plays mohinder almost ruins this show for me

AlmostEveryone Sun, Sep 30, 2007 at 07:04 PM EST

Its bad acting across the board: Peter, Nathan, Claire, Mohinder, Ando, Hiro are all bad actors for me. They look amateurs compared to the cast of Lost.

Warda Sun, Sep 30, 2007 at 03:11 PM EST

Hate to pick on the kid, but I vote Molly as most annoying. I don't think it's necessarily that she's a bad actor, but that the wise-beyond-their years kid role tends to be inherently grating (Wesley Crusher, anyone?). The kid playing Micah pulls it off slightly better.

Joey Sun, Sep 30, 2007 at 01:50 PM EST

The acting ranges from unimpressive to sucky all across this "ensemble". Mihinder is by far the most grating (what exactly does he bring to this role?), but it's saying something when your best actor is Hiro. I mean, I love the guy, but he's more "adorable" and a "great actor".

Ryan Sun, Sep 30, 2007 at 12:32 PM EST

I'd say Mohinder is my least favorite character. I roll my eyes whenever his plotline comes in. I really like Ando and Nikki/Jessica. I don't really have an opinion on Molly, but (Weiss from Alias) has never been all that interesting to me either. I can't even think of his name.

Yep I agree with nikki/jessica a no-talent put on tv for who knows what reason. Plus I'd put in a vote for Mohinder, does he have an emotion?

And a vote for that horrible little girl, kill her off already.

Another vote for Nikki/Jessica. She doesn't have a power, she has a multiple personality disorder.

Most definitely Nikki/Jessica!! What exactly is her friggin power anyway. Does she have super strength that only her evil self can tap into? Or are her split personalities part of it? Either way I've never liked her on the show.

The little girl comes in a close second,she's one step above the child actors on day-time soap operas. Actually, I'll giver a some credit and say two steps, cause those kids suck. Sorry kids, again $$ = fair game.

you totally missed the big one..nikki/jessica character...my god, the most annoying character ive ever seen on tv

I vote for Molly.Too precocious. they should've cast someone more childlike. I agree Mo can be annoying sometimes- esp the voice overs, but he's an essential part of the story. Ando should go. Love Hiro!

Lost and Battlestar Galactica totally own Heroes.
