Duckface!
The TV series is itself average but worth watching for historical information. The most distracting aspect of the whole thing is Viola Davis's acting. She is constantly doing an exaggerated "duckface". It becomes so distracting that you only pay attention to that. I wish it was a comedy so I could laugh at it but it really gets on your nerve. Some photos of this ridiculous performance are in this link:
