Jimmy Smits made this almost unwatchable.

Anyone else really annoyed at his performance? If his mouth didn't move when he spoke I would swear he's a mannequin. The original series had some amazing acting performances, so far this new series just isn't that good....yet anyways. I'll keep watching just because I'm curious to see if I can make it through more episodes of Smits' terrible acting.

Yeah. Everything about his character (the acting, the dialogue, the storyline) is super bad for the actual 24 standard.

Jimmy Smits is one of the greatest living actor in the business. He be represent'n us latinos, so you watch yo mouth before you diss him.

He's fantastic, and doing a great job. His character in Sons of Anarchy was well executed, definitely check out that show if you haven't.

He was amazing in shows like Dexter and Sons of Anarchy but he totally sucks the energy out of the scenes he's in on this show.

Jimmy Smits has unfortunately become the Latino Steven Seagal - even down to the excessive usage of orange fake tan.
