Not mainstream but the guy who owns the bar in TG4's soap Ros Na Run has to be seen to be believed.He has only one expression. always looks like his underpants are too tight.It a hilarious show for the bad acting.I suppose if your an actor who can speak Irish you guaranteed a gig on this dreadful soap.

Bounty Hunter

Josh Radnor aka Ted Mosby in How I met your mother (v good show but god i hate Ted)
Wentworth Miller (Michael Scofield) - Prison Break

So many possible candidates for this award,I could easily list 50-60 .Easily.

Dominic Purcell : Prison Break
Kathleen Quinlan: Prison Break
Erica Durance: Smallville (The whole season 8 cast are diabolical)

Eliza Dushku - Dollhouse

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Eliza Dushku - Dollhouse
Dominic Purcell - Prison Break
Jennifer Carpenter - Dexter

If I could pick more than 3 I'd also add everyone on Heroes (with the exception of Jack Coleman and Zachary Quinty), but they're so bad I'm not even gonna waste my votes).

Gonna throw a wild card here, but....third voted goes to Blake Lively - Gossip Girl.

Wentworth Miller - Prison Break (as the story regressed his wooden performances became painfully obvious).
Evangeline Lilly - Lost (she's improved, but still woeful).
Lena Headey - TSCC (her trilogy of episodes were absolute torture).
