I've been watching Trai for years and he has only gotten better, but he is not a great actor. I actually find his bipolar portrayal over-the-top and his emotions are always off. He is certainly not the best actor on the show. He's just given something meatier than the others, but he's still an afterthought.
And who cares about Jamal or Hakeem? They're not good either.

Taraji carries that show on her back. It's a stereotypical role, but I think that's what it's meant to be. Taraji just came off a successful run as a detective on a crime drama and received a ton of acclaim for her portrayal in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. She is hardly stuck in stereotypical roles.
