▲* [[Corpsing]]: Almost broke character when Spock was interrogating Kirk and Scotty; the final scene in the film shows his expression twitching just slightly enough to be missed.
** Also applies to several scenes in ''[[Heroes (TV series)|Heroes]]'' where Sylar's expression can change just enough to indicate near-corpsing.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Plays [[The Spock|one of the best]], as well as being one himself.

* [[Mean Character, Nice Actor]]: Is quite laid back and sweet in [[Real Life]], but once he gets into character, prepare to be terrified.
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: As Sylar's popularity increased, the writers wrote in more thinly veiled [[Fan Service]] moments into his scenes. There is a reason he and Milo Ventimiglia, who plays Peter, have the most [[Shirtless Scene|shirtless scenes]] in the show.

* [[Promoted Fanboy]]: An avowed drama geek from the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama, he was extremely pleased to be cast as Louis in a production of ''[[Angels in America]]'' as he was a fan of the material.
** Played with in that it wasn't until he was cast as the reboot Spock that he became a fan of Star Trek.
* [[Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness]]: Tends to speak in an articulate manner, although tends to lapse into [[Buffy-Speak]] or [[Sophisticated As Hell]] in more casual settings.
▲* [[Straight Gay]]: [http://nymag.com/movies/features/zachary-quinto-2011-10/ Came out] with an offhand comment in a recent interview and prefers to not discuss his personal life.
