Trivia
- Noah and Claire are the characters with the most appearances, followed by Hiro and Peter. Jack Coleman (Noah) and Hayden Panettiere (Claire) are the cast members with the most visual appearances. Sendhil Ramamurthy (Mohinder) has more credited appearances than any other character, due to his narration in some of the episodes in which he does not appear on-screen.
- Ashley Crow is the most frequently appearing guest star, and her character, Sandra Bennet, is, outside the main characters, the character with the most appearances.
- Dana Davis (Monica) has appeared in fewer episodes than any other main cast member.
- If counting Future Claire's appearance in Five Years Gone, Claire and Hiro were the only characters to appear in every episode of Season 1. Among actors, only Hayden Panettiere (Claire) appeared in every episode of season 1; Hiro was played by Garrett Masuda in Company Man.
- No character made visual appearances in every episode of Season 2. Sendhil Ramamurthy (Mohinder) was however credited in every Season 2 episode, but in Four Months Ago... he only provided the narration, and wasn't seen on-screen.
