Actually, the local commercials with Cajun accents don't bother me. Clarence Cochon da Easter Pig, at Acme Four Corner (Fo Cawnah) Liquidate used to make me giggle.

I love J P Thibodeaux's: On vas soigner ton char, comme le char a nous autres!

Dennis Quaid's "cher" bugged the hell out of me. I attribute John Folse's accent to his German Cajun combo heritage, but wtf do I know? Justin Wilson's accent wasn't real, but his cooking was pretty authentic.

In the movie Passion Fish, I was really impressed by David Strathairn's very subtle, almost non-accent. I thought he sounded like he could've been local.

Movies should forget about trying to do Cajun accents.
