True Blood a disappointment..

The attempts at accents killed it for me. The star on the brother's chest suggests they live around Rayville/just East of Monroe. They also said they had to take someone to the hospital in Monroe. Half of the accents are just bad redneck accents and the coonass accent was bad as well, although closer in authenticity.

2008 and mother frickers still can't nail the accent

I wish HBO would have continued the series Deadwood.

That last season of Deadwood was pretty horrible

Minus the atrocious accents, especially the black girl, I thought the show was pretty good. I absolutely love the premise.

I could do without the psychic angle, though.

The black chick sucks, no doubt.

I don't get HBO, but watched it from my hotel a couple nights ago. It was decent, but just decent.

Anna Paquin annoys me for some reason. The premise is kinda cool, but nothing original. The gratuitous MILF nudity was appreciated though.



Also, what's up with Carnivale? I've been wanting to get into a relatively short-lived show, and always see that in Best Buy. Give me the jist on it, someone...

There were only 2, correct?

I always got the feeling it was sort of a post-apocalyptic kinda thing...not sure why.

I've come to the conclusion that Hollywood doesn't really care about getting accents right. They only care about an accent that goes along with their idea of what we should sound like.

That's my point. It's a self fulfilling deal. Hollywood perpetuates these ridiculous accents so the rest of the country believes that's what we sound like, and vice versa.
