LKH Lashouts

Born and raised in NC, so yeah, I totally agree with the fact that accents and drawls vary from state to state, and even city to country. Heck, they even vary in families. Some can be very thick, and others, not so much. But, generally as a rule, Hollywood and even writers get it wrong. I read a book, Inescapable by Amy Bartol, that had a character from Asheville, NC. This poor guy had a drawl/accent you could have cut with a chainsaw. Nope. Asheville is a rather large city. Very doubtful he would have had the drawl she gave him. Anyway, my point is that we don't all sound like that, so if they aren't going to research it a bit, they shouldn't try it.
