Sins of the South

I would really like to enjoy this show but I just can't get past the narrator's fake Southern accent. Just detracts from the show. I watch just about every true crime series available and no matter what state the crimes occurred, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas, etc, the narrator speaks normally and clearly. I feel like l'm at a proper Southern tea party and the hostess is "putting on airs. I've tried for the past few weeks to watch an entire episode but just can't. (Why do I need to have an exact number of characters to make a comment that can be submitted? I can say this all in fewer than 600 words.

Please make that narrator stop talking! I like the show but she makes me want to scream. Literally no one talks like that in the south. I would feel bad for her but she is so annoying and stupid sounding. She obviously watched Steel Magnolias way too many times. Why do shows with stories from the south have to have that kind of narration? Just be real and not so blatantly fake. The show is good but please please please get a new narrator. By the end of the show I'm so annoyed I usually don't even remember the episode. Anyway, keep up the great shows you put out. I always look forward to new shows and episodes.

Being from the south, I was looking forward to watching Sins of the South. Unfortunately, I had to turn the channel about 15 minutes into the show. That narrator's fake southern accent is one of the worst I've heard in a while. It's ridiculous! There are many different southern accents and they're all special. Hearing them is like music to my ears. I'm from NC & within our state, there are different southern accents. I can distinguish the different regional accents and I understand that a non native southerner may not be able to do that. However, of all the different regional accents, this fake southern narrator isn't capable of speaking any of them properly. Just hire a southern narrator or find a better trained voice actor.

I will not be watching the show, even though I love Dick Wolf's shows. I cannot handle listening to that phony, southern accent. I can't take it. I don't know why with all the wonderful voice actors out there they could not come up with a real southern accent that would be enticing instead of irritating as all get out. I am a dedicated fan of every Dick Wolf show, and I was looking forward to this one as well, but I will not be watching it if they continue to use that narrator. Honestly, I don't know what they are thinking by having this person involved in this show. If they change the narrator, I will continue to watch. Otherwise, it's adios for me.

I'm a true crime junkie. Absolutely love these kinds of shows and I was so looking forward to this one as a Georgia native. My whole family was. But that narrator. Lord help. The overdone, clearly fake accent is offensive and the reason I won't be watching this show again. Why would the producers/Wolf Entertainment think it was a good idea to get someone who isn't a true southerner to narrate? There's so many great southerner actors out there. Heck, if y'all need someone who actually speaks with a southern accent, give me a call. I've been told I read well and have a great voice for voice work.
