Post Grading the American Accents
http://www.boston.com/ae/tv/blog/2008/1 ... on_is.html

Interesting article about all the non-American actors playing Americans and how good they are at adopting the accent. Hugh Laurie of House got an A+ :D

Anna Torv of Fringe meanwhile, got a D.

She invents a fake Southern accent that is endearing and campily funny in its fakeness.


Yeah - I love her accent.

Anna Torv talks awful, but compared to her general acting, her accent is the smallest problem.
