A Brief Shriek of Aural Anguish

I thought the "American" accents in Land of the Dead were bad? They're nothing on the horror of the "Southern American" accents in Minuet in Hell!

They've gotten most of the actual *sounds* right - assuming that all Texans sound like Foghorn Leghorn - but the pacing & pitch are completely off. In a veddy veddy British way.

*twitch*

Since there's so little difference between generic upperclass Brit and genteel southern - Peter Davison wouldn't have to work hard to sound like he came from Georgia, for example - maybe what's really bugging is the attempt to sound like a cowboy.

But I did have to give up on Land of the Dead. That was truely making me itch.

And yes - you must get more. I shall continue to pimp Storm Warning, Neverland, Zagreus, and Scherzo as a mini-season. And I just listened to the first "season" of the Sarah Jane Smiths with great enjoyment. They ended on a cliffhanger, drat them, so the new set will also need to be ordered at some point after I've paid for assorted plane tickets.
