Always fun to judge authenticity of the scenery & accents of something set in Newfoundland. Our school band gave heck to Peter Straus (A Whale for the Killing) at Heathrow. A minor character in The Shipping News was a schoolmate. That Bones episode - no such trees or seaside mansion in Nfld!

Some of the accents in Below are perfect. Because they're native speakers. Others not so much. But the ones that aren't perfect aren't overly TRYING to be perfect ("Lord Tunderin!") like the usual. I think it's important to separate the accents and dialects. Accents are much harder to fake,
