Sins of the South

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.

The show itself is a good true crime effort. The narrator in a fake Southern accents makes it seem as it the show is mocking the cases it covers. I almost turned it off immediately but decided to watch in spite of the narrator. Worst casting decision. Change the narrator and this may be a credible offering. I'm not sure why they didn't get a narrator who is actually from the Sourh or just anyone else. Suprising and disappointing casting choice from a production firm who has many successful previous and long running projects. Not up to par. So many other similiar crime shows and this does not reach the bar.

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.

The narrator with the fake Southern accent is AWFUL. She is the reason we won't continue to watch. I thought I was just being judgmental about her, then I started looking at all of the other reviews that have the same opinion.

The show itself is promising. We like shows that only use the actual folks involved in each case, versus a cast of characters who should choose a different line of work.

With Dick Wolf & company behind this new series, I would think they could've at least found a narrator with a real Southern accent, or no accent at all! I'd be happy with the Snapped narrator narrating all of the shows we watch!

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.
