Sins of the South

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.

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.

It's hard to actually rate the episode because the narrator's accent is excruciating, horribly, awfully BAD, bless her heart. One cannot seriously pay attention to the story.

My Granny is old, Deep South born and bred "in high cotton" and neither she nor any of her contemporaries, family, friends, strangers, absolutely no one in The South sounds that syrupy slow and stupid. Stop it - recast or voiceover... If nothing else, listen to the real folks interviewed, especially the women, and y'all will hear the difference and how insulting that narrator really is.

But please, y'all, whatever makes your ears hurt less, stop the stereotypical drawl...just STOP.

Please get rid of this narrator. I will gladly volunteer for the job because ANYTHING has to be better than listening to something so fake and annoying. I can't even watch the second episode knowing that I'd have to hear that voice again. If someone can advise me if and when the narrator changes, then I'll watch again. Don't you show a preview to an audience and get feedback? I can't believe a panel would agree with this being a good voice over. I doubt even .1% of the women from the south can even tolerate listening to this. The voice takes away from this being a crime show and makes it feel like a dull headache.

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.
