deputy chief brenda lee johnson :D
sorry i just love kyra sedgwick!.!.!. she does the accent so well
but, to answer your question, i think it mostly has to do with where these shows take place!. obviously, if it takes place in any big city (which many do), they probably wont have anyone with an accent!. and then a lot of the shows which take place in suburbs usually are assumed to be located in the midwest, northeast, or southwest!. and then there's the suburbs in the south which within themselves don't have that many people with southern accents, etc!. it might also have to do with viewers and how they relate to the south!.
you do bring up a good point and i think it would be refreshing to see a serious drama which takes place in the south!. (of course some exist, but im thinking more popular and mainstream)!. a show like that could take the south away from its stereotypical impressionsWww@Enter-QA@Com
