I LOVE the valley/surfer/stoner accent, male or female. I love being around people I know I am smarter than.

Well, in that case, who cares which accent the woman has?

LEAST sexy accents: Russian, southern Californian, northern California. This could very well be true for my own accent, which reflects my parents' upbringing in rural and small town Southern California, as well as my own in the suburbs east of Los Angeles. For example, I pronounce "marry," "merry," and "Mary" exactly the same, as I do "cot" and "caught." When I say "any," it rhymes with "mini" or "Ginny." I usually pronounce the suffix "anti-" as "ant eye," and when I say "Moscow," it rhymes with "Bosco."

I would have said:
Southern US or Australian.
When BIL was teaching in Russia, he learned to speak pretty well. SIL said other ladies always commented on his adorable American accent.

I really liked that show he was on! The one where he was stuck in the 70’s. Was SO disappointed they took it off air.

LOL. I’ve never heard of him before I searched “Famous Irish Actors”. But “Life on Mars” is a cop show right? I think that’s the show he’s on anyways. Nice pic though. Rugged Irish look about him on the far right. Does he have a thick brogue accent?

“Life on mars” is the name of the show.he’s a doll! At first I thought he hid his accent now I can’t remember. I am pretty aure he covered his accent like House..hugh L. (However it’s spelled)

“...hes a doll!”
O.K. Now he needs to get on a new show. I can't believe I missed it. They definitely need to have him use his full accent this time round though. Maybe you and I should write a series for him. The Quiet Man meets CSI.

LoL aside from enjoying him :) I loved that series because it gave me an idea of what it was like for adults in the 70’s. They ended the series before they planned to, and it made news because of that. They had to rush the ending..grrrrrr
