I was very surprised. Tremendous American accent.

I thought it was outrageous that Mindhunter had a Canadian actor playing the role of an American serial killer, and the dude hadnā€™t even murdered one single person! Just no authenticity at all there.

I donā€™t mind her being 40-something but she looks damn near 60 in those previews and Iā€™m not having it

Just eat your krab rangoon and be quick about it

Even worse when some Brooklyn doofus tries to play a redneck. I know damn well Billy Bob Thornton was available!

See this one for some reason didnā€™t bother me as much. Maybe because Iā€™d seen Rock Star? I didnā€™t feel tricked

The two worst hobbits were the Americans of course

She is Tom Cruiseā€™s love interest in Top Gun 2. Iā€™m sure sheā€™ll be up to your standard.

I think itā€™s that bright white lighting behind her. It has to be. I canā€™t explain it otherwise. She looks normal in photos.

Also it looks like Martha from The Americans plays a bad person if thatā€™s the same actor?

Well given the premise of Snowpiercer, I expect they made her look a lot worse. 50 is the new 80 on that train.

That is Alison Wright. Good eye!!!

Cā€™mon dude. You donā€™t have to do it every time.

You know what youā€™re doing.

It never bothers me when foreigners play Americans (unless their accents are just awful), I just thought it was funny no one mentioned The Wire yet, given how popular The Wire is on forums.

Itā€™s fun when a series is shot in Canada and you catch Canadian actors hired to fulfill the Canadian content quota slipping in an ā€œaboot.ā€

To be clear, Iā€™m not complaining about it. I couldnā€™t care less. Just wondering out loud why itā€™s so common.

Just started watching the Survivor finale. lololol Probst broadcasting from his garage and all the contestants at home. :popcorn:
