Yep. Terrible.

Not even Raynor's hilarious fetishes could save this one...

And I want to take brillo to my eardrums to scrub away the memory of those godawful accents.

You know, i thought it would be unwatchable from the trailer. Thankfully, it seems they put the worst offenders in the trailer and it wasn't SO bad. I guess as a native NYer, I might be used to not-so-great NY accents.

I kinda liked the two-parter. To me it was "Daleks do 'Guys and Dolls'". I believe that many of the American accents were actually being done by Americans....but I'll have to pop over to IMDb to confirm that.

While it's not an amazing piece of televison, like 'Blink', it was pleasant enough and had a sort of charm to it. I will admit, however, that the Dalek-hybrid was probably the least interesting part of the show.

If those accents were being done by Americans, then they need to have their Equity cards taken away...

And, yeah, the hybridized Dalek Sec was as dull as the proverbial ditchwater - mostly because of the characterization. I guess they were worried that if they went a more histrionic route, there would be inevitable comparisons to Davros.

I know for sure that the guy who was the leader of Hooverville is really American and the guy that ended up a pig-man is also American. I will have to check for the stats on the guy who ended up the hybrid and the Broadway chick. I thought the younger guy from the South sounded pretty good but I'm not sure if he's American or not. Apparently they've already sent all the Brits who can do good American accents over here to do television. 8-)

Yep. Both of them.
