This isn't so much a review as a statement.
Coming from MA, not too far from Haverhill, it is refreshing to see actors speaking in the true dialect of the region, and not trying to sound like Kennedy's! Too often shows set in MA have the actors go over the top assuming everyone sounds like one of the Kennedy brothers. They all came from Hyannnis, and while in MA, it is a different dialect entirely.
In this show, people talk like people I knew in MA. It is a subtle dialect, dropping the "r's" and stretching the "a's", but not so dramatically as the Hyannis Port folks do. Very much like the dialect in NYC differs from Long Island.
Great job so far. Look forward to more!
