    Perhaps his west tn-mid tn is accurate. East tn is something unique. La is somewhat accurate... albeit you pretty much have to have a fair understanding of French to do it justice. I'm by no means a linguistic professional but a native of southern tongue, both partial African and caucasian. Its difficult to do right. I'll give the gentleman credit. Given he is certainly not from the region he does it fair justice within reason. Nonetheless it's all entertainment:) 👍👍

    As a native Tennessean, I've never in my life heard a non-native nail the Tennessean accent so well. Bravo. EDIT: Y'all need to realize the South is full of different accents, TN as well. He nailed A singular western Tennessean accent. He likely based it off of Elvis, whose accent was unique, as he lived in a few different places in western TN during his childhood. My family is from the same parts of TN and so this man mimicked the accent some of my family has. I only bothered to edit this comment 2 years later because I'm tired of people contacting me angrily about a comment I made which should never have evoked such vile and filth to be spewed at me and others.

    That's the crappiest attempt I've heard in a long time. When he said "they're thinkin about it" he didn't even do an accent he just dropped the G off thinking. In East TN we talk faster and add syllables that aren't there. It's more like.... "Thay-ur thankina-bowdit"

    Its not about the ear. You can read up on this. Linguist pick apart stuff all the time. There are terms for things that describe accents like non-rhotic, which explains the lack of an R. Brits only pronounce the R if there is a vowel after it. Not at the end.

They need to watch Steve Allen, Jack Paar, and early Johnny, and not binge it either, maybe one per day. It would revolutionize late night shows again. Graham Norton is very close.

    He does this whole routine in his newest Netflix special. It's pretty darn good! I love how he associates actions or personalities with each accent. Here, Louisiana is off. It seems more Georgian because he's dropping his r's but not doing some of the other Southern Louisiana stuff, like th>d, ing>-in', and long o>aw. That last feature is always the thing that makes me think for a split second that I might be dealing with a New Yorker. Or instead you could go with the sound that Louisiana shares with East Texas, where you say, "I'm comin'. I'm OWN my way." And "We got to put some OLL in the car." Or the Cajun French accent, which is its own thing.

Blacks from East Knoxville sound distinct as it's "lazy" dropping word constant's. I have been told all my life "you don't have a accent." I moved to Texas, met a guy from Arkansas and 5 minutes later, he looks at me and says "you're from East Tennessee, probably near North Carolina." I was pretty amazed as my wife is from Asheville.

    Amazing! I have lived in the South 6 years and still can't differentiate among the different Southern accents. His Arkansas sounded like Bill Clinton. Lol.

    Let's see him do a New Orleans accent. Specifically, the Yat-ccent. It sounds like Brooklynese

    Connor Scott I'm from east Texas. They don't. It would have just been amusing for me. Case in point: Sissy Spacek, and anyone from the movie Bernie.

    New Orleans is like a weird mix of a NY accent and a southern accent. Atlanta is full of Fake West coast and Mid western non accents, because people from Atlanta dont actually want to be from Atlanta.

    carl shneebly How do you fake a west coast accent. That's literally the general American accent.

    DoggosarenotPuppers Well, the Midwestern accent is typically considered to be the General American accent. West coasters do have a accents. Think valley girls - just not as pronounced. As an east coaster, they definitely sound different to me.
