Another show that takes place in Pittsburgh, without the Pittsburghese


I grew up near Pittsburgh. Southwestern Pennsylvania has a language all its own, but do they teach the actors how to speak it..no..not on any show that takes place there, there is nothing for anybody to know that. I have not lived there for 40 years, and I still talk that way.

That's nice.

I'm always taken out of the show whenever they mention it. What, this takes place in Pittsburgh? Ha. Weakest attention to setting ever.

They are supposed to be from Pittsburgh and they surely don't sound like it since he sounds like he is from New York. Pittsburghers say thing like youin's and have very distinct accent. I think it is the worse show ever not even funny either.
