All I know is every time I see Naomi Nagata, I groan... her storyline is not as good as the others.

Actually they sound like South African accents.

I'm South African. We don't sound like that.

Quite a lot of SAs I know do that's why I made the comment.

They sound like a similar accent to Jamaicans to me.

Yeah they sound like retarded Jamaicans what are you gonna do? There’s no reason you have another sure why they have to talk like that and everybody else from every other planet like Mars or the inhabitants of OPA talk like normal human beings. I guess he needed something to differentiate the people from the belt or maybe they all originally came from Jamaica and New Orleans.

I love the fact that they have different accents. Its just a shame that isn't replicated across the board. With Bobby clearly from New Zealand, except she's actually from Mars. And thats fine, if other Martians on the show managed to pull of a decent New Zealand sounding accent. Mars was colonised by Kiwis. I'm cool with that :D
