The Chernobyl miniseries used American and British accents. Who cares. Accents have nothing to do with how actors convey emotion

    I would rather have Americans acting in their own accent that butchering someone else's. Even if they do an okay job, sometimes it can feel like they're concentrating so hard on maintaining the accent that their performance loses its depth and starts sounding like line rehearsal.
