I would prefer NO accent. Southerns, especially deep Southerns carry stereotypes about not being the brightest of the bunch. I'm not saying he's stupid or anything, just saying a uneducated viewer is already going to attach a certain stereotype to him.

I've spent my entire life in the south but have been to different countries/parts of the US, people with Southern Accents catch a certain prejudice.

Hm, most people?
I guess I'm not most people, because I don't judge people by an accent. Also, there's no such thing as 'no accent'. When a southerner listens to a northerner, they hear an accent. When I listen to him talk, he sounds very intellectual and that he knows what he's talking about. His accent is also not as strong as it could be, and he has a good reputation as a cop.

I feel like you're the one being the most judgmental one here more than other viewers so far.
