Hello!

I'm a great becker fan and also a great fan of Shawnee Smith's role Linda.

Can somebody explain me the way Linda keeps talking in the series? Is her accent/pronounciation typical for some part of the states?

Regards,
Hans

shawnee smith was born in nc. so that may explain why linda has an accent but the strange thing is ive been a fan of hers for 20 years and never noticed any kind of accent until i started watching becker on a fairly regular basis
