Maybe they'll each have their own season of bad accents--Nate's was last season, and Sophie's is this season.
A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
No, Sophie's was last season too. If she never does any flavor of southern again, my eardrums can die happy.

Honestly, I think I read an interview somewhere (but I can't remember where, so I can't cite it) that specifically said Sophie wouldn't be doing as many accents this season. They had some sort of official reason - they were focusing on something different about her character, or some such - but I just remember being happy about fewer accents.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Apparently the closed captioning said she was doing a New York accent.

That's what it sounded like she was attempting to me. But man, was that bad. Not just bad - their fake accents are so bad and so theatrical that it makes you question how the mark doesn't immediately twig to it. So it goes beyond distracting to actually impacting the plausibility of the storyline. They need to just stop.

What I don't get is whether the accents are supposed to be that bad, and the marks are just that stupid, or are we supposed to not notice how bad they are?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
What year is Season 3 supposed to be taking place?

Weiner said he was going to skip past the Kennedy assassination, and if he keeps to the previous pattern it'd be around 1964.
Those hats looks similar to the kind you see on Sinatra's Capitol albums.
