It's interesting that the producers asked Craig Horner, an Aussie, to adopt an American accent for the show -- given its Middle Ages setting. Do any of the other characters use a more setting-appropriate accent?

american and australian accents are both equally inappropriate for something set in the middle ages

@rpa1973: They pretty much all speak with American accents though very few, if any, are american.

@Marcus Garvey: I agree, but if he's already Australian ... why change? But, like he said, that's what they wanted.

@grimoneus: I know. I'm getting the feeling that's not going to happen. Hey: stay tuned ... I have Oscar from "The Office" coming up this week, too.

Wow, let me just make sure my DVR is NOT set to this one.
A+ on interviewing skills though, as always.

As a fan of the show, thanks for the information.

I loved the Goodkind series, but the show just doesn't do it for me. That young man does however, rrrowr. ;)

^Agreed, Dee. The books were great, the show not so much.

i love Legend of the Seeker and i love Craig Horner. He's a great actor, captures the innocence and masculinity of Richard Cypher and comes across as beautiful on the inside as he does on the outside. I am a huge fan of his. I hope to follow him and his successful career for years to come.
