Whelp, we started watching last night. At least some of the cultural aspects in terms of how low income rural people live and think can be found right across the country, and even in parts of Canada, so not exclusive to the southern US (full disclosure: I grew up in Arkansas). We've even got cats tear-assing around the roads in jacked-up pickup trucks festooned with confederate flags here, and for that matter plenty o' gun nuts shooting up traffic signs on lonely country roads (though gun ownership isn't nearly so prevalent), and baptist right-to-life bible-punchers galore. The music is quite an interesting aspect, I'd never heard, or heard of these particular acts. Not sure if it reflects the living culture any more except in a nostalgic, hipster-hillbilly kind of way. Anyway I enjoyed it thus far and looking forward to watching the rest. “Sweden admits meatballs are Turkish” |
