trotted out the Brooklyn accent, but he can't sustain it, doesn't do
it well and he usually drops it half way through...it doesn't work at all.

I do, having lived there most of my life
It's very Brooklyn/Bronx with a little Southern thrown in (thayng for
thing). Since Doggett was a NYC cop but was born in Atlanta, it's
okay that he tawks like that. He sounds like a lot of people I used
to know and still know. I always like ta youse the Barbra Streisand
example and huh song, "Evuh Evuh Green" but to me, Neil Diamond,
Harvey Keitel, Sylvester Stallone, Robert DeNiro, John Gotti, Jerry
Orbach and others all tawk a little like Dawgett.
Joe Pesci does the most exaggerated NY accent but he's from Jersey.

Brooklyn, more than Bronx. Brooklyn is all about the loose jaw,
whereas The Bronx is very nasal (think Calvin Klein.)

It sounds very natural to me, as well. I'm the first to complain when
someone is doing a "Dese, dem and dose" accent, and I think Robert
Patrick is doing a great job.

Everyone in Jersey does the NY accent, not having one of their own.

LOL, remember the ATXF NY/NJ wars? Just remember, the biggest thing
out of NJ is tomatoes that we need for our pizza in NY.

And we *could* grow them ourselves, we just *choose* not to. ;-P

I've said it before and I'll say it again: the difference
between the Bronx and Brookly is like the difference between
North Dakota and South Dakota...

Yeah, I noticed that too, in a big way. I was watching a
tape of "Salvage" with my friend last week, and after
Doggett said some piece of information, my friend shot back
"Thank you, Tony Danza!"
Meanwhile, Rick Schroeder on NYPD Blue, whose character has
always had a (perfectly appropriate) strong NY accent, is
suddenly losing his. I guess there's only so much
TV-NY-Accent energy to go around, and RP's bogarting it. He
should back off so Rick can stay in character.
My $.02,

*ahem*
Is this one of those truisms like "I don't have a Brooklyn accent"?

<LEER>
Like I've said before, the accent *will* sometimes slip out when I'm
tired, or when I'm speaking to someone who has the accent, or when I'm
racing along on my little legs trying to keep up with a GIANT
drummer...
But those are the *only* times, I swear. ;-P
