    After that Netflix show, Charlie Hunnam’s fluctuating accent became the monster. Easily worse than killing two people.

      Happens a lot with UK actors that live in America long term. Millie Bobby Brown is a good example. Not the end of the world though. 😅😅

    Charlie was wonderful in the show, but RM took too much creative license…more than is expected for a RM show. .And for me, that made the show unwatchable to the end.

      Yes, I completely agree and I’m surprised more people aren’t talking about it. He took the sexualization to a really disrespectful, insane, and factually inaccurate level. It felt like Ryan Murphy just wanted to play out some sick, twisted fantasies of his, and it’s really gross. I wish he would stop making shows and it makes me wonder who his target audience really is.

    Honestly, he’s so good I had no idea it was Charlie.

    He’s also the inspiration for the misfits song Skulls.
