You weren't paying attention. He explained this in the first episode. He's grandfather was a white American, and taught him the language. Ah Sahm has a white blood coursing through him, but only him, his sister, and Wang Chao (the guy that sold him to the Hop Wei) know this.

Yeah I know that all right.. But how come he was able to speak English without accent..?

Take Anthony Joshua for example.. Man grew up in the UK, speak English with a British accent.. So by your own logic because he has Nigerian parents he should have a Nigerian accent simply because he has Nigerian blood in him?

My point is they spoke English way too eloquently.. These are the little things that matters when it comes to accuracy in movie making.

Under no circumstance should a Chinese who just arrive America speak English that well.. It a plot hole for me. He should have an accent at least.

Ah Sahm was exposed to the American accent at a very young age. We all know children are very good at picking up accents and languages. As a child he learnt English in an American accent. Therefore, logically, he should be able to speak English in an American accent, no?

There are drones of folks that have never stepped foot in the American soil all their lives, and yet have prestine American accent whenever they speak English. They have been able to polish their american accents through constant exposure to the accents via American media.

Thus, Ah Sahm leant to speak English in the accent of his American grandfather, cuz of his exposure to the language, and accent as a child.

No offence bt things don't always work like that. If the accent is not part of the focal point of the movie then it doesn't actually make any difference. Else, how did they choose to use English in a film like Chernobbyl instead of Russian? I understand that it would have seemed more authentic but that's not the point of the film.

lol They could have just ended it or cancel it and call this one a spin off, cuz it's no longer "13 reasons why". Probably school shooting and gun violence would be the theme of the new season.
It has also been renewed for a fourth season.

See them. The boys is a great TV show that takes a realistic but negative spin of the superhero trope

It a highly rated by everyone. You guys are the odd ones.

Best episode of The Handmaid's Tale for me. Didn't know June and John Wick were related.
Didn't even know S3 was airing till last week. S1 was great bit I just felt that S2 went nowhere. It felt painfully slow and I actually like slow paced shows. Has significant things happened in Season 3?

It's a great season, better than season 2. If you liked prior seasons you'll like this.

The professor is smart due to years of experience and learning and needs help with planning, while scofield is a naturally born genius who creates his own ideas.

Scofield would eat both of them for breakfast.
the professor is also a genius , it's not normal to rob a bank and still escape without been caught . Not just any bank . grin
