Michael Rapaport on Justified comes to mind, though I still really enjoyed his performance.

Sarah Paulson's "British" accent on American Horror Story: Roanoke. Though it sounds like it was terrible on purpose. They missed their chance at revealing she was really from Manitoba or something.

Charlize Theron's 'British' accent on Arrested Development. WTF was that?!
I'd always thought that she possessed a knack for accents, because her native language is Afrikaans yet she speaks English with a flawless American accent in her everyday life. So, I figured, she could master the British, as well. Alas...

I immediately could tell the actress playing Jessica Jones' (American) friend was from Australia, so her.

The accents on True Blood were pretty awful. Almost comical.

Andrew Garfield's American accent in his episode of Doctor Who. The most atrocious attempt at an American accent I've ever heard.

It's been a little while since I've seen it, but Ewan McGregor in Fargo season 3 sounded Irish half of the time. His American accents are usually questionable, so it was the one thing I was hesitant about.

ibbi, how has it been 'a little while' since you saw Ewan McGregor in Fargo? Didn't Season 3 just premiere yesterday?

Katie McGrath who plays Lena Luthor on Supergirl does an awful American accent. She doesn't know how to hide her strong Irish accent.

A lot of the accents when Sons of Anarchy visited Northern Ireland were some shameful shit.
However, the King of terrible TV accents has to be Oz's Desmond Mobay and his admittedly fake, but not deliberately terrible (one assumes) Jamaican.

Any time Nicole Kidman attempts an accent?
I'm obviously not very precious about this sort of thing, as she is my second favorite actress (after Rampling), but why do people keep casting her as an American? Just re-write the character and make her Australian if you want Kidman.

I love Nicole but her American accent has always been a problem.I could hear her Aussie accent coming through all the time in BLL and there were times it took me out of the scene.Incidentally, she does do a really good English accent. |

David Boreanaz's attempt at an Irish accent for Angel sounds even worse than the Lucky Charms Leprechaun.

Jessica Lange's German accent and German speaking attempts in American Horror Story: Freak Show still makes my skin crawl.
