The initial commercials highlighted the "we are family...don't mess with us" theme and it discussed the family owned business. Many people thought about the stereotypical Sopranos and Italian family references.
The media took it and ran with it, I think for publicity's sake, and The View even asked the ladies about it. |
What if some same statements were made by people with Fargo accents? I think a lot of it has to do with location and regional speech and dialect. People in North Dakota care about their families and likely behave in similar ways, but it just isn't as good tv to fight over tractors, heads of cattle, or failing your 4-H project. There are controlling parents and large families everywhere, the bling and the accents make for good tv.
I promise if I marry a rich oil man or a guy who owns a fleet of commercial fishing vessels I'll totally be on the "Real Housewives, Arctic Circle" and shoot animals while wearing something designer.
