Notably, the actors in Mare of Easttown accurately portrayed the unique Philadelphia accent that is rarely heard in mainstream media.
Marianne “Mare” Sheehan, a police detective in a Philadelphia suburb, is faced with a challenging investigation into the murder of a teenage mother while also juggling personal struggles. Known as a local hero due to her past success as the star of a high school basketball championship game 25 years ago, Mare’s reputation has been tainted by her inability to solve a year-long case involving another missing young girl. This has caused doubt and skepticism among members of the community regarding her detective skills. On top of these troubles, Mare is dealing with a divorce, the tragic loss of her son to suicide, and a custody battle for her grandson against his formerly heroin-addicted girlfriend.
