This is clearly Trivia, not a Trope-unless its used in-universe. So there should be a separation of these two instances.
I cut "Charmed was Julian McMahon's first role that required him to use an American accent, and as such his native New South Wales accent breaks through a few times in the early Cole episodes. It tends to happen on the last word or two of his lines." due to factual error. McMahon was on Profiler from 1996 to 2000. It was not until after that show ended in 2000 that he joined the cast of Charmed. On Profiler, he was also playing an American, FBI agent John Grant.

I have a hard time buying most of these. "Listen carefully to the third word of the second sentence he says 90 minutes into the movie. His accent TOTALLY SLIPS!" It's like how people use the term "line readings" to criticize something... they're trying to manufacture negativity through overspecificity rather than letting it generate on its own.
Flying a plane is no different from riding a bicycle; it's just a lot harder to put baseball cards in the spokes.
Does anyone know which episode of Frasier has Martin Crane slipping into a Mancunian accent during a dream sequence? I've seen the one where he mocks Jane Leeves' character, but it's very short!
Umm, did Karl Urban in Star Trek really slip back into New Zealander? To me, not only did he get the accent right, but his mannerisms of Bones, too.

If you don't agree you can always delete. It's not like the entry has much detail.
See you in the discussion pages.

- Rachael Taylor, best known as the Australian chick in Transformers, can be heard attempting a Southern accent in the Live-Action Adaptation of Marvel's Man-Thing... and failing
It would appear that there is great confusion about this trope and Accent Slip-Up, since this trope seems to have an entire section of examples dedicated to what to me appears belongs on Accent Slip-Up.
