I don't think you have much time to watch TV, but if you ever see some 
TV show where there are a lot of "Russians", pay attention to the 
secondary  characters. The main "Russian" is always not a real Russian, 
but minor characters just might be. Take for example the 
latest  "Russians"  on "24". There was a whole bunch of them in an 
embassy (or a consulate). The consul himself was not real Russian, of 
course (was it the actor who played Denethor in LOTR? looked so much 
like him), but some of others were. But you won't hear a really "good"  
bad accent on TV, I suppose :-).
