History of Swear Words

 

8/10

The History of Swear Words on Netflix, looks at the history of... well, the title is self-explanatory. It's hosted by Nicholas Cage and features interviews with various comedians and historians or other experts. 

This is fairly amusing. Information is disseminated in a fun way. Though, it's kind of weird that this show looks at the different definitions swear words have had over the years, but never mentions that cops were used to be called dicks. I would've think that was an obvious speaking point.   

You get a good gang of personalities on this. I'm surprised that Nicolas Cage chose this as his first show ever (I believe). Then again, it makes perfect sense for him, this show being off-kilter. Nicolas Cage hosting exactly what you'd expect. He seems to be having fun as he bring his trademark energy.

Overall, I recommend this. It's an entertaining watch.
