Storia delle parolacce

I did not mind the political or feminist undertones of the series, quite enjoyed that it gives perspective and social aspect. Unfortunately as previous reviewers said - there was not much history - in a series named that way. Majority of guests were there just to give their opinions about the swear words much more than any useful information and if you did not know who they are/like them you wouldn't really care about their words. I think they would be much better off making it into yt videos than actual series. This way they could maybe mix up guests a bit or do it a weekly occurrence where people could vote who they would like to see in the next episode? As well as that viewers tend to have less expectations when it comes to yt videos and they can also comment so... yeah. Fast watch, but pretty whatever.

Nick Cage is the only worthwhile part of the show. Just fast forward when he isnt talking

For the most part I found this mildly entertaining and very funny. That being said there is absolutely no difference in opinion among any of the interviewees which made it bland.

If you like the ever eccentric Nick Cage and his unique style then you might enjoy this if you remember not to take it too seriously. It is quite light so if you are expecting a deeply detailed documentary you may be disappointed. Could it have been better? Probably, but it is giving me a good chuckle.

Six twenty one minute long little shows. All are hosted by Nicolas Cage. And each looks at the history of a certain naughty word.

This shows in each episode is, one third fun, one third interesting, and one third annoying.

Nicolas Cage pieces where he talks about the words and their usages are really good fun. He makes for a great host getting the tone right.

The bits that actually do the history of the word are interesting. Particularly in the sixth one where you get more of it than others, especially re a certain famous film quote.

The annoying part comes from the talking heads. A lot of the people in this who give opinions are captioned with their name and it says as well they are a comedian. Which is handy to know they are supposed to be, as none of them are very funny. At all. And whilst I don't want to use the word woke in a derogatory sense, some are so opinionated in a way like people who think they are right and everyone else is thus wrong and a bigot. Or a misogynist. And the third episode does venture a few opinions based on the word in question that go by a definition of it I really don't think is accurate at all.

Get through these parts though, because the rest of the episodes, for the bits I mentioned above, are worth it. Just for those.
