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.
