History of Swear Words (TV Miniseries)

"[Its tone] really works for the subject matter (...) So the main problem with the series isn’t the presentation, but with how quickly it breezes through its material" 

"Nicolas Cage hosts an entertaining course on the coarsest vulgarities, explained by comedians and language experts (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" 

"You’d have to be a fucking dick not to have a damn good time with Nicolas Cage and 'History Of Swear Words'" 

"It's slight and rarely as funny as it feels like it ought to be. But if your curiosity stems from the seeming oddness of the 'Leaving Las Vegas' star serving as emcee for an overview of obscenities, that oddness is delivered in satisfying quantities" 

"[It] packs a lot of information into each 20 minute segment." 

"The novelty of Nic Cage helps to elevate a thin concept to something intermittently entertaining, but the material here is more a collection of skits than a proper miniseries (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)" 

"[It] boasts some funny moments yet not quite enough for it to seem worthwhile (...) [The] premise lacks the basic heft required to anchor a miniseries (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
