My wife and I sat to watch the first episode of this series and I was quite enjoying it. I enjoyed the dynamic between father and daughter even though I question whether one would be quite so accepting of a career criminal father. (Unless you were crimonally minded yourself). I accept that profanity is part of the linguistic scene even though I think that in every day use it shows a lack of linguistic skills and an ignorance of the breadth and depth of the words available to us. I think art should aim to broaden vocabulary and culture rather than diminish it. I seldom see how the use of profanity actually anhances a movie or show, but I accept it. However I do not understand how giving lines of profanity to a child actor does anything positive to the experience of the viewer or the child. So when a child came onto the screen with lines of profanity my wife and I shared a look and turned the show off. Sorry but it's not for me! You need to be more creative than that! If the child is supposed to be bright, intelligent and sassy, then let the use of language show you that!
