The trailer to Netflix docu-series opens with a suited Nicholas Cage getting up from his leather seat and shouting over the course of an extended breath, “Fuuuuuuuuck!” It’s an appropriate beginning to an introduction on History of Swear Words. In the six-part series, historians, pop culture experts and comedians get behind the etymology and popular usage of cuss words from the practically chaste ‘damn’ to the word that also signifies a kitten.
History of Swear Words will drop on Tuesday, January 5.
