Prioritize:
It is a bite-sized documentary essay and nothing more, I know, I know. However, casting the excellent Nicolas Cage as the vulgarly poetic host is a priceless gimmick! ()
Nick Cage on the lively history of dicks, bitches, shit and good old damn. Professional interpretations by linguists alternate with comedians, all rude and some homosexual. Each word is interesting/entertaining to varying degrees, so weak episodes alternate with great ones. ()
