So I recently started watching "FROM" series which is kindoff intresting but what I obsvered is the word "f***" is used more times than any other word. I'm still in season 2 but this word is what I can hear for every 10 words maybe 😂😂. Did u guys also observed?
I’ve watched the whole show and it never stood out. I think you might have fixated on it. It seems like a pretty reasonable word to use when living in a world of vicious monsters that shred people.

it’s just lazy writing, though. the writers want to make things seem tense and their go to tools is people immediately screaming f*** at each other.
the issue isn’t whether it’s explainable, the issue is good storytelling needs more finesse than what you can explain by “the trauma did it”
“trauma” could justify Boyd turning into a crossdressing prostitute giving blowies for the last can of peaches. would that be okay? simply on the basis it’s explainable?

What? There’s like 5,000 things going on in the show to cause tension, they’re net relying on swear words.
And swearing isn’t ‘explainable’, it’s a very normal and common human behaviour.

it’s not explainable yet you took the time to explain it? lol
profanity is a child’s way of expression hostility and tension and if you haven’t seen a show that instead relied on nuance and undertones, i feel legitimately bad for you
have a great day

I’ve seen plenty of shows that don’t use profanities because of network restrictions, and it generally just comes across a bit odd because it’s not realistic. But now I see it’s necessary for pearl clutchers like you.

In an early episode of "The Wire", there is a scene where 2 detectives revisit an old crime scene. The scene is about 5 minutes long and, other than one "Bang", the only dialogue is some variation of "F***".

I think they use the word a realistic number of times given the fucked up situation the characters are in.

One thing that kind of ruined it for me is that almost every scene starts the same way. Pay attention to any epsiode in season 2 and you'll know what I'm talking about. I'm still engaged and watch the show though ...

You'll see the same thing, with some variations, in every season. It's actually quite funny once you notice.

They couldn't call the show F*** so they went with From.

Lmao that would definitely be more accurate title. I'm watching season 2 also and yeah the f-bombs are getting ridiculous at this point. Like I get it, people are trapped in nightmare town but maybe expand the vocabulary a little bit? My dogs probably learned more curse words from this show than they should have.
