True Detective (2014– )
2/10
season four uses on average between 20 and 50 f-words per episode

Even the principals use them once or twice per paragraph.

It's excessive.

It's redundant.

It's offensive.

It doesn't add emphasis or texture to the scene, it is blatantly offensive.

Add the fact that it comes from law enforcement officers at virtually 100% of all of their interactions with members of the public as well as fellow officers leads me to believe that Alaska must be a terrible place to live and a terrible place to visit.

Perhaps this franchise has devolved into a terrible place to work at and/or write for.

I've heard of actors having the ability to change their lines.

And if so many actors have decided on their own to pepper their dialog with expletives, they must never want to work with producers of this series ever again.

Really the constant swearing is far far too much.

Also there might be a better than average chance that a producer, on his/her own, has decided to spice up the dialog for their own twisted reasons.
