Shows on streaming services and premium channels like TedLasso and Succession have made heavy use of curse words in dialogue, with one word reigning as the favorite:
Fans who call themselves “rom-communists” say the characters are destined to be together, pointing to clues in the Apple TV+ show and interviews by the cast.
He thinks it’s because of the hard “k” at the end; something he feels has “a beautiful, powerful sound to it that makes it f—ing irresistible, frankly.”In “The Diplomat,” it’s meant to be surprising and also a character trait when the otherwise reserved U.K. Foreign Secretary Austin Dennison, played by David Gyasi, drops a litany of F-bombs after he witnesses a shocking event.
“That Dennison could be the way he is in his formal dress and strive for people and then, behind closed doors, that might slip out in his language, I think that that’s quite a nice marriage,” Gyasi said.It’s also a cultural issue. Like Dennison on “The Diplomat,” the titular character Ted Lasso, played by Jason Sudeikis, is an outsider looking to be thought of as a leader.
All of these shows are also airing during a sea change in the way Americans speak, according to lexicographer Jesse Sheidlower. Now working on the fourth edition of his book “,” which chronicles the changing definitions and usage of the word, he said he’s seen for decades how “sexual and scatological terms have become increasingly less problematic” while others, like those used to describe racial or ethnic minorities, have become more so.
