I enjoyed season one but it pretty much seems like they've gone right over the edge. I enjoyed it when it was based more in reality than now, not to mention the setups for all the spin-offs.

I really like the series Ozark and eagerly await the final season. That one got a little weird when they brought on Wendy's brother as a character. Fortunately he was dispatched by the cartel before it went too far.

Ozark is an excellent show.

After watching the first couple episodes of Yellowstone. I noticed it is getting kinda mushy and has more drama. I will admit they are kinda over doing it on the "F" word which is saying alot coming from me..

From what I am seeing .. The first few seasons will probably be the best. As with most good shows... they will end up ruining it..

Nothing really tops The HBO Series Deadwood for language. The contrast between the eloquence of Seth Bullock and the F'bombing Al Swearingen along with referring to "simple folk" as "Hoople Heads" was very entertaining. I really liked that series.

You are entitled to your own opinions, but I choose not to use foul language, and do not cuss. I used to in my earlier youth because a lot of my friends did, but I soon realized that I did not need it in my life. I cherish being a christian and try follow the best I can. But, I do not judge anyone else, and I have a lot of friends and family that throw around the F bomb way too much, but that is their choice and it does not bother me in the least. For anyone to say that is fake, are totally wrong, but again, that is their prerogative to think that way. I can honestly say I had never heard my dad ever use any foul language in my whole life, and I try to use him as my role model.

I'm a big fan of the Longmire books, but never got around to watching the show when it was on A&E. Now it's on Netflix, so I'd have to subscribe to them to see it. It would be interesting to see how they compare - kind of like the Bosch detective TV series; I read all the books before I ever saw the show.

It all fine and dandy when things are going along smooth. No swear words. Nothing wrong with people acting decent and respectful. I also agree, when out in public or around strangers to watch your P and Q so to speak. It's basically a respect thing. Has nothing to do with( blank) in my opinion. It's just common respect. Now on the other hand, take one of these righteous stand up decent Moral humans and throw them into turmoil and adversity and trauma and lets see what happens. I've been married almost 40 years and never hear my wife use the F bomb, but you piss her off enough and look out. It is what it is. I've been around people that are the very best humans, I thought and I've seen first hand what they were like when they lost their mind. Scary.

I WISH I COULD SAY THAT.

I do not swear in mixed company, my grandfather taught me that.
I sometimes swear on the telephone, mostly a hell or D*MN.
I unfortunately do swear, I have found driving my vehicles.
The Detroit Drivers (I am actually talking about a lot of drivers in Michigan,
who are both male and female, young and old, who can't drive worth a Chit,
and blow red lights, kill people crossing the streets, drive 100+ mph on the
freeways and 60+ on posted 25 mph roads).

So my profane language is there OFTEN when I see men and women do really stupid stuff.

Tom V.

Turned off by TV shows with profanity. Most is supposed to keep people awake who would normally be sleeping during the show.

I have the first 3 seasons of Yellowstone on DVD and am waiting for the next episode impatiently. I described it to some friend as Sons of Anarchy on horses, well not exactly but about the same action.
