The cursing on "The Morning Show"

Does this bother anyone else? People curse. I get it. But seriously. Someone says "fuck" or "fucking" or "bullshit' on this show like every 3 minutes.

I don't see it as a character trait when multiple characters are cursing, and often. It's the writers who think "oh boy, we don't need to follow the FCC rules, we can have them curse!"

After awhile, FUCK and other words lose their meaning when you hear it being spoken in the show every other scene.

Reese's character even makes a joke at one point that she probably shouldn't say a bad word as she's giving an interview and it made me laugh because of how the whole show seems to have been written.

What's everyone else's thoughts on it? I enjoy the show but the (often) cursing bothers me.

Yeah, it's pretty unnecessary. People, or at least the people I'm around, don't say the word that much. Not sure why Hollywood loves it so much.

It is about the contrast between a "we-are-so-happy-and-love-each-other" TV show and REAL life.
I appreciate showing this contrast.

I don't care if anyone chooses to swear or not; but I did notice that the characters in this show do swear quite often. Eventually I got tired of it, and I just stopped watching it...
