Profanity

  • The English subtitles are frequently very inconsistent with the spoken Spanish. For example: in season 1, episodes 1 - 3, no stronger profanity than an occasional "damn" or "shit." In season 1, episode 4, the subtitle author adds 50+ "fucks" so every character (regardless of the plot or situation) cusses constantly. In season 1, episodes 5 - 6, subtitles revert to "damn", "crap" or "gosh."
  • Season 2: Again, although the English subtitles are inconsistent with the spoken Spanish, there is pervasive coarse TV-MA language with frequent "fucks" "motherfuckers" and "cunts" and all other assorted profanity throughout each episode.
