Don't Like the Profanity
There's no need for it.

agreed, amc and one life need to cut the salty language, watching these kids curse is laughable
whats good witcha!
It's awesome. Characters speaking like real people. People swear in real life....have never understood why they can't on television. Cheers for the internet!!
shareI have the mouth of a sailor anyways so this change hardly annoys me
(and quite frankly, there are FAR more offensive things on a soap opera than foul language. Think rape, scheming, domestic violence, abductions, blatant disregard for history, misogyny, racism)
When God made Tom Cruise, he was only joking.
I actually don't mind the profanity since I am guessing when a show is online there is less censorship. I am surprised that the show hasn't had nudity yet.
shareThe cursing is fine. Imagine how great the scene from the 80s between Erica Kane and the bear in the woods would have been if Susan Lucci had been allowed to curse. "I AM Erica *beep* Kane! And YOU are a filthy *beep* beast!"
sharePrecisely. Add in a hair flip, utter "Your *beep* can't take on my diva antics, you overweight hairy f-head!" and behold classic, unconventional Erica Kane, cursing and all!
When God made Tom Cruise, he was only joking.
"blatant disregard for history"...LOL. How about "going through adolescence in one year." Surely that must be a crime against nature. I remember how weird it was when first, Joey Martin was younger than me, excited about Santa Claus, and then voila, he was older than me, eloping with whatshername.
shareSORASing: soaps' excuse to go from crayons to marriage (or adultery) for storyline expediency, even once defying basic science
They really aged Joey more rapidly than other kids from the show, starting around 1984 when the guy should only have been 5, yet at Greg/Jenny's Valentine's Day wedding that year, it was as if Joey was almost done with elementary school!
When God made Tom Cruise, he was only joking.
hahaha!!! Your comment saying "I am Erica *Beep* Kane! bwahaha!! Exactly!
shareOnce the joy of the shows being back subsides, it will become obvious that the writers are using the vulgar language as a gimmick.

"Hot damn, that makes many of us gimmicks for cursing in regular day talk (oh my the horrors!)"
Where are you hearing all this cursing in "real life"?
-Used an ATM today with people patiently waiting their turn, no one was cursing.
-Went into a sub shop and order lunch to go; no cursing.
-Walked passed a couple chatting, neither of them were cursing.
-Got on the bus, sat down behind two young men talking about tonight's hockey playoffs; SHOCK for the whole bus ride not one curse word came out of either of their mouths.
So where is this every day regular talk of which you speak? A slum, a ghetto, trailer parks, where?
You make it seem like the average person is some sort of 24/7 swearing machine, and they're not. Just because YOU have a filthy mouth doesn't mean everyone else does.

"Allow me to grade you with an A in the "Take Remarks Out of Context" Dept."
"Even if I had a prim and proper mouth, sweetheart"
"My advice: Grow a thicker skin."
ROTFLMAO right cause criticism, albeit terse, equates to insulting...and defiantly labeling one "brainless" somehow falls outside that insult *snort*
You keep yourself sheltered from all life's demons. We sure don't want that delicate ego being sullied under minimal contact with the outside world, one consisting of, my my, foul language!
Well it's good to know I made you that emotional to resort into ad hominem territory. Now enjoy your day, sweetheart (oops! Will you now report me to IMDB TOS? I can't wait to sit in on Friday detention!)
See how easy it is to insult someone without uttering a single curse word, amazing isn't i
Don't call me sweetheart.
So long
bwahahaha!!!! @ Can't wait to sit in on Friday's detention" I'm using that one when I piss someone off on here! LOVE it!
shareI like it. Especially with the teens. Teens swear. It would be unrealistic to have them speaking proper all of the time. Also, adults who are pissed off swear. It's time for American television to join the 21st century and get out of the Puritan times. Not asking for vulgarity, just realism, and realistically, some people say *beep* British tv shows are so much better in that way.
And yes, it's sad that some are more offended by swearing than rape, misogyny, racism, and violence, and adultery. SMH.
Seriously??? Is that your complaint?? You got your shows back be happy instead of criticizing. This is a new era of Soap Opera watching, no network buzzers scrutinizing over scripts and making it look like a story book. They are shooting from a real life aspect and hey we curse in real life..get used to it. Appreciate that AMC and OLTL are back instead of nitpicking it.
shareWhat you said...a-friggen-men (or make that a-effing-men. And if people have a problem with that, feel free to block me!)
When God made Tom Cruise, he was only joking.
I liked it very much when Jesse said fúck in today's episode when Zach told Jesse that Kendall and the boys left him because they were being threatened by the Russian Mafia. :D
And Zach's "Holy shít" was awesome as well.
After 5 Years of Chuck, I have learned that at the end the nerd will ALWAYS get the girl. Chuck me.
I don't particularly care for profanity. But if you look at all the despicable things people do on soap operas swearing does not look so bad.
shareI watched the May 14th 2002 episode of All my Children on youtube and I did hear some minor language. I heard "You heartless son of a B**ch." When my sister and I were kids, we were never allowed to watch soap operas. I never got interested in them until I watched the October 27th 2011 episode of One Life to Live. I did recall seeing a brief moment in an episode of Days of Our Lives when I was a kid.
