4-5 uses of 'Bitch', several uses of mild swears like 'shit' and 'damn', but overall, swearing isn't prominent and rare.
Seasons 1 - 3: Extremely mild compared to most other programs on Netflix. Season 4: The language becomes harsher at the end of season 4, with multiple f-words. Season 5: A considerable change in tone, with the full TV-MA assortment of profanity and constant stream of f-words. One character has a particularly foul mouth. (The writer's choice of language adds nothing to the plot or development of characters.)
"Damn," "hell," "bastard." Nothing too extreme.
There is the use of strong language and profanity throughout the series.
