The profanity is milder in the earlier years (seasons 1-8; 1989 - 2002). The profanity in the latter years (seasons 9-13; 2003 - 13) can be quite harsh.
"Shit" is used in 'Taken at the flood' (2006).
'Lord' 'God' "For God's sake" and 'Bloody' aren't used much but they are the most frequently used words overall.

The later episodes tend to be darker and/or more violent.
"The Tragedy at Marsdon Manor" "The Adventure of the Egyptian Tomb" and "Dead man's mirror" can be seen as three of the spookier 1990's episodes.
