What We Think

"Stay Tuned" is a solidly non-woke comedy relic. Its targets are pop culture and TV, not social structures or identity. With its light-hearted tone and lack of modern culture war themes, it’s close to woke-free viewing.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

"Stay Tuned" keeps its story focused on character growth, satire, and slapstick, with no obvious emphasis on identity politics. The cast and characters fit traditional comedic archetypes rather than representing demographic checklists. There's no sign of forced representation or flawless diverse leads: just John Ritter's everyman.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film upholds the nuclear family, lampoons TV obsession, and refrains from undermining religion, masculinity, or morality. Gender roles are presented in a conventional 90s manner, with no subversion for ideological purposes. Family unity is central to the story.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no attempt to villainize or stereotype traditional viewpoints. The satire is aimed at media excess rather than conservative or dissenting values. No modern ideological lectures, and multiple perspectives, however goofy, are fairly depicted for humor.
