Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

"Acquitted" appears to focus on character-driven drama, with its central plot rooted in personal history and small-town dynamics rather than identity politics. Characters are developed based on their backgrounds and interactions, not token representation. There are no obvious indications that narrative is compromised for ideological purposes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional themes, family, personal redemption, small-town values, are at the heart of "Acquitted." The show doesn’t seem to subvert masculinity or morality, nor rewrite cultural or religious traditions to fit modern agendas. Instead, it leans into Norway’s rural and societal norms.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives are presented with nuance. Individuals with varied motivations and moral outlooks are shown as complex, not as one-dimensional villains or heroes based on their beliefs. There’s little evidence of ideological conformity or villainization via caricature.
