In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

"AJ and the Queen" is a tour-de-force in modern TV's woke direction, prioritizing identity over narrative, gleefully poking at tradition, and presenting a world with little tolerance for other perspectives. Progressive checklist? Check, check, check.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

In our interpretation, "AJ and the Queen" centers identity and LGBTQ+ themes, often letting activism take priority over organic character development or plot. Key roles seem tailored to promote certain messages rather than arising naturally from the story, and a focus on representation noticeably outweighs narrative cohesion.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional structures like family and masculinity are continuously subverted, often in service of highlighting progressive ideals. Classic values and religious or moral underpinnings are either minimized or used as punchlines, making the show's approach feel like a rewriting of traditional norms.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

It appears that alternative or dissenting viewpoints are typically caricatured, marginalized, or absent altogether. The series mainly surrounds itself with characters embracing a singular worldview, leaving little room for genuine debate or diverse perspectives.
