What We Think

Alice represents old-school TV with minimal “woke” intrusion by today’s standards. Its themes and character arcs reflect traditional working-class and family values, with only mild subversion for comedic effect. Basically, this one’s safe from the modern Hollywood checklist.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Alice focuses on character-driven humor and down-to-earth storytelling typical of 1970s sitcoms. Casting and plotlines rarely prioritize identity politics over believable, relatable struggles. The show centers on a diverse group of waitresses, but their personalities, not token traits, drive the narrative.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

While Alice features a single mom protagonist, it generally upholds family and working-class values. It playfully subverts some traditional gender roles, but not excessively. Masculinity, religion, and tradition are mostly depicted as normal parts of daily life, with a sitcom's gentle humor.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The series presents a range of personalities and perspectives, with debates and friendly disagreements. Traditional views and everyday Americana are given their due, and no worldview is excessively mocked or villainized. Ideological uniformity is not a focus.
