What We Think

All the Queen’s Men wears its wokeness on its sleeve. The narrative, culture, and worldview boxes are all thoroughly checked. If you’re looking for non-woke entertainment, this is not the place to find it.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

All the Queen’s Men centers heavily on themes of empowerment and identity, with diverse, hyper-competent characters whose personal drama often takes a backseat to showcasing their status. This emphasis on identity over organic character development feels like a classic case of ideology nudging narrative integrity aside.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional ideas around masculinity and family are either flipped upside down or barely appear at all. The show portrays non-traditional power dynamics, frequently casting traditional norms as outdated or problematic. Religion and family values are largely sidelined or shown as irrelevant.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives are pretty much out the window. Characters who don’t march to the show’s modern beat are either over-the-top villains or get almost no screen time. There’s no sincere friction or diversity of worldview, everyone is highly aligned.
