What We Think

‘An Astrological Guide for Broken Hearts’ easily avoids the major pitfalls of modern wokeness. It’s more of a harmless, breezy rom-com than a battleground for ideological messaging. Hardly any lectures, just a bit of Italian fun and zodiac romancing.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The show focuses on romance and astrology, with casting and character dynamics feeling organic to its modern Italian setting. It doesn’t appear to shoehorn diverse characters or ideology at the expense of story or realism, most characters are quirky but grounded in the romantic comedy genre.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While the series highlights modern dating and occasionally pokes fun at tradition, it doesn’t actively attack or subvert traditional values, religion, or family. Masculinity isn’t undermined so much as gently teased, and the overall tone is upbeat and neutral toward cultural norms.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The main conflict revolves around love and personal growth, not ideological battles. Alternative viewpoints or worldviews aren’t mocked or villainized, if anything, the show is a light-hearted exploration of differing opinions in relationships and belief in fate or astrology.
