What We Think

"Betrayal" is far more concerned with classic television drama and messy relationships than with pushing any "woke" agenda. If you’re looking for a non-woke, traditional soap, this is as mild as it gets these days.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

"Betrayal" is a soapy legal drama centered on an affair and its entangled consequences. The focus is on personal flaws and dramatic tension, not shoehorning in identity politics or checking boxes. Character backgrounds and motivations are classic melodrama rather than an exercise in representation.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

While the series explores infidelity and moral ambiguity, it doesn’t aggressively attack religion, family, or traditional gender roles. These themes are present mostly as plot devices, not ideological targets, and there is little to indicate a broader agenda to undermine cultural norms.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The show’s main conflict comes from personal failings and relationship drama, not from demonizing traditional viewpoints. There's no overwhelming sense that dissenting characters are strawmen or that every worldview is filtered through a modern lens.
