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

Bodem is the definition of 'woke TV.' Narrative and culture are bent toward ideological goals, with little space for pluralism or nuanced tradition. Anyone hoping for grounded storytelling may want to look elsewhere.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Bodem places significant emphasis on identity and topical issues over cohesive storytelling. Several characters seem written more for representation than organic narrative development, and certain plotlines sacrifice depth for messaging. It feels as if boxes are ticked rather than nuanced stories being told.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional familial and cultural structures are frequently depicted as outdated or even harmful, with more modern ideologies taking center stage. Masculinity is often lampooned, and faith barely gets a fair shot. It’s clear which side is meant to be relatable or 'right.'

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Any dissenting worldview is painted with a pretty oversized brush, opposition is rarely more than narrow-minded or villainous. The show revels in presenting a singular, progressive perspective with little room for genuine ideological variety or honest debates.
