What We Think

Continuum manages to keep the woke levels relatively contained compared to most modern TV. While there are progressive elements, the show’s narrative ambition and room for genuine debate mean it’s far from a woke-offender.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Continuum largely focuses on its sci-fi premise and character development over overt identity politics. The lead is a competent female cop, but her gender isn't forced to substitute for actual growth. Identity themes are present but rarely overpower the plot or realism. Forced representation and overpowered, flawless characters are mostly avoided.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

Traditional values like family, responsibility, and morality are present as driving forces. There is some subversion, masculinity and authority figures are occasionally portrayed negatively, and progressive themes surface, but the show doesn’t go out of its way to mock or erase foundational culture.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

While Continuum does have some modern ideological assumptions, it generally presents a spectrum of political and moral viewpoints. The ‘good guys’ and ‘bad guys’ debate ideas rather than just swapping labels, so dissenting voices are allowed to exist, even among main characters.
