Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Set in the mid-1980s, 'Crazy like a Fox' is a detective comedy that sticks to classic storytelling. Characters are written with personality and merit, rather than identity politics. Forced representation and flawless diverse leads are absent, as was standard for its era.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show embraces traditional family dynamics, with the father-son pairing central to the narrative. Masculinity and conventional morality are played straight, without subversion or mockery of classic values.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There is little to no evidence of ideological monoculture. Alternative worldviews aren’t villainized or absent; debates, quirks, and personalities arise naturally, not from modern political dogma.
