What We Think

Criminal Code is surprisingly non-woke for a 2023 release. It keeps its ideological leanings muted, focuses on story and tension, and avoids major pitfalls of forced representation or cultural revisionism.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Criminal Code largely focuses on plot-driven storytelling and procedural elements, letting characters' actions, rather than identities, drive the story. There is little evidence of forced representation or narrative detours for ideology over story.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show treats traditional themes, law, duty, family, and justice, with respect, if occasionally modernized. There is little evidence that religion, masculinity, or cultural norms are mocked or subverted beyond typical genre conventions.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While modern ideas are present, the show avoids one-note ideological messaging. Diverse perspectives exist, and not all traditional or dissenting views are vilified or caricatured, allowing some real-world social complexity.
