Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While "Suspect Behavior" does include a fairly diverse cast, it doesn't appear that narrative is sacrificed for ideology. Character motivations and skills are rooted in the genre’s usual focus on competence, with identity factors rarely overshadowing the role or realism within the story.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The show largely respects established cultural foundations, focusing on teamwork and traditional heroism. Masculinity, family, and morality are portrayed in line with standard procedural dramas. There is little evidence of attempting to subvert gender roles in a forced or overt way.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews are present mainly through criminal profiles and internal debates among characters. Traditional perspectives are not villainized or mocked, and the show allows for plurality in its character interactions and cases.
