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

Da Vinci’s Demons doesn’t completely escape modern reinterpretation, but compared to recent offerings, it largely stays non-woke. It leans more on adventure than on ideological messaging.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While the show occasionally inserts modern sensibilities into Renaissance Italy, it mostly focuses on adventure and the personal journey of Leonardo. Casting decisions and character arcs appear driven by story needs, not by a forced push for representation or making identity the centerpiece.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

The series plays fast and loose with history, but doesn’t consistently mock or undermine traditional institutions like family or faith. There are some revisionist moments and modern attitudes about religion, but not enough to dominate the story or signal overt ideological rewriting.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Some characters express skeptical or progressive views, but dissenting worldviews (religious, traditional, etc.) are present and given at least some dimension, villains aren’t mere caricatures, and there’s genuine internal conflict depicted between worldviews.
