Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

DNA largely focuses on plot and suspense, with minimal instances of identity-driven casting or character construction. The show prioritizes thriller elements and personal struggles over overtly ideological themes, so narrative integrity is mostly maintained.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Family, justice, and morality are explored in a fairly nuanced fashion, and there’s no sense that tradition, gender, or religion are being sidelined or caricatured. Traditional relationships and parental bonds are depicted as central drivers of the plot.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s room for moral ambiguity and differing viewpoints. The series doesn’t serve as a platform for demonizing traditional perspectives, nor does it insist on a single, modern ideological stance for all characters.
