What We Think

Evil lands in the moderately woke camp, with an emphasis on modern identity and worldview themes. It doesn’t completely abandon narrative or respectful engagement with faith, but it wears its progressive leanings with minimal subtlety.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

Evil gives significant attention to issues of race, gender, and faith, often incorporating modern debates into the story. While plot and character do come first, the show's diverse casting at times feels slightly engineered. Some viewers might feel that themes are occasionally foregrounded over organic storytelling.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

The show tends to challenge traditional religious authority and often questions both faith and family structures. Masculinity, especially in the form of its priest character, is sometimes critiqued or undermined. Still, religious belief is not wholly dismissed and gets serious engagement.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints exist but often as foils or with a tongue-in-cheek presentation. The secular, skeptical worldview receives the lion’s share of serious attention, with traditional stances generally depicted as either obstacles or sources of conflict.
