What We Think

Fraggle Rock is about as non-woke as it gets. At its core, it's silly puppets teaching kids to get along, no progressive preaching shoehorned in. If only more children’s shows took this light, imaginative route today!

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Fraggle Rock keeps its focus on playful storytelling and character-driven lessons rather than checking modern identity boxes. Characters are unique by personality and charm rather than shoehorned diversity for the sake of it. There's little evidence of narrative being warped for ideology, especially by 1980s standards.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The series sometimes lightly questions authority, tradition, or social norms through metaphor, but it does so in the context of universal moral lessons and friendship, not as a takedown of family, religion, or masculinity. Conventional values are usually reinforced rather than undermined.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives aren’t mocked or villainized, and the characters explore their world with curiosity rather than dogma. There’s no heavy-handed ideological uniformity, just the usual kids’ TV impulse for good-hearted teamwork.
