Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

This is a nature documentary focusing on marine life. There’s minimal narrative to be compromised for ideology, and the animals aren’t cast to check any identity boxes. The program simply highlights the beauty and diversity of the reef ecosystem.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show presents Australian marine biology without critiquing or subverting any traditional values, religion, or family. There’s no discernible effort to undermine cultural bedrocks, as it primarily educates and entertains through stunning visuals and factual narration.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

As is standard for BBC nature content, the focus is on science and environmental awareness. While it encourages respect for nature (which some might consider a modern value), alternative worldviews or traditional beliefs aren't mocked or villainized.
