“Grotesquerie” doubles down on the playbook of recent woke television, emphasizing ideology over narrative nuance and offering little room for traditional perspectives. If you’re searching for non-woke entertainment, this show is about as subtle as a brick through a window.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Based on Ryan Murphy’s track record, “Grotesquerie” appears to foreground identity topics, often casting diverse characters in ways that feel more like checklist exercises than organic storytelling. Personality and depth often take a backseat to thematic boxes being ticked, undermining narrative immersion for many non-woke viewers.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The show, like many of Murphy’s works, seems to reinterpret family, religion, and masculinity through a distinctly modern, critical lens. Traditional values get largely sidelined or given a horror twist, positioning them as problematic or outdated, reflecting a departure from classic depictions.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

“Grotesquerie” rarely offers meaningful space for genuinely traditional or dissenting viewpoints; instead, such perspectives are often associated with antagonists or caricatured. The storytelling reinforces one set of contemporary ideological assumptions without much internal debate or diversity of thought.
