What We Think

"Have You Been Paying Attention?" is refreshingly low on the woke meter. It relies on sharp Australian humor and pop culture riffs, not identity politics or agenda-driven storytelling. If you’re tired of formulaic, overtly ideological TV, this show will feel like a breath of fresh air.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

As a light-hearted news quiz, the show centers on quick-witted banter rather than story arcs or identity-driven casting. The humor relies on pop culture and current events, not forced representation or overwrought moral lessons. Character traits and merit aren’t railroaded by ideology, making this one refreshingly non-preachy.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

This show’s comedic format lightly pokes fun at everything, but it doesn’t target traditional values, religion, or masculinity in any systematic or agenda-driven way. Any cultural commentary is equal opportunity, sparing most sacred cows and focusing more on harmless gags. Traditional norms aren’t treated as villainous or passé.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

While most panelists lean modern in their humor, the show doesn’t villainize dissenting or traditional perspectives. Plenty of space exists for cheeky jokes from all viewpoints, and the cast’s diverse banter means there’s at least a whiff of pluralism – if not extensive debate.
