Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Hinterland is praised for its moody, character-driven storytelling. The show doesn’t dwell on identity politics; characters are developed through their actions and relationships rather than contemporary ideological checklists. It feels like merit led the casting and writing.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional themes like family, morality, and justice are handled with seriousness and respect. The show doesn't spend its time undermining masculinity or traditional values, it explores the gritty realities of rural communities honestly, without lecturing viewers or rewriting social norms.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives, social, moral, and political, are treated with nuance, not ridicule. Characters have flaws and genuinely disagree. The series doesn't push a singular modern worldview onto its audience, letting the drama speak for itself.
