In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

"Hit & Miss" pushes progressive boundaries for its time with a focus on identity and nontraditional themes but avoids the most heavy-handed, overtly woke pitfalls seen in recent fare. Moderate to high on the woke meter for 2012, but less extreme by today's standards.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

"Hit & Miss" centers its narrative around a transgender contract killer, an idea that was quite ahead of its time in 2012. Some viewers may feel that identity-driven casting takes precedence over more traditional character development. However, the show does strive for complex characterization beyond identity.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

The series subverts traditional gender roles and spends notable time reframing family and parental themes through a nontraditional lens. It doesn't overtly attack classic values, but it consistently centers modern reinterpretations over traditional views.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints are not aggressively mocked, but the show makes clear its sympathies are with its progressive lead. Traditional perspectives are largely absent or placed in the background, with little genuine debate or pluralism.
