What We Think

'Irreverent' plays with some modern themes but mostly keeps things character-focused and doesn’t sacrifice storytelling for the sake of ideology. It’s far from peak Hollywood wokeness.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While 'Irreverent' features some diverse casting and lightly touches on a few topical issues, these elements rarely overshadow plot or character motivation. The show relies primarily on its fish-out-of-water premise and character-driven humor, rather than leaning into any heavy-handed identity narratives.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Traditional values like family, redemption, and personal responsibility are core drivers here. Although the main character is literally pretending to be a reverend, the show doesn't seem interested in tearing down religious or social institutions, instead using them for earnest if sometimes irreverent storytelling.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

There is some light ribbing of small-town attitudes, but alternative perspectives aren’t demonized or completely absent. The overall tone aims for quirky neutrality rather than signaling a singular ideological message.
