What We Think

Jon Benjamin Has a Van is about as non-woke as a modern comedy gets, riffing on weirdness and irreverence instead of pushing modern ideological messages. It’s more interested in making fun of everyone than in preaching to anyone.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Jon Benjamin Has a Van is a sketch/mockumentary comedy that relies on absurdism and satire, not on shoehorning identity-based characters or themes. Its casting and humor are merit-based and unconcerned with woke identity checklists.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show occasionally pokes fun at social conventions, but not in a targeted, ideological way. Religion, masculinity, and family aren’t central topics and, when referenced, are there for general satire rather than cultural revisionism.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no evidence of ideological monoculture. It seems to poke at everyone and everything with equal opportunity sarcasm. Dissenting or traditional views aren’t villainized or held up for collective scorn.
