Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Karen Sisco focuses on a strong, capable protagonist, but her skills and development fit naturally within the story. There is no sense that identity factors override merit or realism. The show is driven by character and plot, not topical ideological messaging.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values like family and professionalism are treated with respect. Gender roles are not aggressively subverted; the lead is competent but not superhuman, and masculine traits are present without ridicule.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The show is relatively pluralistic for its time, with a variety of perspectives. Dissenting characters are not cartoonishly villainized, and the moral world is more 'gray' than ideologically saturated.
