What We Think

Little Lunch is about as non-woke as modern kids’ TV gets. Diversity is treated matter-of-factly, and ideology takes a back seat to humor and relatable growing-up moments. You can let the kids watch this one without bracing for a lecture.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Little Lunch keeps its focus on childhood friendships, misadventures, and the real dynamics of Australian school life. Representation is present but feels organic rather than forced, and characters are defined by quirks and personalities instead of identity checkboxes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show is extremely light in its treatment of larger cultural ideas, family, school authority, and even play are handled in a respectful, non-cynical way. There’s little if any subversion of traditional roles or cultural institutions here.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

While the show steers clear of heavy-handed ideology, it’s also refreshingly pluralistic. Different personalities and backgrounds are shown getting along or clashing without moral grandstanding or cartoonish villains.
