What We Think

London Files occasionally wades into the shallow end of modern 'woke' trends, but largely remains a straightforward crime thriller. It checks some representation boxes but mostly keeps its ideological impulses in check, making it only mildly woke by modern standards.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

London Files, for the most part, centers its story on traditional thriller mechanics and character motivation. While some diversity boxes are inevitably checked, the narrative generally keeps its focus on plot and personal stakes rather than pushing forced representation or hyper-competency for diverse characters.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

While the series touches on modern social issues and features some critique of traditional authority figures, it doesn’t go out of its way to undermine religion, family, or masculinity. These elements are present, but not the main focus, resulting in only a mildly 'woke' impression.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

There's a perceptible tilt toward progressive perspectives, especially in how social issues or dissenting viewpoints are portrayed. However, the show sometimes allows characters to express and grapple with multiple sides, so it's not completely locked in a monoculture mindset.
