In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

London Irish is refreshingly non-woke. No one is spared from its mockery, but it’s not pushing any ideology. Expect raunchy fun and classic sitcom chaos, not social lectures.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

London Irish puts humor and character antics front and center, focusing on the misadventures of a group of Irish twenty-somethings in London. Identity is present but not used to drive an ideological point. Characters are allowed to be flawed, often spectacularly so, prioritizing laughs and cringeworthy moments over any forced messaging.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show pokes fun at everyone, including the Irish, but doesn’t go out of its way to undermine traditional values. Family, religion, and masculinity are treated with irreverence, but it’s more about comedy than activism. Some might wince at the stereotypes, but nothing is disproportionately maligned.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no preachy groupthink. The humor is irreverent and sometimes crude, but not in service of a modern ideological agenda. Characters express a range of views, mostly just bad decisions driven by lager and bad luck rather than woke consensus.
