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

Lucy, the Daughter of the Devil is more irreverent than 'woke', using satire and absurdity instead of identity politics. Religion and family are parodied, but not overtly subverted for modern dogmas. Not free from critique, but it’s closer to old-school cartoon anarchy than Hollywood’s preferred box-ticking.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The show's humor and absurdity come first, with little evidence that narrative is sacrificed for modern identity ideology. Characters are quirky, but not defined by race, gender, or sexuality to push a message. Most casting and plotlines seem motivated by comedy rather than virtue signaling.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

As a parody involving the Devil, religion is mocked and spun for laughs, which could be seen as undermining traditional values. However, its satire is more anarchic than narrowly ideological. Family structures are lampooned, but not specifically targeted with modern culture-war themes.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

The show does play with irreverence, but it doesn't hammer home contemporary woke talking points. There isn’t a heavy-handed ideological message or clear villainization of tradition, the aim is broad comedy, making fun of everyone equally rather than pushing a singular worldview.
