What We Think

Man from Atlantis is about as far from modern wokeness as you can get. It’s straightforward, focuses on adventure, and lets traditional heroism shine without modern ideological baggage.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Man from Atlantis is a classic '70s adventure series with storytelling that emphasizes plot, character skill, and good old-fashioned heroism. Casting choices and character arcs focus on fitting roles rather than checking identity boxes. The few attempts at introducing social themes feel dated in a non-woke, harmless way.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The series generally upholds traditional notions of morality, authority, and gender roles. Masculinity is portrayed positively, and there's little in the way of undermining faith, family, or classic American values. Subversion of cultural norms is virtually absent.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There's little evidence of ideological groupthink. Alternative perspectives, if shown at all, tend toward classic good vs. evil, not political messaging. The show doesn’t appear to ridicule traditional views or shoehorn modern ideologies into the plot.
