Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

The show centers on a diverse group of mothers, emphasizing female identity and modern family issues. While it occasionally explores deeper personalities, it often highlights issues of gender and motherhood at the expense of traditional character-based storytelling.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional family roles are regularly questioned or subverted, and there's a notable focus on progressive parenting styles. Fathers and masculine traits are largely sidelined or lampooned, with the narrative leaning into the idea that outdated values are obstacles to enlightenment.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Most characters embrace similar values regarding modern parenting, gender roles, and social issues. Alternative viewpoints (like classic familial structures) are either glossed over or depicted as problematic, resulting in a very tight ideological echo chamber.
