What We Think

Mystery Science Theater 3000 (2017) is refreshingly non-woke. It prioritizes comedy and movie riffs over any sort of identity-driven agenda. Any casting diversity feels incidental rather than forced, resulting in a light, playful, and largely apolitical experience.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Mystery Science Theater 3000 mainly focuses on riffing bad movies rather than pushing any kind of current ideological narrative. Characters and humor remain pretty consistent with the original format, and identity factors are not a major focus. Any nods to diversity feel organic and secondary to the show's core comedic mission.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show doesn't take a revisionist or disparaging stance on religion, family, or tradition. Jokes are mostly about the movies themselves and pop culture. Occasional jabs at outdated concepts are played for laughs, not lectures. The overall tone is light and nonjudgmental.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

While the new cast is more diverse, alternative worldviews are not pushed aside or mocked. The show keeps its focus on movie banter rather than ideological debates. There's no heavy-handed messaging, just some updated sensibilities in the humor.
