Pinky and the Brain1995

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

Pinky and the Brain is about as non-woke as they come. Its priorities are laughs, gags, and clever writing, not pushing any social agenda. A refreshing throwback to when cartoons felt more interested in entertaining everyone than lecturing anyone.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The show focuses on classic comedic storytelling, revolving around the antics and dynamic between two lab mice without any obvious emphasis on contemporary identity politics, forced diversity, or ideological messaging. Its characters are developed for humor and personality, not to tick any boxes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Pinky and the Brain doesn't attack or undermine traditional values. Family, religion, or traditional masculinity aren’t core themes, nor are they mocked or subverted. The show is more about slapstick, parody, and satire than any cultural re-engineering.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews aren’t really present or villainized, the series is more interested in farce and zany antics than any ideological agenda. If anything, it lampoons authority and ambition in a lighthearted, broadly appealing way.
