Planet Earth III2023

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

Planet Earth III remains largely non-woke, prioritizing nature over narrative agendas. Any hints of modern ideological framing come purely from its environmental advocacy but lack the identity politics that dominate elsewhere. A few raised eyebrows for one-sided climate messaging, but the show is more about lions than lectures.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Planet Earth III focuses primarily on breathtaking visuals of wildlife and nature, with minimal attention given to casting or character representation (for obvious reasons, these stars have fur, scales, or wings). Any narrative is built around environmental storytelling, not identity.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While the show’s core is the natural world, occasional forays into advocacy, such as climate change commentary, are present. However, there’s virtually no overt undermining of tradition, family, gender, or religion, because penguins don't preach ideology. Points deducted mostly for modern environmental messaging.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Most alternative perspectives on environmental issues are not explored. The show adopts the now-standard conservationist worldview throughout. Dissenting voices on environmental policy, for example, are absent. Still, it's a nature documentary, not a policy debate panel.
