Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

This adaptation stays faithful to Austen’s original story, emphasizing character, wit, and classic romance. Characters are defined more by personality than by any modern checklist of identity traits. Representation is true to the setting and era, with no evidence of forced identity politics.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show presents traditional values, highlighting family, duty, marriage, and social norms. Masculinity, femininity, and class are portrayed in line with the period, and there is no attempt to undermine or reframe core cultural foundations for a modern agenda.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

While the show reflects the attitudes of Regency England, it does not villainize alternative perspectives beyond the context of the time. There’s no overt attempt to push ideological uniformity by today’s standards, dialogue and conflicts feel natural to the story’s setting.
