What We Think

Primeval manages to keep its focus on entertaining sci-fi action rather than ideological box-ticking. For viewers tired of modern 'woke' messaging, this is about as close to a non-woke, old-school creature feature as TV gets.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Primeval largely focuses on plot and characters rather than identity politics. Casting choices appear driven by character fit rather than box-checking for diversity, and personalities are given room to develop. Forced representation or hyper-competent characters based on identity are not a notable concern.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional gender roles and morality aren’t blatantly subverted in Primeval. While there are strong female and male characters, the show doesn't mock masculinity, religion, or family. It’s adventure-focused and refrains from heavy-handed modern cultural revisionism.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

This series doesn’t appear to villainize traditional perspectives, nor does it enforce a rigid ideological outlook. Characters reflect a fairly standard range of views and don't conform to a singular, preached worldview. Traditional values aren't the butt of the joke.
