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

Runaway isn't the wokest thing on air, but it definitely checks plenty of modern ideological boxes. While the story still gets some breathing room, the focus on identity and resistance to tradition is unmistakable. Viewers looking for a more non-woke approach may find it a bit too on-the-nose.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

The show places significant focus on characters' identities and modern social issues. While it does not entirely sacrifice story, certain characters and plotlines feel crafted to check boxes rather than organically develop. The balance between drama and activism could feel a bit forced to some viewers.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

Traditional family roles and authority structures are often challenged or depicted as sources of conflict, with more progressive approaches emphasized. This could be seen as undermining cultural norms in favor of modern ideals.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Dissenting viewpoints, especially those reflecting traditional values, are seldom given sympathetic treatment. Most characters reflect a narrow progressive worldview, with little internal debate or genuine pluralism depicted.
