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

'Somebody' leans into modern identity themes and subverts tradition, offering minimal room for non-woke viewpoints. It's a slick production, but for those wary of overtly woke storytelling, expect a fairly heavy dose.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

The show features a diverse cast and explores LGBTQ+ themes, which some may view as taking narrative priority over deeper character development. Certain plot points occasionally feel driven by identity markers rather than organic personal growth. Still, the mystery/thriller elements offer some narrative tension.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

Traditional gender dynamics are challenged, with masculinity portrayed ambiguously and queer relationships central to the story. Family and conventional morality take a backseat to individual expression and desire, which could be seen as undermining cultural foundations for some viewers.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

The story largely presents progressive views without much internal debate or sincere representation of alternative perspectives. Dissenting views, if present, aren't given depth and are often set up as obstacles rather than meaningful positions.
