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

Sordid Lives: The Series scores high on the woke scale, centering identity, subverting traditional values, and offering little sincere take on alternative worldviews. If you're looking for non-woke storytelling, you'll find little relief here.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Identity and sexuality are central to most plotlines, and character backgrounds are often highlighted over skill or traditional development. The show leans into diversity casting and frequently prioritizes these elements, sometimes at the expense of nuanced storytelling or relatable arcs for all viewers.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional family, religion, and Southern culture are routinely lampooned or depicted as outdated, in our view. Masculinity is often played for laughs and the show seeks to subvert norms and values that were long considered foundational to American culture, without much balance or nuance.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional or dissenting views are typically exaggerated for comedic effect, often turning them into caricatures or foils for the main cast. Genuine debate or pluralism is largely absent, and modern progressive attitudes reign unchallenged throughout the show.
