What We Think

“Spanish Shame” is refreshingly non-woke, sticking to classic comedy about social awkwardness. It doesn’t sacrifice storytelling for the sake of representation or ideology, and traditional values are left largely untouched. A rare, non-preachy outing from modern TV.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

“Spanish Shame” (Vergüenza) focuses on awkward social situations and personal embarrassment rather than ideology. Characters' personalities and flaws drive the story instead of identity factors. Diversity is present, but it isn’t pushed to the forefront in a way that overshadows narrative logic.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show largely centers around marriage, family, and social life with an irreverent and comedic tone. Traditional relationships are not undermined, and the humor rests more on universal awkwardness than on critiquing core cultural values.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s a focus on broad, relatable cringe and human silliness, not ideological beatdowns. Alternative worldviews are not the villain, everyone seems fair game for awkward moments, keeping things balanced without soapboxing.
