The Burning Girls2023

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

While not the wokest offering from recent years, 'The Burning Girls' definitely sprinkles in its share of modern ideological flavoring. It’s not a total narrative casualty, but it prefers themes and characterizations that lean toward today’s cultural orthodoxies at the expense of broader pluralism.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

The show features a reasonably balanced approach but does introduce diverse characters in prominent roles. While identity factors are sometimes foregrounded, it doesn’t entirely override plot or character development. There are some moments where social issues are clearly signposted, but not so aggressively as to collapse the narrative.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

Some themes around religion and family are questioned, with the Church of England and religious authority figures depicted with a critical eye. However, it explores spiritual questions without outright mockery, and some traditional elements remain respected. Still, the balance often tilts toward modern sensibilities.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints, especially those tied to faith and tradition, are often cast in a suspicious or problematic light. Most of the main characters share skepticism toward tradition, and there’s little genuine voice given to dissenters. Ideological diversity is limited, though not entirely absent.
