Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

"The Cockfields" centers on relatable family and relationship dynamics without obvious focus on identity politics. Casting and character development lean into believable personalities over checkboxes, and the narrative isn't disrupted by forced messaging. This is a breath of fresh air in comparison to more overtly ideological programming.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show embraces a British family holiday setting with traditional dynamics intact, dads are dads, mums are mums, and familial squabbles are universally recognizable. There’s no heavy-handed subversion of gender roles or overt rewriting of cultural traditions.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s a diversity of viewpoints represented mainly through personality quirks and generational differences, not through overt ideological battles. No particular worldview is villainized or mocked, and the humor comes from relatable family annoyances, not from mocking tradition.
