What We Think

The Crazy Ones keeps things light, with humor and character quirks taking center stage over modern identity politics. It’s essentially a non-woke sitcom in both tone and substance.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The Crazy Ones is a workplace comedy that focuses more on antics and comedic chemistry than identity-driven narratives. Casting appears to be based primarily on fit and talent. Characters are allowed realistic flaws, and identity factors are not the story’s focus.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Traditional work and family dynamics get a comedic spin, but there’s no heavy-handed subversion of masculinity, family, or tradition. While gender roles are modernized, the show is far from preachy or revisionist in its worldview.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The show relies on relatable workplace and generational humor without enforcing a particular worldview. Traditional perspectives aren’t villainized; there’s genuine diversity of character attitudes, and comedy comes from interpersonal quirks, not ideology.
