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

The Franchise scores high on the woke meter, with heavy-handed identity focus and little respect for longstanding cultural norms. While it delivers clever satire, its lack of ideological diversity and tendency to sideline tradition give it a distinct air of modern Hollywood groupthink.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

The show appears to go out of its way to highlight diversity among its cast and production team, sometimes at the expense of organic character development or authentic storytelling. Some characters' identities seem more central than their roles within the plot, giving off a sense that boxes are being ticked rather than stories being told.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

There’s a noticeable tendency to poke fun at traditional industry norms, particularly regarding masculinity and creative authority. Family, religion, and established morality are mostly sidelined, depicted as either irrelevant or out of step with the 'modern' film set vibe.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The series lampoons more traditional viewpoints and seems to present contemporary progressive values as the default among its cast of characters. There’s little room given for dissenting or pluralistic perspectives, making the ideological landscape pretty one-sided.
