What We Think

'The Good Ship Murder' sails along blissfully unfazed by modern wokeness, focusing on classic storytelling without any heavy-handed messaging or trendy box-ticking. It's a rare throwback, so those looking to escape ideological overload will find smooth sailing here.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

In our view, 'The Good Ship Murder' keeps things fairly traditional, sticking to murder mystery formulas and focusing on the story and characters rather than shoehorning in overt ideological themes. There's little evidence of forced representation or characters being defined more by demographic boxes than personality or skill.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

There are no obvious jabs at traditional values, family, or masculinity. The show seems to enjoy its classic, almost cozy British crime roots. You won’t find cultural revisionism or cheap shots at religion or long-standing norms here.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints are not mocked or villainized, mainly because ideology just isn’t a focus. Characters disagree and have quirks, but the series avoids turning into a lecture. It's refreshingly uninterested in 'pushing the message.'
