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 IT Crowd is virtually unwoke by modern standards, focusing on classic workplace humor rather than identity politics or ideological messaging. It stands as a throwback to when sitcoms prioritized laughs over lectures.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The IT Crowd prioritizes character-driven humor and workplace antics over box-checking or identity politics. Characters feel rooted in personality quirks rather than demographic labels. Forced representation is virtually nonexistent, and diverse characters are treated with balance, not as untouchable superheroes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The series pokes fun at modern office culture but doesn't take aim at traditional values, masculinity, or family structures. If anything, it lampoons tech culture without undermining broader cultural norms. There’s little to suggest subversion for its own sake.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While the humor is distinctly British and irreverent, the show doesn’t bury alternative perspectives or villainize traditional viewpoints. Dissenting or unusual views are sources of comedy, not moral lectures. The series is refreshingly pluralistic compared to later sitcoms.
