What We Think

If you're looking for a show dripping in woke ideology, you won’t find it here. The Jeff Dunham Show is a relic from before 'woke' comedy took over, poking fun across the board and embracing irreverence. Not exactly a beacon of progressive messaging!

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The Jeff Dunham Show is driven by comedy and ventriloquism, not social commentary. It prioritizes personality and jokes over ideological messaging, and character traits are more about comic absurdity than identity politics. Identity factors are not the focus, nor are there clear attempts at forced representation or flawless diverse characters.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional norms, cultural references, and even edgy humor remain intact, they may even go a little too far for modern tastes. The show doesn't rewrite traditions or attack religion, masculinity, or the family unit. If anything, it pokes fun at everyone, sometimes in ways that today’s woke critics would call 'problematic.'

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The jokes target all sides, with little effort to satisfy any single worldview, certainly not the modern progressive one. While some stereotypes are broad, the show gives no indication of ideological uniformity. Some viewers might even find the lack of conformity to modern moral assumptions jarring.
