Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The show focuses on personal growth, family, and the regrets of aging rather than pushing identity politics. Characters are developed based on their experiences and choices, not simply their gender or background. There is little evidence of forced representation or identity-first character building.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional family values and the dignity of aging are prominent themes. The show respects intergenerational relationships and does not undermine family structure, religion, or masculinity in any apparent way. Both male and female characters are multidimensional, without forced subversion of gender roles.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints exist, and the narrative does not villainize traditional values or dissenters. Morality and empathy cross generational lines, with no monolithic ideology dominating the story.
