What We Think

The Madame Blanc Mysteries is about as non-woke as mainstream TV gets these days. Its focus remains on classic whodunit charm, with character diversity and modernity woven in without taking over. Hardly a woke minefield.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The Madame Blanc Mysteries largely focuses on mystery and character-driven storytelling, with little evidence that identity politics overwhelm the plot or define the characters. Casting appears sensible for the genre, avoiding overt box-ticking, and the protagonist is nuanced rather than an idealized version of diversity.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Family, tradition, and even hints of classic gender dynamics are present but updated subtly for modern sensibilities. The show doesn’t appear to mock or dismantle traditional values, instead offering gentle updates without ideological lecturing.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

There’s little evidence that traditional perspectives are ridiculed, and some episodes even treat different viewpoints with mild respect. The narrative generally avoids heavy-handed messaging or painting alternatives in a bad light.
