What We Think

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The New Alfred Hitchcock Presents largely sticks to suspenseful, character-driven storytelling, much like the original. There’s little evidence that identity politics overshadow narrative, as casting and character arcs generally reflect story needs rather than checking boxes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show mostly preserves traditional values and morality as part of its structure, rarely subverting classic family, religious, or gender norms. It leans into the suspense thriller format without overt efforts to update long-standing cultural touchstones for modern ideological purposes.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints, particularly those reflecting traditional morals or ambiguous ethics, are part and parcel of the anthology’s DNA. Few, if any, episodes overtly mock or cartoonishly villainize dissenting worldviews, staying true to the genre’s roots in pluralistic tension.
