What We Think

The Nine Lives of Chloe King dips its toes into early 'woke-lite' territory, with diverse casting and some modern social themes, but it's far from the preachy or one-note content we see today. Not especially egregious, but still mildly 'woke' by pre-2015 standards.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

While the show follows a fairly standard young adult supernatural plot, it does lean into casting diverse characters and exploring identity themes, though not quite to the heavy-handed levels of more recent series. Character arcs take a back seat at times to relationship drama and tropes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

There are some moments where traditional family structures and parental authority are sidelined in favor of teen independence. However, the show doesn’t aggressively lampoon religion or traditions, and masculine characters aren’t totally sidelined, just somewhat underdeveloped.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

It lightly leans into modern moral assumptions about identity, but there are still elements of debate, and not all traditional perspectives are vilified. It’s more neutral compared to current high-woke content, with a few predictable moments.
