What We Think

"The Village" earns high marks for its commitment to agenda-driven storytelling and heavy-handed representation but falls short on fostering authentic debate or showcasing traditional values without caricature.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The show places strong emphasis on bringing together a mix of characters defined largely by their identities and modern social issues. In our view, this sometimes overshadows deeper, more organic character development. Storylines often revolve around topical themes, occasionally at the expense of more timeless narrative arcs.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional family and religious roles are downplayed or reimagined in favor of unconventional family structures and progressive values. Masculinity and traditional roles are generally sidelined, with a focus on celebrating modern and alternative lifestyles.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The show presents a predominantly one-sided worldview. Alternative or traditional perspectives are rarely explored sincerely and, when shown, are typically used as fodder for conflict or are portrayed as needing correction by the main cast.
