What We Think

The Witch lands right in the upper echelons of woke TV for 2025, checking just about every cultural and ideological box with little subtlety. If you're looking for old-fashioned story-driven content, this series might leave you rolling your eyes.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

In our view, "The Witch" seems eager to foreground identity factors with some characters feeling shoehorned in purely to tick diversity boxes. While it doesn't fully toss its story aside, there's an overemphasis on progressive themes that sometimes muddies character arcs and undermines narrative focus.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The series appears quite eager to question or invert traditional roles, particularly around gender and family. Masculinity takes more than a few hits, often played for laughs or as a moral lesson, while more conventional cultural touchstones feel deliberately sidelined.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Most dissenting perspectives come packaged as buffoonish or villainous, and alternative worldviews are rarely given a fair airing. It's the usual one-note moral consensus blowing through town, with limited room for nuance or respectful ideological debate.
