The Worst Witch2017

In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

The Worst Witch blends classic children’s fantasy with updated messaging around identity and empowerment. It tips its witch’s hat toward modern diversity and gender themes but stops short of aggressive preaching, making it moderate on the woke scale, modern, yes, but not overbearing.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

The show features a diverse cast and emphasizes acceptance and empowerment themes, but mostly keeps character development and storylines at the forefront. At times, modern ideological elements poke through, yet plot and whimsy generally take precedence over messaging.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

Traditional family and gender roles are gently subverted, most authority figures are female, and the magical setting is heavily matriarchal. However, the tone is playful rather than preachy, and longstanding folklore concepts are largely respected if updated.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Dissenting perspectives or traditional views are rarely given focus, but the series avoids outright caricature or villainization. There is a subtle push for progressive values, with little debate about alternative viewpoints among characters.
