What We Think

Tidying Up with Marie Kondo is about as non-woke as modern TV gets. It’s charming, neutral, and focused on practical, personal improvement and family, a rare island of calm amid usual Hollywood fare. You can relax: your sock drawer isn’t about to lecture you.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Tidying Up with Marie Kondo sticks to its core premise: organizing and decluttering homes. Characters and guests appear based on their need for help with organization, not as vehicles for ideological representation. Identity traits play no significant role in undermine narrative integrity.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show is refreshingly apolitical, focusing on home, family, and personal discipline, rather than subverting any cultural or moral traditions. If anything, it encourages viewers to respect their belongings and create harmonious households, aligning with traditional values.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There's little evidence of ideological monoculture; the series presents a diversity of families and individual stories, but not in a way that pushes ideology. The absence of overt debate is due to the format, not a push for conformity.
