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

'Undergrads' is a product of its pre-woke era. It emphasizes fun over messaging, allowing for genuine character flaws, traditional themes, and good-natured humor. Woke elements are nearly nonexistent, something you sadly don't see much of these days.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

'Undergrads' focuses on relatable college experiences, with character quirks and conflicts based on genuine personality differences rather than identity politics. In our view, casting and character arcs are merit-driven, not dictated by modern ideological checklists. Forced representation and flawless heroes are largely absent.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional social structures like male friendships, family, and coming-of-age awkwardness are central. Masculinity is played for laughs at times but also celebrated. Cultural commentary rarely veers into deliberate revisionism or overt critique of longstanding traditions.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Most of the show's humor comes from poking fun at a variety of college stereotypes without clear ideological bias. There's little effort to mock, villainize, or erase alternative perspectives; diversity of opinion within the group is common, if a bit exaggerated for comedic effect.
