What We Think

‘Was It Love?’ is a refreshing departure from the typical Hollywood ‘woke’ formula. Rooted in conventional romance and family narratives, it keeps cultural revisionism and ideological uniformity to a minimum. If you’re tired of ideological lectures and craving a classic rom-com vibe, this show delivers.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

In our view, 'Was It Love?' prioritizes traditional romantic storytelling rather than forcing identity politics onto the narrative. Characters are defined more by their personalities and circumstances than by modern ideological checkboxing, with no obvious ‘checklist’ casting on display.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values such as family and parenthood are front and center. The show highlights the struggles of a single mother but does not undermine masculinity or portray classic relationships as problematic. It respects societal structures rather than trying to upend them for the sake of ideology.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There is room for differing viewpoints between the romantic leads and side characters. The series doesn't openly mock traditional roles, and any ideological leanings are mild or absent. It refrains from deep-diving into modern identity politics, letting interpersonal dynamics drive the drama.
