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

‘Wellington Paranormal’ is mostly immune to the usual Hollywood wokeness. Its humor and character work prioritize entertainment over ideology, with only minor, if any, modern social messaging. A rare example of a recent show that hasn’t drunk the woke Kool-Aid.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The series largely plays things straight, focusing more on supernatural comedy than box-checking. Characters are quirky and natural within the show's world, with little evidence of forced representation or prioritizing identity over story. Any social commentary seems incidental and lightly handled rather than intrusive.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional roles, family, and religion are not major targets or themes. The humor generally leans harmless and apolitical. Masculinity and femininity are gently satirized, but the show does not seem intent on subverting foundational cultural ideas for ideological points.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

There’s little evidence of ideological uniformity or aggressive mockery of alternative views. While the show sometimes parodies bureaucracy and authority, this critique feels universal and comedic rather than woke or dogmatic.
