Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist2020

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

Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist checks nearly every woke box: identity-first storytelling, reverence for modern progressive values, and a bubble of ideological uniformity. If you’re looking for traditional narratives or pluralism, this playlist might not be your jam.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The show leans heavily on diversity, racial, gender, and sexuality, often foregrounding these traits over more organic character building. Some storylines feel engineered to check every identity box rather than serve the narrative naturally, and certain characters are portrayed as virtually flawless, which can sap dramatic tension.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional norms around gender, family, and religion are often subverted or depicted as outdated. Masculinity is frequently sidelined, while female and queer characters are celebrated as inherently virtuous and enlightened, not always grounded in believable character development.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews are largely absent. Whenever 'traditional' perspectives appear, they're filtered through a lens of mockery or heavy-handed critique. The show upholds a pretty uniform, modern progressive outlook, with little space for real, nuanced debate.
