As Time Goes By Season 6 delivers pure, old-school sitcom entertainment through Jean and Lionel's romance and everyday mishaps, with zero progressive messaging or social agendas. A perfect 0/10 on wokeness for viewers wanting neutral storytelling.
As Time Goes By Season 6 maintains a traditional casting approach with established white British leads Judi Dench as Jean Pargetter and Geoffrey Palmer as Lionel Hardcastle, both reprising roles unchanged from prior seasons or the source material.
This 1997 production centers on the later-life romance between these characters, delivering classic sitcom storytelling without any progressive messaging or identity-focused elements. The absence of DEI considerations, gender fluidity themes, or oppression narratives keeps the focus squarely on entertainment through familiar character dynamics and everyday situations. Episode plots reinforce this conventional framework by sticking to romance, retirement concerns, and neighborly incidents.
Lionel confronts a perceived stalker who turns out to be a lovesick teen, Jean visits a psychotherapist to address work-life balance, the pair hosts a dinner party involving a relative, and Alistair announces a sudden engagement. None of these storylines engage contemporary social justice themes or activist framing, reflecting a production era and creative intent free from such intrusions and resulting in unadulterated light comedy.
