The New Norm
tv·Jun 25, 2024·
The New Norm earns a 0/10 woke score by building its entire premise around a conservative protagonist resisting progressive re-education, with zero ideological messaging in the storytelling. This makes it safe, straightforward sitcom entertainment centered on laughs rather than politics.
"The New Norm" centers on conservative protagonist Norm, a trophy shop worker placed under house arrest after confronting a school board over lessons on gender identity and wokeness; he is then forced to host non-binary influencer Chaz as part of a re-education effort, with the narrative portraying these progressive intrusions as absurd.
The series uses a traditional family-sitcom format modeled on All in the Family but inverted to champion right-wing viewpoints, while satirizing election-year partisan divides, cryptocurrency schemes, and broader cultural shifts, supported by voice performances such as Larry Elder as Norm's like-minded friend Charlie. Across the reviewed season, the show exhibits virtually no progressive ideological influence in its premise or storytelling. This produces the official overall woke score of 0/10.
Methodology: Each score synthesizes audience discourse, critic and aggregator reception, and press coverage — weighed against the work itself, not any single source.
