Is Wokeness Killing Modern Stories?

In this essay, I explore the growing debate over whether wokeness is ruining modern storytelling in TV shows and movies. Using examples like The Rings of Power and The Wheel of Time, I analyze why these shows were criticized for their progressive themes but ultimately failed due to poor writing, pacing, and character development. In contrast, well-written shows like Arcane and Blue Eye Samurai are praised despite tackling similar themes. Discover why the real issue lies in the quality of storytelling—not wokeness. Join me today as I break down what makes or breaks a great show!
