NBC’s Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist is the latest program to suddenly tackle racism in the wake of last summer's Black Lives Matter protests. The show follows Zoey (Jane Levy) as she navigates working at the tech company SPRQPoint. But celebrating a young woman in her leadership role takes a backseat to the "systemic racism" going on at the company, specifically in February 9’s…

The superhero shows on the CW have returned for 2021, and with them come all the usual cliches. Good guys fighting bad guys, lots of special effects, and, of course, the blatant liberal agenda. The Black Lightning season 4 premiere does all that with a scene that promotes the Black Lives Matter narrative and the return of the old MAGA treatment. Namely, that only bad guys ever want to…

When the staff members for new L.A. Mayor Neil Bremer (Ted Danson) are forced to gather for a mandatory HR training session, during the aptly titled “Respect in the Workplace” episode on February 4 of NBC’s Mr. Mayor, hilarity ensues.

The 2020-21 TV season may end up being remembered as the year Black Lives Matter occupied scripted television. Or the year Hollywood finally buried its last vestige of original creativity. Either way, the last few months of popular TV have been one long overdose of video virtue signaling.

Stop me if you’ve heard this one: a cop/legal drama drops everything it’s doing to cater to BLM propaganda and lies. Unsurprisingly, the ABC legal drama For Life is back to blatantly butcher the Jacob Blake case, all for the sake of Black Lives Matter.

There are some things in life you can always count on. Death. Taxes. And ABC’s racial comedy black-ish painting white people as ignorant, annoying and racist. Which is racist in and of itself, but someone apparently forgot to tell them that.

Here I thought cop dramas were the only shows under leftist scrutiny. Before it’s even aired, CBS’s new Silence of the Lambs drama Clarice is drawing attention from transgender activists. So much so, the series now has a token transgender character to discuss the “complicated legacy” of the original film. Liberals should just put out a list of things that aren’t “complicated…

Friday, January 29, would have been the 48th March for Life in DC. Due to COVID-19 concerns, however, the decision was made to make it virtual. We know at least one thing won’t change: the media will again try not to acknowledge the March’s existence. Even when President Donald Trump spoke at least year’s March for Life, the event only received 28 seconds worth of network coverage. 

Even though the show's originally from Canada, the latest supernatural drama on CW, Trickster, stays completely on brand with the woke network as its latest episode features a die-in protest against fossil fuels.

CBS's woke court drama All Rise has spent all season pushing BLM propaganda. One lie that Black Lives Matter promotes is the myth that America's first police departments were created to capture fugitive slaves. The leader of Black Lives Matter of Greater New York even said on Fox News that the first police departments were used as "slave patrols." One way that leftism attempts to…

The stakes are higher in January 24’s episode of The Rookie, “Sabotage,” now that Officer Jackson West (Titus Makin Jr.) is working together with Sergeant Wade Grey (Richard T. Jones), and fellow officers Lucy Chen (Melissa O'Neil) and Tim Bradford (Erica Winter) to take down Officer Doug Stanton (Brandon Routh), presented to viewers as a racist white cop personified. 

Leave it to CBS’s excellent hit cop drama Blue Bloods to confront anti-police sentiment head-on and depict how it affects not only officers, but their families as well. Especially their children, as was the case in Friday’s episode, “Spilling Secrets,” as Sean (Andrew Terraciano), son of Officer Danny Reagan (Donnie Wahlberg) who also has many other NYPD officers and officials in his…

Good to know that some things haven’t changed under a new president. NBC’s Law & Order: Special Victims Unit is still here to smear #MeToo critics and misremember the Kavanaugh accusations all in the name of messed-up social justice. It’s just as bad as it sounds.

Last year on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, The CW’s high school football drama All American celebrated the important holiday with a racially divisive episode targeting police officers. The new season opened on the evening of King’s holiday this year with a tribute to the extremist, socialist group Black Lives Matter, as well as a dig at “racist” America.
