I find Steven universe and the legend of Korra to be woke cartoons!

Korra is mostly good, but there are a few axes I have to grind with it. For one, they started off by showing that benders are privileged with respect to non-benders, and that there's a guerrilla movement that wants to level the playing field, called the equalists. I was ready to root for them, but then the show casts them as the bad guys! Even if their leader was a fraud, the movement itself was good, but there wasn't any nuance - they were all portrayed as evil. Then, there was the hamfisted love triangle between Korra, Mako, and Bolin, that just didn't need to exist at all. The writers seemed to pick up on that after season 2, and they all stayed as just friends afterwards. There were a couple of other things that annoyed me, but I don't remember them, since I haven't watched the show in years. I mostly like it, but I wouldn't call it woke.

I don't really watch TV, but I do watch TV shows. I usually torrent what I want to watch. I also watch some anime and a lot of movies.
Series I liked: Black Mirror, GoT, Vampire Diaries (stopped watched a few seasons in), Rick & Morty and a few more.
For anime I am only watching Fate/Apocrypha atm, but have watched about 200-300 shows before. Less interested at the moment, haven't watched anything in 1-2 years besides this Fate.
I watched It today, which was nice. A few notable movies I recently watched and liked are: Suburban Gothic, To Write Love on her Arms, Get Out, RAW, The East and many many more.

I watch a lot of TV, usually series that I like or catch my interest. There's no common theme other than liking the characters or the stories.

quite like silly sitcoms like parks and rec, and peep show.
Peep show is an excellent sitcom, genuinely laugh out loud funny, with lots of subtle jabs at issues such as racism and political alignment. definitely recommend

Yes, Peep Show is fantastic. A classic!

I watch some TV, but most of it I cannot stand. Lately in my life I watch a few cartoons (until they piss me off for propagating white supremecy, fascism, capitalism, and/or patriarchy) and Sub Media.
The cartoons I watch are Rick and Morty and Adventure Time. Pretty much it.
