Leans Progressive
Primary
The show is rated -1 (Left-Leaning) because its central narrative consistently critiques the moral decay and systemic corruption enabled by extreme wealth and privilege, a primary concern of progressive ideology. While it doesn't advocate for radical systemic change, its satirical portrayal of the ultra-rich aligns with left-leaning social commentary.
The movie features visible diversity in its cast, though its core family remains traditionally portrayed without explicit race or gender swaps of established roles. The narrative critiques the wealthy elite but does not specifically target traditional identities in a DEI-focused manner, maintaining a neutral to positive framing of these identities.
Secondary
Dirty Sexy Money features Jeremy Darling, an openly bisexual main character, whose relationships with both men and women, including a significant arc with a transgender woman, are depicted with dignity and complexity. The show portrays LGBTQ+ identities as valid, focusing on character-driven drama rather than negative stereotypes or ridicule, resulting in a net positive impact.
The show prominently features Reverend Brian Darling, an Episcopalian priest, who is consistently portrayed as hypocritical, morally compromised, and using his religious position for personal and family gain. The narrative uses his character to satirize the moral failings and lack of genuine faith among the wealthy elite.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Dirty Sexy Money is an original television series from 2007. All characters were created specifically for this show, meaning there is no prior source material, historical record, or previous installment to establish a canonical gender for any character that could then be swapped.
