Center
Primary
The show's core focus on interpersonal drama, family dynamics, and lifestyle is largely apolitical, neither promoting nor critiquing specific political ideologies or systemic issues.
The series features a cast that is predominantly white and mainstream, reflecting a specific demographic without intentional DEI-driven casting or role swaps.

Secondary

The show generally portrays LGBTQ+ identities with acceptance and support, with cast members openly embracing and advocating for their LGBTQ+ loved ones and participating in related events. While reality TV drama may sensationalize some discussions, the overall message conveyed is one of validation and respect.
The show portrays Christianity, particularly Catholicism, as a significant cultural and spiritual foundation for many characters, often depicting genuine moments of faith and reliance on religious values. While it exposes the hypocrisy of some adherents, the narrative implicitly critiques these individual failings rather than the faith itself, often highlighting the aspirational virtues of the religion.
