Primary
The series receives a neutral rating because its central focus is on the apolitical themes of family dynamics, personal struggles, and adaptation within a rural setting, rather than explicitly promoting a specific political ideology. It presents a nuanced view that incorporates elements resonating with both left and right perspectives without taking a definitive stance.
The series features a predominantly traditional cast without explicit race or gender swaps of established roles. Its narrative focuses on family dynamics and ranch life, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering DEI themes.
Secondary
The Ranch features LGBTQ+ characters, including an openly lesbian friend, Darlene, and a former rodeo star, Luke, who comes out as gay. The show portrays Luke's coming out arc with initial discomfort from a traditional character, Beau, but ultimately resolves with Beau's acceptance and support, affirming Luke's identity. The overall portrayal is supportive and validating.
The show frequently features Christian cultural elements, church attendance, and references to God within its rural setting. While it often satirizes the hypocrisy or social dynamics of some adherents, it also portrays the genuine comfort, community, and moral framework that characters derive from their faith, without condemning Christianity itself.
The television series "The Ranch" does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes within its narrative. The show primarily focuses on the lives of a dysfunctional family running a ranch in Colorado, exploring themes of family, relationships, and small-town life without engaging with transgender identity.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
