Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Progressive

Primary

The series balances the progressive theme of an African-American man rising to high political office through individual merit with themes of pragmatic governance, fiscal responsibility, and satire of bureaucratic inefficiency, resulting in a neutral political stance.

The series centers on a Black protagonist who ascends to prominent political roles, challenging traditional casting norms. Its narrative frequently highlights the protagonist's superior competence and ethics in contrast to the predominantly white establishment, thereby offering a strong critique of traditional power dynamics and identities.

Secondary

The series 'Benson' does not feature identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes, resulting in no specific portrayal to evaluate within the scope of this framework. The narrative focuses on political and domestic humor without engaging with queer identities.

The TV series 'Benson' does not include any identifiable transsexual characters or themes in its narrative. The show primarily focuses on political and workplace comedy, with no depiction of transgender identity.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

Benson is a spin-off series from "Soap" and features original characters or characters carried over from "Soap" maintaining their established gender. There are no instances of characters canonically established as one gender being portrayed as a different gender.

The character Benson DuBois originated in the show "Soap" as a Black character portrayed by Robert Guillaume. In the spin-off series "Benson," the character continues to be portrayed by Robert Guillaume, maintaining the established race. No other characters meet the criteria for a race swap.
