Cursed (2020) includes a positively portrayed romantic relationship between the female characters Pym and Squirrel. Their bond is depicted as loving and supportive, integrated naturally into the story without being a source of conflict or ridicule. This representation contributes to an affirming net impact for LGBTQ+ themes.

The series features several female characters, including Nimue, Red Spear, and Mother Superior Lenore, who are depicted engaging in and winning close-quarters physical combat against multiple male opponents, primarily Red Paladin soldiers, using melee weapons like swords and spears.

The series 'Cursed' features characters such as Arthur and Morgana, who are canonically and widely established as white in traditional Arthurian legend, portrayed by actors of different races.

The series portrays Christianity almost exclusively through the fanatical Red Paladins, who commit widespread atrocities, persecution, and genocide in the name of their faith. The narrative offers no significant positive counter-balance to this depiction of religious extremism and institutional cruelty.
