Center
Primary
The show's central focus on solving legal cases and navigating family dynamics within established legal and social structures, without explicitly promoting or critiquing specific political ideologies, places it as neutral. The solutions championed rely on individual competence and adherence to the existing system rather than advocating for systemic change.
The series features a visibly diverse supporting cast, though its central family characters are white, without explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. The narrative maintains a neutral or positive framing of traditional identities, focusing on legal cases and family dynamics rather than explicit critiques or strong DEI themes.
Secondary
The show features Lyle, an openly gay recurring character, whose sexuality is depicted incidentally. His identity is treated as a normal part of his life, without being central to the plot or a source of conflict, mockery, or negative stereotypes. He is portrayed as a competent and respected professional.
The series 'So Help Me Todd' does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes within its narrative. Consequently, there is no portrayal to evaluate regarding transsexual identity, resulting in a net impact of N/A.
