Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Progressive

Primary

The series critiques the moral ambiguities and long-term consequences of government covert operations, but it does so without explicitly promoting a specific political ideology or offering a systemic solution, instead focusing on individual survival and the cyclical nature of violence.

The movie incorporates visible diversity within its cast, featuring minority actors in key supporting roles. However, the narrative primarily focuses on its spy thriller plot, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering around explicit DEI themes.

Secondary

The series features Emily Chase, a significant character, in a same-sex relationship depicted with dignity and normalcy. Her queer identity is integrated naturally into her character arc, presented without judgment or as a source of conflict, contributing to a respectful and affirming portrayal.

The series 'The Old Man' does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The storyline is centered on espionage and a protagonist's past, with no elements related to transgender identity or experiences. Therefore, there is no portrayal to evaluate.

The show features female characters in significant roles, including an FBI agent and a civilian caught in the conflict. While these characters are involved in dangerous situations and use firearms, there are no depicted scenes where a female character defeats one or more male opponents in direct physical combat using skill, strength, or martial arts.

The show "The Old Man" is an adaptation of Thomas Perry's novel. All major characters retain the same gender as established in the source material.

The show is an adaptation of a novel. For all major characters, their on-screen race aligns with their established race in the source material. For characters whose race was not specified in the novel, their portrayal does not constitute a race swap per the defined exclusion criteria.
