one of the newer arrivals worth your time, Woke is currently streaming in the US on Hulu with a 5/10 audience score that speaks for itself. 16 episodes — the right length to tell the story it's telling.

Woke does what great comedies rarely manage — it's actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. Keef, an African-American cartoonist, is finally on the verge of mainstream success when an unexpected incident changes everything. He must now navigate the new voices and ideas that confront and challenge him, all without setting aflame everything he's already built. Lamorne Morris and T. Murph lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. The series ran for 2 seasons (2020–2022), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly.

The kind of show you put on in the background and find yourself actually paying attention to.
