Insightful and inciteful
"Am I Racist?" is a snarky look at DEI and the views of the Left. It is refreshingly rabidly anti-woke. Maybe Matt Walsh will get better at this in the future, but especially in the first part he just came off like an asshole. It is a very fine line when you want to act like an idiot and have people believe you, but not so much an idiot that they see through your act. Matt went too far blew and his cover in one of the first segments. Borat he is not. Sacha Cohen is better at the art of stupid. Still, Walsh is successful in exposing the bizarre, racist views of Leftists and how disconnected they are from the experiences of black and white average Americans, even in Mississippi. Walsh also exposes the grifting of DEI "experts". He paid about $5K just for an on-camera interview with one black woman DEI "expert" who was laughable. He even gets into the grift himself at the end, making a couple thousand for spewing DEI nonsense to a room of paying students. I think software engineering is the wrong profession for me, LOL. "Am I Racist?" is worth a watch for the insight with a side of comedic value.

Blatent LGBT agenda ruins a great show
This American copy of the UK version has a great premise. The only issue is the gradual culturing of a homosexual relationship between two of the ghosts. It blossoms into a full blown romance. The UK version has something similar but it's more of a series of small quips rather than agenda. I recommend passing on the US version.

The woke starts slow and builds
The wokeness is mostly subtle over the first few episodes. Most of the cases involve greedy corporations exploiting poor black folks. White males are predominately either incompetent or nefarious. One of the running plots in character building is a lesbian. Her coworkers encourage her to pursue a same-sex relationship with a lesbian IT tech. As much as I like Kathy Bates and the basic plot, this one has an agenda.
