Detailed Bias Analysis

Leans Traditional
Primary
The series focuses on the apolitical themes of individual adventure and resourcefulness, as a mild-mannered proofreader becomes an accidental hero through personal wit and luck, rather than engaging with explicit political ideologies.
This 1956 production features traditional casting, predominantly with white actors in mainstream roles. The narrative maintains a neutral or positive framing of traditional identities, consistent with the era's typical storytelling conventions.
Secondary
The Adventures of Hiram Holliday, a 1950s adventure comedy series, does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on the titular character's global escapades, with no elements suggesting queer identity or related storylines.
This adventure-comedy series primarily focuses on the intellectual and accidental heroism of its male protagonist, Hiram Holliday. Female characters in the show typically serve in supporting roles and are not depicted engaging in or winning direct physical combat against male opponents.
The 1956 television series adapts Paul Gallico's short stories, featuring Hiram Holliday, who is consistently portrayed as male in both the source material and the on-screen adaptation. No established characters from the source material appear to have their gender changed in the show.
Based on the source material by Paul Gallico and the 1956 television adaptation, there is no evidence that any character canonically established as one race was portrayed by an actor of a different race.
