”’New Sincerity”’ (closely related to and sometimes described as synonymous with [[post-postmodernism]]) is a trend in [[music]], [[aesthetics]], [[literary fiction]], [[film criticism]], [[poetry]], [[literary criticism]] and [[philosophy]] that generally describes creative works that expand upon and break away from concepts of [[postmodernism|postmodernist]] [[irony]] and [[Cynicism (contemporary)|cynicism]].

“New Sincerity” was used as a collective name for a loose group of [[alternative rock]] bands, centered in [[Austin, Texas]], in the years from about 1985 to 1990, who were perceived as reacting to the ironic outlook of then-prominent music movements like [[punk rock]] and [[New wave music|new wave]].

Despite extensive critical attention (including national coverage in ”[[Rolling Stone]]” and a 1985 episode of the [[MTV]] program ”[[I.R.S.

In the early 2020’s, the shift toward a more overt embrace of New Sincerity was codified in James Poniewozik’s New York Times piece titled, “How TV Went From David Brent to Ted Lasso.”<ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/26/arts/television/ted-lasso-the-office.html Ted Lasso Leads a New Era of Sincere TV – The New York Times]</ref> Poniewozik details the shift, arguing that “In TV’s ambitious comedies, as well as dramas, the arc of the last 20 years is not from bold risk-taking to spineless inoffensiveness. But it is, in broad terms, a shift from irony to sincerity. By “irony” here, I don’t mean the popular equation of the term with cynicism or snark. I mean an ironic mode of narrative, in which what a show ‘thinks’ is different from what its protagonist does. Two decades ago, TV’s most distinctive stories were defined by a tone of dark or acerbic detachment. Today, they’re more likely to be earnest and direct.” Poniewozik goes on to address possible impetus for doing away with the disjoint between writer and character ascribing some cause to what Emily Nussbaum calls “Bad Fans”,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.newyorker.com/culture/culture-desk/that-mind-bending-phone-call-on-last-nights-breaking-bad|title = That Mind-Bending Phone Call on Last Night’s “Breaking Bad”|date = September 16, 2013}}</ref> but the thrust of his critique centers on the possible shift towards the representation of new and previously unrepresented voices. As Poniewozik puts it, “In some cases, it’s also a question of who has gotten to make TV since 2001. Antiheroes like David Brent and Tony Soprano, after all, came along after white guys like them had centuries to be heroes. The voices and faces of the medium have diversified, and if you’re telling the stories of people and communities that TV never made room for before, skewering might not be your first choice of tone. I don’t want to oversimplify this: Series like “Atlanta,” “Ramy,” “Master of None” and “Insecure” all have complex stances toward their protagonists. But they also have more sympathy toward them than, say, “Arrested Development.” <ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/26/arts/television/ted-lasso-the-office.html|title = How TV Went from David Brent to Ted Lasso|newspaper = The New York Times|date = July 26, 2021|last1 = Poniewozik|first1 = James}}</ref> With this perspective in mind and the populous shift towards an embrace of diverse views and opinions,<ref>https://www.gallup.com/workplace/352742/diversity-equity-inclusion-lessons-231-chros.aspx</ref> the appearance of new sincerity in film and television is understandable if not expected.
