Resident Alien is just preachy enough without being too preachy to my taste. Everyone is going to have their own lines on that one. I love that various perspectives are taken and that an actress with Native American heritage is a star. I find it odd that Sara Tomko doesn't have a Wikipedia page, she must not want one or something. "I am not a part of a tribe or a community,” Tomko explains, “and so it’s respectful to acknowledge and showcase that there are so many wonderful native actors on this show." (source)
Mare of Easttown is realism with a serial killer. I still find it amazing that British people can do flawless American accents, but American actors can't do British accents. Or Scottish, or Welsh or Irish of any of the finely chopped move a mile and have a different accent of those blobs of islands of English speaking Europe.

I’ve also watched Orville 3 seasons. I don’t hate it but it feels like discount Star Trek with a Seth twist. And it just steps over the preachy line for me. Maybe I don’t like the causes that lead to these narratives. It doesn't feel as subtle as Star Trek. I watched it and mostly enjoyed it. I wish the fans and creators well.
