As someone with "Don't Panic" tattoo'd on my left forearm, and as I pointed out in another comment: Adams' Magnum Opus is in no avoiding its messaging, the politics/author's opinion is extremely clear.
Can you give an example of the old, subtle (that's the word you were looking for, it's a subtle reference/theme) sci-fi show that was a "story with a disguised message" instead of the current "message with a disguised story"? I'm just trying to level set here.
- thinkingemote 16d agoAdams is a good example of a story with a message. A message with a story is more like today's TV sci-fi. The way the message is being told has changed because the message is incredibly important.
- moate 16d agoIf you didn’t actually want to give examples you can just say “no”. As someone else pointed out: you’re complaining that some media is poorly written and other media is well written. There are past and current examples of overtly opinionated shows that people love and message-less media that nobody cared about.
