Thanks for the comments and suggestions.
Yes, Silo is on my list as is Foundation.
One more episode to finish out season 2 of For All Mankind. At 3:30 AM this morning I threw in the towel and gave up for the night. As far as the drama and feelz stuff goes, I can deal with it although I like the space stuff more.
One thing I didn't comment on that some may have found too in-your-face or "woke" was the LGBT inclusion. In Invasion, Mitsuku Yamato's character was driven throughout the series by the loss of her girlfriend/lover Hinata. Actually, it was kind of fundamental to the whole story.
In For All Mankind, the arc of astronaut Ellen Waverly-Wilson's love affair with bartender turned poet Pam Horton and her marriage of convenience and hiding in the closet during the Reagan administration was a good hook for me personally and something I could relate to knowing what it was like to be different back then when many of my friends were lesbians or gay and the last thing I wanted anyone to know about me was that I wasn't born female.
That's still the last thing I want anybody to know even after all these years except for you all here when I sometimes talk about it. At any rate, I found addition of not straight characters in both of these stories to make them more relatable.

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
