Does anyone else feel like there's an increase in Christianity being treated "as the norm" on various TV / streaming series?

Maybe it's always been as prevalent and I'm just too sensitive lately?

I was watching the Christmas special of a Netflix cartoon I kind of like, and they started singing O Holy Night at the end. I know that doesn't seem surprising, but the entire rest of the episode (and the show in general) was pretty secular, with no mention of religion at all. The Christmas the show depicts was usually more the Santa Claus type of Christmas, but then there's a religious song out of nowhere.

as a jew (and an atheist, i hasten to add) i have always been more aware of it than others to whom i mention it (everyone is always surprised and claims not to notice). however, i think there really is an increase in the assumption. i see more commercials for online universities, and being christian is mentioned matter-of-factly as one of the universities' advantages. i see commercials for various sects. shows appear to be culture-bound in a christian way. i'm not just noticing it more (because as i say i have always noticed it). there IS more.

Too much of it anyway.

From my view - it's always saturated the world, and is often a real pain in the butt !

I see an increase.

It’s prevalence in politics on the Republican side has been increased drastically. On FOX they like to roll thier eyes as they say non believers are dumb, Hanity tells more fake news with his expressions than his mouth.... I would say religion is increasing in the Republican Party in decreasing in the Democratic Party… As for third-party folks, they just aren’t helping anybody.

Ir seems the same as always to me, but I live on the edge of the Bible Belt.
