After 60 years its suddenly a female doctor, then a black (possibly gay) doctor, then a trans companion, not to mention a glut of in your face woke episodes - so yes, its looks remarkibly like another box ticking exercise.
Or is it just that white people have decided that if anyone of different race, gender or sexual orientation get acting jobs instead of white males that it's 'box ticking'.

Messages have always been part of TV programs. Going right back to 60s Star Trek. However people were not as 'woke' back then so the messages didn't seem as in your face, but watching them now it's fairly obvious, same even for kids programs like He-Man and Captain Planet.
