I'm just at the stage of "black main characters? Skip!" I don't think I can ever again trust that they're there because the show is made well, and not just a hodgepodge of box-checking propaganda. I'll stick with my anime and 20+ year old movies for now. Alas, Sweet Tooth does look pretty good there.
I’ve come to that conclusion with anything after 2014. Black or female lead I’m not watching without a recommendation from a trusted source because like you said you have to wonder about the casting. Since Denzel is one of my all time favorites I give him leeway but mostly I watch older stuff
I'm not quite there yet, but I'm close. However, Twisted Metal has a few canonically black characters, so this raises no alarms for me. It wouldn't be Twisted Metal without Axel. And if Bruce Cochrane (AKA Thumper) made an appearance that'd be awesome.

I was alright with Will Smith until he became the world's most pussy-whipped little cuck imaginable.
