I can recall some old sitcoms, such as Brady bunch, or Andy Griffith, in which the characters went to church.

It wasn’t preachy by any means. It simply was matter of factly showing that these people went to church.

I doubt any shows today ever show any character in any religious context.

Even "The Simpsons" go to church. Bart even does his hair up nice for it.

In terms of sitcoms, I'd say that the last sitcom that had going to church as a common plot device was Everybody Loves Raymond.

Kevin James is a devout Catholic and his family goes to Mass on Kevin Can Wait. It’s not a huge part of the show, but it’s there.
