There was a Rick and Morty episode with a similar premise where sapient dinosaurs come to Earth and make things better to the point where Rick resents it and wants them gone.In a way, some aspects of the premise remind me very faintly of the first run syndicated series Earth: Final Conflict, advanced aliens come to Earth, offer their technology and help us out but they may have an agenda, (they do, actually) and secrets (oh yes). So, part of the basic premise has been done before in various ways. V, for instance, and Keith Laumer's novel "The Monitors", a humorous twist on the idea of the "benevolent" alien invasion, where the invading aliens are actually extremely benevolent and do all they can to raise up mankind. They can use their advanced technology to provide free food, education, housing, and all, but there are human resistance groups, who resent all of this as being extremely paternalistic.
I forgot what it was called, but it had some stupid pun name like most R&M eps do.
