We are living in a modern golden age of television. Don't let anyone tell you any different. There are more good television shows to watch today than there ever has been in previous decades. The increased influence of streaming services such as Netflix and the large operating budgets of content creators like HBO have led to this historic age. Big time actors and directors are signing up with Netflix, Amazon, Hulu and more rather than producing content elsewhere.
It almost seems as though even movies are now taking a backseat to TV shows in terms of the type of entertainment our society prefers. The advent of binge-watching as a cultural phenomenon plays a role in this development and has truly changed the way we watch TV. If you think you are a real TV addict then you will want to take this quiz and test your knowledge of modern television.
