Maybe I'm getting old and cranky, but the golden age of television was clearly 10 years ago. I'm hard-pressed to find any shows on streaming now that I like more than the ones I was watching back then (Justified, Breaking Bad, Sopranos, etc). Darker lighting and depressed characters do not a good show make.

And even if a streaming show starts with promise, you can almost guarantee now that it will be cancelled or the creators get bored of it before it ends.

The idea that corporations can treat entertainment like it's a mutual fund and throw money at content and some of it will be good enough is clearly failing. There's a race to the bottom to pump out these shows so quickly. Some of these projects are just starving for longer development time and more experienced involvement.
