"Throughout the span of this volatile decade, the entity known as television had a bit of an identity crisis. As the era of streaming began, more shows were available than ever before and on an increasingly diverse array of channels and technologies to boot. "TV" became something far beyond just the square box that sat in our living rooms.
But regardless of what you call it, television as a medium still blossomed during the 2010s. "Prestige" networks like FX, AMC, and HBO kept up the good work while new streaming options like Netflix, Amazon Prime, and eventually Disney+ sprouted up all around them. The CW successfully rebranded under the Arrowverse and teen-friendly melodramas like Riverdale. The final effect of all the programming meant that whatever you wanted to find on television during the decade, you were likely able to find."
