We are in a Golden Age of Television. The culture surrounding television has only grown since this period started. However, the community aspect of Television has dramatically changed since the internet’s conception. Thanks to the internet, video streaming and on-demand video platforms are as popular as ever. They have given us the ability to watch television anywhere, at any time. While the internet has granted us these pleasures, it has given birth to a minefield of spoilers on social media sites. Because of this, people avoid the community that surrounds their shows.
