Does live TV still matter for shared cultural moments?
I've been a TV producer for over a decade, and lately I'm questioning whether traditional broadcast television still has a place when streaming platforms offer on-demand everything. We keep hearing about cord-cutting, but millions of people still tune in to live events like sports and news. Could it be that linear TV survives because of shared cultural moments, or is that just nostalgia? I'm curious if anyone here under 30 actually watches scheduled programming anymore, or if that's a habit we've lost for good.
