The best of TV is still really good.
Also you are generalizing a lot. For instance, I know a few young folks who are into older TV. I find this fascinating, as they really have more access to the world’s back catalog, and more means to sort through it, than other generations ever have.
…I’m less enthusiastic about movies specifically. The big ones people actually discuss are like Marvel junk food, and I find that TV has much more time to build and play with characters.
Individual actors as personalities have less star power, and are less prominent culturally because there's more competition now. There's indeed still a lot of high quality modern TV series around.
