What I'm really excited about is the high quality of shows that are starting to come from things like Netflix. House of Cards, OITNB and the new Daredevil series - whether you're a Marvel fan or not, IMO, the tone is perfect and the action scenes are easily on par with any Hollywood action thriller, and that sort of action has traditionally been a weak point on TV.
Opens up huge possibilities going forwards, I can easily see most scripted television going fully online within the next few decades. There's much more freedom and - whilst popularity is obviously still a factor - much less reliance on ratings and sponsors, and no chance of stupid things happening like good shows falling victim to bad time slots on scheduled telly.
