I’d say it’s still going strong as we just had an oscar winner (Matthew McConaughey) star in a great TV show (True Detective), while Kevin Spacey is creeping us all out in House of Cards. That’s a far cry from George Clooney never looking back after ER.
The last 10 years have been considered the golden age of TV. The Wire, The Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Six Feet Under, Game of Thrones, Mad Men, Boardwalk Empire, Lost, The Shield, Friday Night Lights, Sons of Anarchy. Granted not all of these shows are on the same level but compared to TV in the 90’s, they’re on another level, all kicked off in '99 by our favourite mobster with a shrink.
