To watch the movement from "cutting the cord" to cable, to what the streamers have become. I remember quickly returning DVDs to Netflix so I could get the next disc while I got caught up on Battlestar Galactica and Dexter. Their streaming library started very small, but it has since become the largest collection ever assembled.

On that note, I'm several seasons behind on Stranger Things. I think it's time to dive in, perhaps in time for the theatrical release finale.
