I would personally consider 2004 to be the quintessential year of the 2000s. It was a culmination of many elements which were relevant through different parts of the decade. On the music front, Nu-Metal still had a small, but influential presence on the charts that year, largely due to the success of the singles off Meteora and Fallen. Evanescene's "My Immortal" was one of the Top-20 best selling singles of 2004 in the U.S and it was a huge hit in many other countries as well.
The Emo movement also made significant inroads in 2004, thanks to the release of Blink-182's goth-inspired "I Miss You" and American Idiot, which while mostly a pop-punk and alternative-rock album, saw Green Day embrace the fashion aesthetics associated with the Emo scene. American Idiot told the story of the generation who came of age during the Iraq War.
From a television perspective, many of the defining shows of the naughties were in production during 2004. Shows that come to mind include Malcolm in the Middle, The Sopranos, Friends, Everybody Loves Raymond and Frasier. Drake and Josh, The Biggest Loser, Ned's Declassified and Danny Phantom debuted that year as well. In gaming, 2004 saw the release of "San Andreas" and "World of Warcraft", the former being one of the best selling video games of the 2000s.

2006/2007 were peak 2000s IMO. They had the perfect mix of early, mid, and late 2000s trends.

Either '04 or '05. But 2004 was a bigger year for pop culture imo.

Definitely 2004 for me, perfect cross between what came before and what will define things later.

Frasier is more of a 90's show; it takes place in Seattle, it seemed a lot more culturally 90's than 2000's, and it aired from 1993 to 2004. I agree, but it was still culturally relevant during the Early 2000s.

I'd probably say 2005.
*It was probably the absolute peak of emo, crunk, and snap rap culture.
*Malcolm in the Middle, That 70's Show, Charmed, Everybody Loves Raymond, and The Bernie Mac Show were all still making new episodes.

Not only was "Welcome to the Black Parade" a hit around Late 2006/the turn of 2007, these songs were also released that year:

Fashion trends from the early 2000s were still popular and technology from the early 2000s was still used. Plus the music wasn't all that different.
