Does going the game regularly give you a better insight on Everton as a team than watching on TV and the Internet?

Yes, both in terms of the footie itself and the entire culture of what Everton is about.
The TV limits what you can watch.

Obviously match-going Evertonians will say yes, and they'll also argue it makes them better fans too. They probably forget that many people live far away or even abroad and cannot go to the match, however, thus making their better-fan argument null and void.
In terms of better insight, I'd strongly say no. How can sitting in one spot at the match give better insight over watching a stream where there are 20 cameras and all sorts of half time and full time analysis? I'd like somebody from the Gwladys Street to tell me how them sat behind the goal surrounded by the smell of skunk and horse poo can give them a better insight than somebody watching on a stream, seeing the game from above and getting a better sense of positioning, etc. Impossible.
The only insight it would give is the feeling and atmosphere amongst matchday Evertonians and in the ground, but that's obvious.

I will find you and consensually bum you
At the match I tend to take in the performance of players not on the ball a lot more - positional play and reading of the game etc.
On the telly it's easier to judge individual performances with the focus on players who have been involved in the action more. Also having a clearer picture of what has happened in parts of the pitch you wouldn't ordinarily see very well can help.
If you stay at home when you could have gone the match though you're a bad quilt.
