The Inclusion List for episodic programming, which recognizes the most inclusive series in broadcast, cable and streaming. Following a similar effort for films, the list analyzes on-screen and behind-the-camera personnel from more than 500 programs to determine the 100 most inclusive broadcast and cable series from the 2021-22 broadcast season, as well as streaming series from 2021 to 2023.
The project also recognizes 20 producers responsible for the most inclusive content. “The goal of the Inclusion List is to recognize the stories and storytellers who are taking inclusion seriously and whose content reflects their values,” said Dr.
Smith, founder of the Annenberg Inclusion Initiative. “With today’s release of the Inclusion List for broadcast/cable and streaming series, we are excited to acknowledge the creative voices championing inclusion across the spectrum of episodic content.” The top 10 broadcast and cable series were “Queen Sugar” (OWN), “The Baby” (HBO), “Naomi” (CW), “All American: Homecoming” (CW), “Twenties” (BET), “Queens” (ABC), “The Kings of Napa” (OWN), “4400” (CW), “Sistas” (BET) and “P-Valley” (Starz).
