IMDbPro and ReFrame, an initiative of Sundance Institute and Women in Film, today announced the recipients of the ReFrame TV Stamp for gender-balanced hiring.
Ninety-four of the 200 most popular scripted series of the 2022-23 season have met the criteria with Emmy-nominated comedies leading the way.
Five of the eight top comedies – Abbott Elementary, Only Murders in the Building, The Bear, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and Wednesday — met the gender-balanced production criteria, while only one of the eight nominated series in the Outstanding Drama category (Yellowjackets) earned the Stamp, a decline from last year when three of the eight drama nominees qualified.
The ReFrame TV Stamp, launched in 2018, is awarded to scripted series that hire women or people of other underrepresented genders (including those who are trans, non-binary or gender non-conforming) in at least 50% of key roles including: showrunner, writers, directors, producers, lead, co-leads, and department heads.
