All TV shows from Black, creators of BIPOC in 2022-2023 – List update

Progress continues to be incremental in front of and behind television cameras in Hollywood. A UCLA TV Diversity Study in October 2021 looked at 461 scripted TV shows that aired or streamed during the 2019-20 season. It found that only 32.1% of scripted shows on the broadcast network, 28.1% on cable TV and 26.8% on streaming platforms, featured predominantly non-white actors. Each category has seen an increase of about 2 to 3 percent over the previous season. In summary, despite popular claims of a “renaissance” for BIPOC creatives in Hollywood (especially African Americans), there is still a lot of work to be done on the issue of inclusion in all fields of life. ‘use.

As their study indicates, the BIPOC group is not represented in proportion to its share of the American population, even though public interest in programming with talent that represents the diversity of the country continues to increase.

When BIPOC stories are vetted by non-BIPOC creatives, the character plots may lack authenticity, or may feature stereotypically dependent writing, or characters described as “uncultured.” Therefore, a key question to never stop asking is whether the nation’s so-called “racial calculation” will have a real impact on the hiring practices of the industry in a way that will show up in the future. 2022 TV diversity reports. For now, the outlook remains hazy.

One thing is clear is that reality TV reigns supreme and, based on each network’s 2022 timeline, this is a trend that will not only continue, but accelerate.

Here’s IndieWire’s take on the scripted series created and / or overseen by BIPOC creatives for major platforms, slated for the 2022/2023 TV season. The list will be updated as networks (especially streamers) consolidate their lineups and make mid-season announcements. However, it’s still unclear what exactly the traditional TV schedule will look like next year and beyond, with disruptors like Netflix featuring new series virtually every week throughout the year, and new streamers. solidifying their position.

Throughout the year there have been numerous announcements of new series, driver pickups and series orders, but most have not yet been dated and are therefore excluded from the list below, which will be updated periodically, as firm dates are set.
