Selome Hailu During the 2021-2022 season 94 scripted series earned the ReFrame Stamp for gender-balanced hiring. Among them were “Bridgerton,” “Euphoria,” “Abbott Elementary,” “Yellowjackets” and more.
As 200 series were considered, 47% were found to earn the stamp — a 7% decrease since the previous year.Each “Stamped” series was found to hire women or individuals of other underrepresented gender identities (including those who are non-binary or gender non-conforming) in at least four out of eight key roles including writer, director, producer, lead, co-leads and department heads. Additional points were awarded to productions that hire women of color in key positions, and to those with overall gender parity in their crews.
Stamp designation is determined by ReFrame, an initiative of the Sundance Institute and Women in Film Los Angeles (WIF) in partnership with IMDBPro. ReFrame examined IMDbPro data on the 200 most popular narrative series with a minimum of three episodes released between June 1, 2021 and May 31, 2022 (the 2021-2022 Emmy eligibility window).
Each show was considered for the list based on its top-performing four weeks during the eligibility period on IMDbPro’s proprietary ranking of titles, with all unscripted content removed. (Note: IMDbPro rankings are based on the site’s pageviews worldwide.)Along with the list of Stamped series, ReFrame released their annual report about gender and hiring in scripted television, including, for the first time, a company report card indicating how much of each studio, streamer and network’s content has met the ReFrame Stamp standard.
