As their study states, the BIPOC group is not proportionately represented to their share of the U.S. population, even though audience interest in programming with talent that represents the nation’s diversity, continues to increase.

When BIPOC narratives are controlled by non-BIPOC creatives, character story lines may lack authenticity, or may feature writing dependent on stereotypes, or characters depicted as “culture-less.” Therefore, a key question never to stop asking is whether the nation’s so-called “racial reckoning” will have any real impact on the industry’s hiring practices in a way that will be apparent in 2022’s television diversity reports. At the moment, the outlook remains foggy. One thing that’s clear is that reality TV reigns, and, based on each network’s 2022 schedule, it’s a trend that will not only continue, but accelerate. Here is IndieWire’s look at scripted series created and/or overseen by BIPOC creatives for major platforms, scheduled for the 2022/2023 television season. The list will be updated as networks (especially the streamers) solidify their lineups and make midseason announcements. Although, it remains unclear what exactly the traditional television calendar will look like next year and beyond, with disruptors like Netflix premiering new series practically every week throughout the year, and new streamers solidifying their standing. Throughout the year, there have been numerous new series announcements, pilot pickups, and series orders, but most have yet to be dated, and are therefore excluded from the below list, which will be updated periodically, as firm dates are set.
