"Seven game-changing female-run shows premiered from 2013 to 2015: Orange Is the New Black, Broad City, Transparent, The Affair, Jane the Virgin, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend," says Eliana Dockterman. "Each boasted a specific voice. Each changed the way audiences perceived women. And each will air its final episode in 2019." She adds: "These shows ignited a conversation about what women could and couldn’t do onscreen, but they also marked a new era behind the camera: the rise of the female showrunner. Their saturation of popular culture convinced streaming services starting to generate their own original content that female television writers, once considered 'risky,' might be worthwhile hires."
