As temperatures warm and spring approaches, it’s becoming abundantly clear that women are finding more fertile ground to blossom on television and streaming services.
Female leads are blooming in new series in March, April and May, with more women taking major roles behind the camera, too.
For example: National Geographic Channel’s “Genius” series, which has drawn acclaim for its “Einstein” and “Picasso” dramas, introduces its first female subject, Aretha Franklin, in March.
