Looking for TVTV shows about and/or for women
Posted December 5, 2020 by Radical_beans [speaking as mod] in Television

There have been a few threads on this topic, so we've put together a central thread.

Make suggestions here for TV shows or documentaries that centre women: women as main characters, women's stories/experiences, women's history docs etc. Or just shows that don't have men as the central focal point. If you can note the genre too that would also help.
