The USC Annenberg Inclusion Initiative on Thursday unveiled its latest The Inclusion List, a data-driven ranking system that looks to identify the most inclusive TV series across broadcast, cable and streaming in front and behind the camera.
The list, a collaboration of the Inclusion Initiative and the Adobe Foundation, used data on personnel from the 2021-2022 broadcast season and streaming series from 2021-2023. More than 560 series were scored, looking at 4,500 series regular roles and more than 11,000 crew members across more than 110,000 behind-the-scenes positions were evaluated.
Leading the Top 100 lists were the recently ended Queen Sugar from OWN, HBO’s The Baby and the CW’s All American: Homecoming on the broadcast and cable side, and Raising Dion (Netflix), Gentefied (Netflix), The Garcias (Max), The Last Days of Ptolemy Gray (AppleTV+), Reasonable Doubt (Hulu), Now and Then (Apple TV+), Rap Sh!t (Max), With Love (Amazon Prime), First Kill (Netflix), and Swarm...

Hispanic and Latino performers and filmmakers continue to be underrepresented in top movies. That was the key finding from a new report from the USC Annenberg Inclusion Initiative covering top films from 2007 to 2022. The latest study, tracing Hollywood’s efforts (or lack thereof) in terms of onscreen and offscreen inclusivity examined Hispanic and Latino representation.
This study, again led by founder Dr. Stacey L. Smith, is the third specifically detailing Hispanic and Latino representation in film. The investigation examined 1,600 top-grossing films from 2007 to 2022 and more than 62,000 speaking characters. The study also dealt with behind-the-camera representation, assessing more than 13,000 directors, producers and casting directors. Finally, the study offered a qualitative examination of Hispanic/Latino portrayals across the top films of 2022.
To the surprise of no one paying attention, the results were not encouraging.
Only 10 lead or co-lead roles (8.5%) across the top 100 earning movies of 2022 went to Hispanic/Latino actors. Eight of them went to women.
