Fewer women working in prime-time programs
The number of women working as writers and directors on prime-time broadcast programs took a big tumble in the 2010-11 season, a new study reports.
TELEVISION
Women comprised 15 percent of writers on the prime-time dramas, comedies and reality shows on ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox and the CW, down from 29 percent in the 2009-10 season, according to the report from the Center for the Study of Women in Television and Film at San Diego State University. In the directing ranks, it found, 11 percent were women, compared with 16 percent the previous year.
Overall, the center said, women accounted for 41 percent of all on-air characters, down from the record-high 43 percent the year before, and comprised 25 percent of the people working as series creators, producers, executive producers, directors, writers, editors and directors of photography, a decrease of two percentage points.
The study, which the center has been doing since the 1995-96 season, is based on surveying one randomly selected episode from each network series during the season. "Statistically speaking, the randomization of the choice of episodes, across many series, should yield an accurate picture of the network of network shows because biases or idiosyncrasies are minimized," said Martha Lauzen, executive director of the center.

Ridley Scott to direct 'Blade Runner' sequel
Ridley Scott will direct a follow-up to his 1982 cult-classic "Blade Runner," producers on the new film said Thursday.
The untitled movie is not considered a remake but will take the form of either a sequel or a prequel to the science-fiction original, said Alcon Entertainment, the Hollywood company that had previously acquired rights to the first movie as well as the Phillip K. Dick novel on which it was loosely based. A screenwriter is expected to be hired shortly, and the aim is to enter production in 2013. Alcon said.
The original "Blade Runner," which underperformed at the box office but found an audience on home video and television, starred Harrison Ford as Rick Deckard, a police officer in a dystopian Los Angeles hunting for illegal "replicants," robots who are barely distinguishable from humans. Ford is not expected to be involved in the new version.
Alcon principals said that they expected Scott to make a movie that
Scott recently completed "Prometheus," a follow-up to another one of his early classics; that movie, a new take on the 1979 hit "Alien," will come out in June.
stood apart from the original. "Everything Ridley does as a filmmaker is fresh," said partner Andrew Kosove. "I believe he sees an opportunity to create something that's wholly original from the first 'Blade Runner.'"
