Grace and Frankie
When their husbands announce they’re in love with each other, two very different women — uptight Grace (Jane Fonda) and free-spirited Frankie (Lily Tomlin) — are forced to reinvent themselves and become best friends. Seven seasons of wisdom, humor, and fierce celebration of older women’s full humanity including sexuality and business.

And Just Like That…

Wentworth
Set in a women’s prison, this gripping drama features complex female characters across all ages — including older women who are ruthless, strategic, vulnerable, and fully realized. One of the most female-centric dramas in Australian television history.

The Split
Three generations of women work as divorce lawyers in London — navigating their own marriages, family secrets, and competing loyalties. Over three acclaimed series, Abi Morgan digs deeper into divorce, infidelity, identity, and the impossible choices facing women who want everything — career, family, and passion. One of British television’s most sophisticated explorations of modern womanhood.

The Pursuit of Love
Based on Nancy Mitford’s beloved novel, two best friends navigate love, war, and society between the wars.
