Mara Brock Akil and Shonda Rhimes are the only two black women producing multiple shows on the air for 2007-08 season.
These two black women are the respective creators and executive producers of two hit primetime television series, and their spin-offs. With 'Girlfriends' and its spawn 'The Game,' Brock-Akil, a former journalism student, has the black sitcom industry on lock with her engaging storylines revolving around successful blacks and their sometimes awkward relationship dynamics. With the ABC ratings draw 'Grey's Anatomy' and its follow-up 'Private Practice,' audiences have proven insatiable when it comes to Rhimes' take on the medical profession.
