Hbo

HBO favored male, family members, male geniuses and you could argue Candace Bushnell was a woman in the G.S. The company today is Warner Brothers Discovery which is run by David Sazlev who notoriously does these like guys dinners out in the Hamptons. There really has been a huge shift towards female protagonists often investigating the misdeeds of terrible men. And it's really a shame because yeah it's crazy when you look back.
