After ten years of strong growth, the number of US dramas has declined. International productions benefit from this.


The boom in American series may be over.

Despite the arrival of a host of new online video platforms, including Disney + or Peacock, the NBCUniversal service, the number of new or renewed fictions fell in 2020. According to FX Networks research, Hollywood turned the year last 493 series, or 7% less than in 2019, the year in which 532 series were produced.

In 2009, the United States had some 210 series.

Ten years later, that number has skyrocketed by more than 150% to 532.
