What We Want:We welcome proposals for an original and dynamic talk show concept driven by the presence of a strong, charismatic female presenter or presenters who will appeal to a female audience. The overtone of the series must be light and fun, but with enough heart to veer into the realm of more serious issues of interest to a female audience.
The show must have the scope to cover and celebrate all the different facets of being a woman. Aspire to keep the concept fresh and current so that it can grow into the “go to” show for women of all races. Think out of the box, interactive and innovative.
