2010- Franchises aimed at Girls and Women


Happy New Year Everybody!

I don't know what all of you hope for in the new year, I know I'm looking forward to my second baby and consequently being able to eat sushi and drink again. But what about Entertainment Franchises aimed at girls and women? What possible gems and... "not gems" are in store for us all in 2010?

So here's a list of franchise extensions and potential franchise starters on major mass media platforms in 2010. The most exciting part of the whole chore of listing these is the certain knowledge that there are going to be a number of things that are going to pop seemingly out of nowhere to charm, delight and surprise.

In Feature Film:
(Before July 2010, thanks www.imdb.com for not looking at August yet)

Twilight: Eclipse
Salt
Sex and the City 2

On Prime Time Television:

Cougar Town

Ugly Betty

The Good Wife

90210

Gossip Girl

America’s Next Top Model

Life Unexpected

The Vampire Diaries

Nurse Jackie

My Life as Liz

The Real Housewives of New York

The United States of Tara

Fly Girls

The Secret Life of the American Teenager

Make it or Break It

Greek


In Video Games: (For Major Consoles and MMO, does not include casual games)

Hello Kitty Online

Let’s Play Flight Attendant (Nintendo DS)

Let’s Play Ballerina (wii/ds)



This list is nowhere near comprehensive, there HAS to be more out there, but it does represent what I can find out about online in one afternoon by searching major sites, which in and of itself says something. If I can't find more easily, people with less desire to can't either. Regardless, girls in 2010 should have plenty of time to create their own new work if these are the pickings being aimed at them.
