Los Angeles film and TV production fell 19.7% to just 183 projects in 2023, according to an updated three-year analysis of scripted content by FilmLA released Wednesday.

The figure marks 45 fewer projects for the region than 2022 and only a fraction of the 990 total projects captured by all jurisdictions in 2023, leaving viewing audiences with 31 fewer TV shows, seven fewer TV movies, two fewer theatrical films and five fewer streaming movies that were made in Los Angeles.

Total releases for scripted productions were down 4.8% overall in 2023, and even more so for television (18.3%), offset by year-over-year increases in theatrical releases (up 24.4%)
