neadods 's post about someone who didn't like female characters, so several people started listing their own. Might as well chime in on that, right? Although I should be going to bed, so I may forget some characters, go short on the comments or completely forget a fandom. Or define fandom really loosely. No particular order, btw.
Buffy. Any woman/girl on Buffy, really, at least among the major characters. They were all interesting, strong, changed as their experiences changed, and never stopped being themselves.
Zoe Washbourne, Firefly: The consummate soldier. And she loves nerds.
Laura Roslin, BSG. Some people rise to their level of incompetence, some people rise to the occasion. Holy hannah, but Roslin rose to the occasion. What would have happened to the survivors without her? Guaranteed, there wouldn't be any.
CJ Cregg, West Wing. I named my dog CJ. Does that give you a clue? 'cause if it doesn't, she'll ram that motherboard up your...never mind.
Doctor Who. Pretty much all the regulars in the current version. Donna is awesome, Martha left on her own terms, etc.
Lily Rush, Cold Case. By all rights, she should be a wreck. Instead, she's a first rate cop.
Mary Shannon, In Plain Sight. She is a wreck. But she's still the best at her job and men live in fear of her :)
Abby Sciuto, NCIS. A true free spirit, but also a warm-hearted genius and the best at what she does.
Ziva David, NCIS. Kicks ass, rarely bothers to take a name.
Fiona, Burn Notice. See Ziva, add explosives.
Sarah Conner, T:SCC. See Ziva & Fiona, add protecting her young.
Patty Hewes, Damages. Could write a book on her...
Angela Montenegro, Bones. Never met a punch she couldn't roll with. Wins title of 'most easy-going without being a doormat'.
Charlotte 'Chuck' Charles, Pushing Daisies. Taking the whole 'dead' thing very well. Taking charge of it, in fact.
Now I must sleep...
