Hm, I would bet Kate Austeen or Olivia Dunham. But I'm supporting Phoebe Buffay!
ReplyDeleteDana Scully, Kate Beckett, Olivia Dunham, Temperance Brennan, and Phoebe Buffay!!
ReplyDeleteKate Beckett - CastleLeslie Knope - Parks & Rec
ReplyDeleteOlivia Dunham - Fringe
Teresa Lisbon - The Mentalist
Nice, my nominee Leslie Knope made it in the competition ! She'll be crushed in the next rounds, but still.
ReplyDeleteSadly, Liz Lemon isn't here. Well, there are not many comedy women (Phoebe, Penny and Leslie).
It's funny that more people voted for Katherine than for Elena.
Sarah, Sidney, Buffy, Veronica, Nikita, Debra... lots of great ass-kicking leads here.
Olivia Dunham stands a decent chance at winning, obviously, and I have to say I'm not against it.
Well we all know the list of females who will ACTUALLY have a chance....but i'm going for TERESA LISBON THE MENTALIST!
ReplyDeleteSarah Walker - Chuck !!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteTeresa Lisbon, what was it that Jane said? "poocket-rocket, dynamite, heavily armed and cute as a button"
ReplyDeleteRachel Berry - Glee should win
ReplyDeleteI SAY OLIVIA DUNHAM!!!!
ReplyDeleteGLEE IS SOOOOOO OVER RATED AND PASSE!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the Stanatics will go crazy
ReplyDeleteWithout hesitation Olivia Dunham - Fringe and Sidney Bristow - Alias
ReplyDeleteKate Beckett - Castle best female character, love her and love the show
ReplyDeleteSad,Robin didn't make it.She,Buffy and Kath are the best female characters.But I also like Willow,Sarah,Pheobe,Caroline,Penny,Elena and Nikita.I don't like Sookie much,Jessica and Pam are much better TB characters.
ReplyDeleteAbby Sciuto and Fiona Glenanne. Woo hoo! Parker too! This list gets better the more I read it.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize both Katherine and Elena are in the race. I have mixed feelings about that. My guess is Olivia Dunham wins too but I hope Buffy stays in for the long haul too.
ReplyDeleteThis is gonna be a tough competition. So many of these ladies are awesome. I'm not even sure who I'm rooting for yet.
ReplyDeleteI'm in the second season of Castle right now and it's been a great surprise. I thought I would be hum drum about it but of all the shows I've watched this summer this one is the one I most look forward to seeing in the mailbox. It's funnier than I thought it would be. Alexis is the most awesome kid on TV and Beckett rocks all around. I'm not such a fan of Castle himself, but he's very slowly growing on me. In the end, the secondary characters much like in NCIS and White Collar, really make this series.
ReplyDeleteFor this is a fairly simple poll. Not many of the women listed will be remembered as all-time greats...
ReplyDeleteBuffy SummersVeronics Mars
Sidney Bristow
I was told about an online community for individual seeking baby boomer and
ReplyDeletesenior dating. It is --BoomerMingle.com--- All baby boomer singles and senior
singles there are seeking senior dating or relationships. Many serious and
verified members. Age is not a problem here, but a great merit to cherish!
Olivia Dunham and Nikita (=
ReplyDeleteSigh, it's so predictable. Dunham will win because Supernatural has no female leading actress LMAO. Fans are predictable.
ReplyDeleteI just wanna say Leslie Knope deserves it!
lol female and actress in the same sentence, i fail in life.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. Looking at this list, it kind of makes me sad in that I think there are a LOT more "classic" or "great" male characters out there. That being said, the three you named are excellent definitely great (especially Buffy).
ReplyDeleteIt's also nice to see some Game of Thrones love for Daenerys. It also shows how silly HBO was to submit Lena Heady as lead and Emilia Clarke as supporting. Honestly, they both should have been supporting, but Emilia Clarke has a much better claim to lead than Heady. Next year's noms will be interesting too. Will Peter Dinklage be lead male? Book 2 is largely about him. I'd also like to see some love for child actors Maisie Williams is SO GOOD.
Teresa Lisbon - The Mentalist
ReplyDeleteDana Scully has a chance at getting votes.
ReplyDeleteI think the frontrunners are probably Olivia Dunham, Buffy, Veronica Mars, or one of TVD characters/LOST characters. I'll be pulling for Olivia, Veronica, Alicia Florrick, and Buffy/Phoebe Buffay.
ReplyDeleteAgreed about Lena Headey as Lead Actress. I mean she may have had a bit more face time, but Emilia, or rather Daenerys had an entire story arc about her. She really should be the lead. Possibly both could have been nominated for lead roles in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteOhh :D
ReplyDeleteThese are the ones I'm cheering for:
Blair Waldorf
Buffy Summers!
Caroline Forbes
Katherine Pierce
Veronica Mars
Willow Rosenberg
My favorites: Olivia Dunham (Fringe) anda Kate Beckett (Castle)
ReplyDeleteOthers: Alicia Florrick (The Good Wife), Dana Scully (X Files), Debra Morgan (Dexter), Penny (TBBT), Temperance Brennan (Bones)

Apparently I have an affinity for blondes.
ReplyDeleteFiona Glenanne - Burn Notice!!!!
ReplyDeleteMary Shannon - In Plain Sight
Temperence Brennan - Bones
Kate Austen - LOST
Olivia - fringe for certainXDD
ReplyDeleteI think there are a lot of "classic" female characters out there but they did not get on this list. I can think of a Top 10 list with no one from the above list... That says something! Most of these would be in any critics Top 10 list and for sure in their Top 25 list....
ReplyDeleteMary Richards (Tyler Moore)Lucy Ricardo (Lucille Ball)Roseanne (Roseanne Barr)Xena (Lucy Lawless)Edith Bunker (Jean Stapleton)Peg Bundy (Katey Sgal)Jeannie (Barbara Eden)Murphy Brown (Candice Bergin)Carmela Soprano (Edie Falco)Elaine Bennis (Julia-Louis-Dreyfus)
Go Kate Beckett! Yeah, that's all I can say. I LOVE BECKETT <3

ReplyDeleteBonnie Bennett (tvd) and Zoe Wash and River Tam (Firefly) should be on here, but okay.
ReplyDeleteZiva David
Willow Rosenburg <3
I'll be happy if Abby, Ziva, Beckett or Lisbon win! :D also Daenerys! :) (i can't stand Sookie!!Why is she here!!! lol :P) but I think they won't make it... :/ probably Buffy? I don't know what to think, it's hard to guess!! :/
ReplyDeleteI voted for Xena! best female ever, in my opinion! but she didn't make it... :/
ReplyDeleteI think Buffy Summers and/or Sookie Stackhouse have good chances to win this competition. But i hope that Kate Beckett, Sarah Walker or Dana Scully will be the winners :)
ReplyDeleteI would be happy to vote for Glee if it was Santana... but voting Rachel Berry?? no! XD
ReplyDeletekate beckett and temperance brennan
ReplyDeleteOlivia Dunham or Temperence Brannan are most like contenders
ReplyDeleteCannot believe Sue Sylvester, Santana Lopez or Christina Yang did not make it!!!! MADNESS
ReplyDeleteI agree... she's right up there!
ReplyDeleteI think the top 5 I listed are all "top 10". Show anyone a photo of any of them and 50% of the people will know who they are. Not sure the same can be said for a lot in the actual contest....
Abby, Brennan and Ziva!!! I hope...
ReplyDeleteI'm cheering forBlair Waldorf - Gossip GirlLeslie Knope - Parks & Rec
ReplyDeleteSarah Walker - Chuck
Sookie Stackhouse - True Blood
Buffy, Scully, Kate Austen, Beckett, Olivia, Phoebe, Bones and Willow are my favorites.
ReplyDeleteAlicia Florrick - The Good Wife Kate Beckett - Castle Teresa Lisbon - The Mentalist Caroline Forbes - The Vampire Diaries
ReplyDeleteKate Austen, Olivia Dunham, Buffy and Veronica Mars.
ReplyDeleteI nominated Carmela Soprano, brought to life by the brilliant Edie Falco. I don't think many people on this site watched The Sopranos.
ReplyDeleteBuffy will win.
ReplyDeleteI'm not surprised that my nominee Carmela Soprano didn't make it, because The Sopranos is not well known on this site, but I'm happy my other nominee, Willow, did make it. I'm also happy Alicia Florrick is getting well-deserved respect.
But Buffy is classic, and judging from the comments on the nomination post, very well-liked on this site. She'll be the winner.
Olivia, Ziva, Brennan
ReplyDeleteOlivia Dunham FTW.
ReplyDeleteWasn't Olivia Dunham the female character who got the best placement of the female characters last year. Don't see any strong contenders to her amongst the other females, except maybe Daenerys due to the popularity of GoT. Doubt a female character will win, though. The male characters have this one I fear.
ReplyDeletethink buffy and beckett will have good runs and hopefully final
ReplyDeleteKate Beckett no doubt!!! I will be putting some support over to Phoebe Buffay though.
ReplyDeleteKate Beckett - Castle
ReplyDeleteAbby Sciuto - NCIS/ Elena Gilbert - The Vampire Diaries/ Nikita - Nikita/ Parker - Leverage/ Sidney Bristow - Alias/ Sookie Stackhouse - True Blood/ Temperence Brennan - Bones/ Ziva David - NCIS
ReplyDeleteMy favorites are: Olivia Dunham, Juliet Burke and Ziva David!
ReplyDeleteCarmela is a good character, I loved her in Sopranos. I just like others more :)
ReplyDeleteOlivia Dunham.
ReplyDeleteI hope Brennan, Beckett, Sarah and Fiona. But I think in the end Juliet Burke Kate Austen will win. LOST or SPN character always do
ReplyDeleteI think a lot characters have a chance here,but I would prefer to see Buffy or Abby Sciuto or Bones winning.

thanks! can't wait to start voting
ReplyDeleteAlthough I love Anna Torv's Olivia and Deschanel's Brennan, to me Sydney Bristow by Jennifer Garner is simply epic.
ReplyDeleteBlair Waldorf
ReplyDeleteHappy to see Olivia Dunham and Kate Beckett.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea who will win, but I can say the most LIKEABLE characters:
ReplyDeleteBlair Waldorf-SO relatable, best in GG
Willow Rosenberg-The lovable nerd, I actually liked her better than Buffy because Buffy always seemed depressed to me.
Temperance Brennan-I love her character how she doesn't have many social skills.
Leslie Knope-C'mon, do I have to explain this one?
Penny- She's so amazing, and Kaley Cuoco is amazing as her.
hmm....stepping gently into commenting waters
ReplyDeleteDaenerys Targaryen for the win. I can't believe there aren't more Game of Thrones women up there, like Cersei Lannister and Catelyn Stark.
ReplyDeleteI guess the show is still only just finished it's first season...but so has Nikita for that matter.
Others I would be happy with;
Caroline Forbes
Katherine Pierce
Buffy Summers (DUH)
Penny
and Veronica Mars
Olivia Dunham - Fringe
ReplyDeleteSydney Bristow - Alias
Veronica Mars - Veronica Mars
Sarah Walker - Chuck
Olivia Dunham, Buffy, Veronica Mars, Scully
ReplyDeleteTemperence Brennan - Bones
ReplyDeleteI thought Scully was a red-head?
ReplyDeleteCersei... So many mixed feelings on that character. lol
ReplyDeleteI think top contenders are Buffy Summers, Kate Beckett, Olivia Dunham and Sarah Walker. Favourites from very popular series around here. I would love for Alicia Florrick to be a top contender but unfortunately, I very much doubt she will be.
ReplyDeleteOlivia Dunham!!!
ReplyDeleteTERESA LISBON - THE MENTALIST
ReplyDeleteMARY SHANNON!!!!!! Girlfriend is one tough chick! Love her! =]
ReplyDeleteAlicia Florrick- The Good Wife
ReplyDeleteTemperance Brennan- Bones
Penny- The Big Bang Theory
Dana Scully- The X-Files
Debra Morgan- Dexter

ReplyDeletePenny-TBBT
