In modern TV shows, there seems to be a progressing abundance of strong female characters. Why shouldn't there be? Females are obviously the dominant sex! I find that these characters kickass attitudes can be inspiring and influential in any girls life! Therefore, I believe these characters deserve a little recognition.
1. Olivia Benson
Seventeen seasons in and still going strong. Olivia Benson started off as one of the detectives for the Special Victim Unit who worked her way up to the top as her current status of Lieutenant. Well, Liv has been and seen through it all kidnapped, assaulted and she also almost got killed a couple of times. She is a survivor! She’s America's favorite cop!
2. Sydney Bristow
Bristow is a hard core agent who thinks she works for the CIA, but she quickly learns she does not actually work for the CIA. She was hired by a worldwide criminal and espionage organization who made her think she worked for the CIA. Bristow turns into a double agent for the real CIA. I know it is crazy. She has saved the world numerous amount of times and still looking sexy while doing it.
3. Cristina Yang
Also known as a badass Cardio God. She served us a wonderful 10 seasons until her ex boyfriend who left her at the altar asked her to go run a hospital in Switzerland! We are all just grateful Shonda Rhimes, the creator of "Grey's Anatomy" kept her alive. Actually, there was that one time where she had to operate while a gun was held up to her head, oh, and that other time she survived that terrible plane crash. I think it was definitely about time she got out while she still could.
4. Buffy Summers
Buffy Summers, you know, is your average teenage girl who also happens to have the unique job of vampire slaying. Not to mention she died twice and still managed to have a sharp and perky personality! While dealing with normal teenager problems like juggling grades, a social life and boys, she still had time to save the world a countless number of times. You go, girl!
5. Debra Morgan
Deb is a hard-working cop for Miami - Metro in the homicide department, who eventually gets promoted to a detective's position (something she's wanted throughout her whole career!) and later lieutenant because of her tenacity and workaholic attitude. But achieving lieutenant was something she never saw coming. Debra tells it how it is, and she isn't scared of anybody! She's a badass cop with a potty mouth who solves murders in very cute heels. Not to mention, she's a sister to a extremely successful serial killer named Dexter.
