I adore all the female characters of Scrubs, because I adore all the characters in Scrubs. For a long time I wanted to hate Kelso for being an evil bastard (even if it's fictional, cheating pretty much always rubs me the wrong way, especially when the character acts like they deserve to cheat), but I can't even hate him!

I love the ladies of FFX (but I'm less-than-in-love with Paine, so not so much FFX-2 I guess) and probably would like the girls of FFXII very much if I ever picked the game back up. >.>

I LOVE ELPHABA AND GLINDA OF THE WICKED MUSICAL SO MUCH, YOU HAVE NO IDEA. I want to paint myself green for Elphaba, that's how much I love her. On the note of musicals, I love Hairspray's Tracy and Penny absolutely to pieces, and Mrs. Turnblad just as much (even if she's played by a man, she counts, right?), and I love Kate Monster and Christmas Eve from Avenue Q (I giggle every time I think of Christmas Eve shouting "GO GET JOB!" and There's a Fine, Fine Line is absolutely wonderful [and so is Fantasies Come True, but that's mostly because it's so heartbreaking — which is the same reason I like There's a Fine, Fine Line]).

In comics, I like the girls of the Runaways more than any other in comics, mostly because they're treated with respect. Like real respect, too. They're given personalities and not driven crazy (or bitchtastic) by their powers. Molly, Karolina, and Gert are the best; Nico is... well, all right, I don't suppose I love her, but she has awesome moments. I'm not yet used to Klara (given that I've read all of two issues with her in them?) and not yet completely convinced Xavin isn't struggling with gender identity, so I don't include them (though I do like Xavin... but probably only about as much as Nico, or maybe a little more).

I love Doctor Girlfriend of the Venture Brothers (and Triana, to a lesser extent, given her lesser involvement) so freaking much, I immediately developed a mini-crush on Doc Hammer (one of her creators and her voice actor). Of course, the fact that he proved to be insanely awesome and hilarious in real life helped. I only bought two poster-type items at NYCC, and one was an unofficial drawing of her.

Like you, I, too, love Toph, Ty Lee, and Katara of Avatar. In fact, one of the best things about Avatar for me was how much I adored the female characters.

And Gwen and Morgana! Especially Gwen. Her role may be comparatively small, but she's got something so sweet about her.

Harmony Faith Lane from Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. I mean, I am all about the Harry/Perry when it comes to fanfic, but in the movie Harmony was a perfectly awesome part of their little group. Sure, she is a little ridiculous at times, but they all are!

Olive Hoover from Little Miss Sunshine. Little girl, big win!

Juno, Bren, and even Vanessa from Juno are all different kinds of awesome. Juno is snarky awesome, Bren is motherly awesome, and Vanessa is... an entirely different sort of motherly awesome.

Hermione, Molly Weasley, and Luna Lovegood. Tonks and Ginny were a part of that for a while, before book six, and after book six I did like Fleur almost as much (almost).

Christopher Moore has made some female characters I like very much, in particular Jody the vampire, Abby Normal (for comedic purposes, mostly), and Molly Michon.
