Carrie Mathison, Homeland
Carrie's a brilliant, driven force of nature who never lets her own personal demons stand in the way of her endgame. "Complex" doesn't do her justice.

Abby Sciuto, NCIS
The quirky, tattooed goth girl of the NCIS crime lab is an enigma wrapped in a puzzle wrapped in black eyeliner and a studded choker. Her quick wit is matched only by her caffeine-infused energy, making her the Naval Yard's not-so-hidden weapon.

Buffy Summers, Buffy the Vampire Slayer
A true trailblazer for empowered TV heroines, Buffy Summers remains the baddest of the badasses, a snarky spitfire who's best been described as "one hell of a woman" by one of her vampiric best buds.
