So AfterEllen posted their Top 50 Female TV characters list. I'll list the ones I've heard of: (though I don't necessarily watch all these shows)

50) Bianca Montgomery, All My Chidren
49) Sydney Bristow, Alias
48) Lisa Simpson, The Simpsons
47) Emily Prentiss, Criminal Minds
45) Sue Sylvester, Glee
44) River Song, Doctor Who
40) Effy Stonem, Skins
39) Temperance Brennan, Bones
38) Spencer Hastings, Pretty Little Liars
37) Spencer Carlin, South of Nowhere
36) Lorelai Gilmore, Gilmore Girls
35) Bo Dennis, Lost Girl
33) Olivia Dunham, Fringe
32) Gabrielle, Xena
29) Casey Novak, SVU
28) Cara Mason, Legend of the Seeker
27) Myka Bering, Warehouse 13
26) Helena G Wells, Warehouse 13
25) Kahlan Amnell, Legend of the Seeker
22) Leslie Knope, Parks and Recreation
20) Dana Scully, The X-files
19) Brittany S Pierce, Glee
18) Rachel Berry, Glee
17) Kate Beckett, Castle
16) Olivia Benson, SVU
15) Liz Lemon, 30 Rock
14) Veronica Mars, Veronica Mars
13) Quinn Fabray, Glee
12) Willow Rosenberg, Buffy the Vampire Slayer
11) Maura Isles, Rizzoli and Isles
9) Jane Rizzoli, Rizzoli and Isles
8) Naomi Campbell, Skins
7) Callie Torres, Grey's Anatomy
6) Emily Fields, Pretty Little Lairs
5) Buffy Summers, Buffy the Vampire Slayer
4) Emily Fitch, Skins
3) Xena, Xena
2) Arizona Robbins, Grey's Anatomy
1) Santana Lopez, Glee

Heh, I'm amused that Faberritana are all on the top 20. Because when I imagine Faberry, I also imagine Britanna along side them. No, not in that way! Well, I mean, that would also be hott, but I meant the two couples being close friends!

Anyways, I guess this is their "of all time" lists, since several of the mentioned characters are on shows that have been long since off the air? I'm not surprised Emily from PLL is in the top 10, nor Naomily from Skins, nor Callie and Arizona from Grey's. (Since I don't watch Grey's, what are Callie and Arizona's portmanteau?)

I didn't realize Rizzoli and Isles were so popular amongst the lesbian community. Or that of all apparently Casey was the favored L&O SVU DA? I figured people liked Alex better, that's why they brought her back? And while I think Buffy, Willow, Gaby and Xena's inclusion on this list were a given, I didn't realize Legend of the Seeker was a popular enough show to have both Kahlan and Cara both on here.

This was a poll, I hope? Because if not, it's moronic. (I mean, it's still moronic if it's a poll, but moronic in a way I expect it to be moronic)

It was from a poll of lesbians. Well, of people who follow afterellen.com, who are mostly lesbians, but I suppose there are probably non-lesbians who peruse the site.
