cidercupcakes's Home Team: The 2009 Matches. Like, now. Each awesome female character nominated has their own thread, and people vote by commenting agreement. There are characters from everywhere -- TV, film, comics, and literature.
The post is kind of cool. It could just be a dry nom post, but instead has turned into a pithy lovefest. No one's doing any epic pimping, but each nomination generally has a short, to-the-point reason to vote for the character, which makes it fun to read through even if you don't feel like voting. Everyone is being very positive, nominating and replying to threads with enthusiasm about awesome women.
It's a lovely sight. Warms the cockles of my heart, it does. :D
I nominated: Dana Whitaker (Sports Night), Natalie Hurley (Sports Night), and Lacey Thornfield (Middleman). I couldn't believe no one had put any Sports Night women on the list yet. They could use some votes!
And there are still more women who could stand to be nominated! I may get around to doing the following later, but feel free to beat me to it. :) In no particular order:
Miss Parker (The Pretender)
Frannie Vecchio (Due South)
Dory (Finding Nemo)
Joan Girardi (Joan of Arcadia)
