Women in TV

Wednesday, August 19th, 2009

Maybe it’s just the shows I watch or the books I read, but I find one strange similarity between them all… there is rarely, if ever, a woman as the ultimate lead character.  In fact, off the top of my head, I can only name Star Trek: Voyager and Sanctuary as shows I’ve watched with a female lead.  But I’ve got a notoriously bad memory, so let’s make a list (in a rough order of air time from the 2008-2009 season).

And, yes, Defying Gravity is most certainly lives up to its pitch.  In the first two episodes we’ve got sex in zero g, sex normal g and sex with oneself.  (Assuming that Steve found the porn.  Whether or not it was zero g remains to be seen.)  Hilarious shit, really.
