halfamoonWho are your favourite "guilty pleasure" female characters? The ones who aren't good examples of what can be done with female characters, but who you deeply love anyway?
Have you spent hours creating backstory for a female character whose sole purpose in canon is to provide eyecandy for fanboys? Do you feel wildly passionate about a woman from a badly written, sexist series? Is your OTC a woman who died in the first episode of a new series, before the opening credits even began to roll?

Date: 2008-02-13 01:33 am (UTC)I thought the writers did love Martha - after all, she becomes her own Big Damn Hero in a way Rose never did (except maybe in the first episode) - she walked the Earth for a year! Dude!
What I do think was made of fail was the unrequited love - not because the Doctor didn't love her back - but because they went there at all. Seriously - chance to tool around the galaxy and you're only going to go because you fancy the guy driving? That is utterly Made of Fail, which is why I loved Martha's "I'm too good to pine after you speech."
