Day Five: Favourite female character on a male-driven show
Stargate SG-1 counts as male-driven, IMHO, even after Vala joins in S9. So yes, Colonel Doctor Samantha Carter, whom I fell in love with at first sight, then later hated (unfairly) for the Jack/Sam UST that dragged on foreeeever, and then grew to love EVEN MORE when she rejoined the team as part of SG-1 v2.0. I also loved her as commander of Atlantis--Season 4 is my favourite season of SGA. (On a shallow note, Tapping's 40s have been good to her.) Sam is awesome, plain and simple. She's a soldier, a scientist, a friend, and a leader. Her heart's as big as her brains. I love her journey from gung-ho young captain, coming on strong so the big boys will accept her as an equal, to seasoned colonel who has the trust and respect of her subordinates and who is finally accorded the position that is her due: captaincy of a spaceship.
