8 Netflix Shows With Fierce Female Characters
Elle

I don’t know about you, but I love to watch shows that make me think "Sh*t, I want to her that girl when I grow up." Whether it’s being a bada** lawyer, trying to bounce back from a divorce or just kicking life’s butt even in hard times — these leading ladies are always killin’ the game.

1. How to Get Away with Murder

Let’s face it Viola Davis is a fabulous actress and you just have to Annalise Keating even when she pisses you off.

2. Scandal

Olivia Pope's crisis management firm, Olivia Pope and Associates may or may not have committed a crime here and there, but Olivia’s connections are goals.

3. Weeds

For 8 seasons, Nancy Botwin finesses her way through her sh*t show of a life.

4. Quantico

Alex Parrish making her way through boot camp as a promising FBI recruit.

5. Love

I haven’t seen the second season of this Netflix Orginal because I’m a fake fan, but you’ll love this show from the first episode. You’ll also hate it because you’ll think about why the heckie can’t people just be happy in a relationship together.

6. Revenge

This is one of my all-time favorite shows — Emily Thorne and Victoria Grayson aren’t really gals I’d like to mess with.

7. Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce

After Abby McCarthy’s separation from her husband, the self-help author writes about people with family issues while juggling her own struggles and family life.

8. Girlboss

You’ll love this Netflix Orginal based on the creation of the fashion empire Nasty Gal, inspired by Sophia Amoruso's best-selling book.

If you’re going to watch Netflix all summer, why not watch shows with fierce female leads?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
