Martha from Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf
Donna Noble from Doctor Who
Liz Lemon and Jenna Maroney from 30 Rock
Anya from Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Lucille Bluth from Arrested Development
Celia Hodes from Weeds
Tree Trunks, Marceline, and Princess Bubblegum from Adventure Time
Rarity from MLP:FiM
Other than those, I feel the need to mention that Azula from Avatar went from being a character I found fairly dull to being pretty great from "The Beach" onward (especially in the finale), and Mabel from Gravity falls is definitely shaping up to be a favorite.
EDIT: Damn, how could I forget FlCl, both Haruko and Mamimi.

1)Samus Aran (Metroid), who is both the greatest Strong Female Character [sup][sup]Cliched-Ass Trademark Gag[/sup][/sup] in gaming and extremely attractive.
2)Faye Valentine (Cowboy Bebop). Essentially the same deal as Samus: fanservice + ACTUAL CHARACTERIZATION = great character.
3)Fred Burkle (Angel). I know there's this perception that she's essentially just a walking checklist of "endearing" traits for the audience to go over before Whedon does his thing and kills her brutally, but I found her to be a complex and genuinely likeable character.
3a)Willow Rosenberg (Buffy the Vampire Slayer). Figured I'd put her with Fred, since they're from the same universe, I like them for many of the same reasons, and I usually want to give both of them platonic cuddles. Overall, I'd have to say I prefer Willow. While Fred gets her moments of badassery, they occasionally feel like an attempt to fill an arbitrary quota of awesome moments/character, rather than something that really fits with her character. Willow, on the other hand, is genuinely badass. I believe at one point in the comics she's explicitly stated to be the most powerful magical being in the universe.
3b)Ooh, and Faith. Badass, in-depth characterization, the whole works, and for this one I'm getting decidedly less platonic with the cuddles. She also gets bonus points for being one of the few people to not throw a ***** fit at Angel over the whole Twilight mess.
3I)You know what, let's just say every female in the Buffyverse except for Buffy herself. And Harmony. Harmony sucks.

This catch made this so, so hard. Why would you do this?
Uh... how many can I post?
Lets see: Feryis Nyan Nyan, Hisui, Gokou Ruri, Evangeline McDowell, Ochibana Ame, Holo, Kuroki Tomoko, Tenshi (from Angel Beats), Shiina Mayuri, Toshino Kyouko, Suigintou, and Aisaka Taiga.

I meant feminine in the sense that she is strong, but that doesn't mean she's all "grr, emotions are stupid". SHe even has her own romance arc.T0ad 0f Truth said:Feminine? You mean Mighty Man-jaw? I think she even had facial hair she was so mannish. I will agree with her being funny thoughthebobmaster said:
Oh my. I watched that video, and good God get that guy an alka seltzer, because he's full. Full of himself and full of shit.Trilligan said:
I went in expecting actual, valid criticisms of the series. Ones that actually made sense. Maybe even ones I have personally.
What I got instead was a long string of exaggerations, misdirections, and pointless bitching. (I really laughed at the "remain unbiased and object" bit at the start, which was followed by nothing but vitriolic disgust and insults" He seemed, throughout, to be reaching desperately for things to criticize. I'm not sure I found even a single valid point in the lot. And I actually tried to find one. (Loved the bit when he essentially said: Alyx Vance is an affable, likeable, believable, human character. And that makes her a bad character." lolwut. XD )
Still, I enjoyed the video. It was essentially fifteen minutes of hilarity. I practically lost it, laughing uncontrollably, when he actually emphasized the point of Half-Life having variety as if it were a bad thing. I haven't heard such modestly articulated bullshitting in quite some time.
Thank you for the link.
[edit]
Damn it. The forum ate my first post. The one with my personal list of favorite female leads.
Too tired and stressed at the moment to go through the process of finding all of the damn images and links I had showcasing my picks.
Sigh...*mumble grumble*
Sam Vimes from Discworld, Bolin from Legend of Korra, Zuko and Sokka from A:TLA, Alastair from Dragon Age Origins, Xander from Buffy, Joker from Mass Effect and Flynn Rider from Tangled (Best Disney Princess love interest) also Nathan Fillion for just about every character he plays.
From Resident Evil, Wesker and Leon. (special mention to Chris!)
Edgar, Vincent, Zell, Zidane, Auron and Sazh from the Final Fantasy franchise. Can't be bothered finding all their pictures, but you get the idea >_>
Professor X, from the movie and comics.
Also any character Patrick Stewart plays because he's awesome.
Wallace wells (comic book and the fantastic movie adaptation).
Hareton Earnshaw from Wuthering Heights. I know he was a bit of a dick and a 'Tim nice but dim' character sometimes, but right near the end I couldn't help but love him because he was so sweet.
(insert picture of one of the various actors who played him)
Daryl Dixon from The Walking Dead.

Special mention to Rick and Glenn!

Caroline or better known as GlaDOS from Portal (2).
She (we agree on that, don't we?) is the most malevolent intelligent, sarcastic, snarky chick ever. I also love how she is trying to understand how the human psyche works, and in some degrees she gets it right.
Somehow that attracts me with the combination of her admitting she is going to do evil things.

I... I don't know. I haven't watched anything with strong female roles lateley.
I mean, I watched Star Trek, the Prisoner, Red Dwarf, Family Guy, and the Fesh Prince of Bel-Air lateley, and they either have very weak, 2-dimensional female characters, or none at all.
The last film I watched was Rocky, and Adrian is not a person I admire.
This is a tough one. What about the last book I read? The Dreams in Witch-House and Other Tales of Horror by H.P. Lovecraft. Yeah no help there, either.
Ooh, I remember one! Bliss from the Foundation series by Asimov! She is very strange and exotic, part of a hivemindy thing, and a beautifull young woman who fell in love with a dusty old historian. What's not to like?
