Day One: Female Character Meme
Mar. 7th, 2011 12:19 pmI decided to do this meme because it's awesome, obviously, and because I need to motivate myself to post more often.
Day One: Favorite female character: Veronica Mars

This was a no-brainer for me. Veronica is pretty much as close to my ideal of a female protagonist as you can get. She's smart and resourceful, kickass (in a way that doesn't involve literal kicking of asses), fiercely loyal and sharply sarcastic to...everyone. Yet at the same time, she's wonderfully flawed. Her determination occasionally goes to obsessive extremes, her ethics can be...flexible, at best, and like any teenager, she's at times self-absorbed. It's those very imperfections that make her all the more compelling.
It's true that later seasons never matched up to the genius of season 1, and I was over Veronica/Logan before it even happened, but I kept rooting for Veronica until the very end. I loved her relationships with Lilly, Wallace and Keith, the way she crushed for enemies and the undeniable truth that Veronica Mars is, in fact, smarter than you.
