Topic: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

I decided for my next poll to combine some of my favourite things - TV, polls and babes who kick butt!

I haven't even decided who I'm going to choose yet...

So who is your favourite?

Teyla is there for a comic effect only, right? big_smile

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

Since our own Karenbear wasn't in the list, we'll have to go for Buffy.  smile

It has to be the buffster... even though River is technically more powerful in the whedonverse.

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

I always so Carter as more of a brain.  And why the hell is Telya wimpy?  She kicks ass I tell you.  When she isn't pregnant at least.

Bahuh?  Since when is River more powerful than Buffy?  Buffy has a supernatural strength, River just has mad skillz.  I think Buffy would win in that fight.

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

She also sings.

Define ass kicking btw, first thing that pops into mind is Veronica Mars smile

ps: the singing was about tayla, but you post too fast kbear tongue

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

Buffy big_smile but I actually think Faith (was that her name? the other hot slayer) was a better ass-kicker.

Well, attitude has a lot to do with it, but I was thinking in the physical sense as well.  VM would be right up there in a battle of the smart-ass babes though. wink

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

Claudia Black all the way. I mean SMG (Buffy) is not even in the race, its like comparing apple to a fruit noonce´s  even heard of.  Yeah she battle with monsters, sure. But to battle with an advanced alien race like the peacekeepers. Aeryn is really the number one. Number two is either
Teyla (Atlantis) or like Xev from Lexx.

But it depends on the setting. Short distance Xev would take them all because of the lizard thing. Long distance Aeryn she knows how to handle a gun well. Or Supergirl/Ursa they would win. Supergirl would win everything if they were on earth or some other planet with a yellow sun. And yellow suns are common.

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

starbuck.

she's not hot in an uber-boob-candy-wuss-teyla-way, but I admire the char she portraits. She's kind of the Vasquez from Aliens I always wanted for xmass, but revamped and a little bit nerfed. And, as a bonus, she has her hot moments as well.

Buffy has supernatural strength indeed; River on the other hand can kill you with her brain : doesn't look like a fair fight to me... Also as has been proven many times in BTVS, Buffy extensively relies on the scooby gang to get the upper hand. In Serenity, River dispenses with the reavers alone and in a matter of seconds. Also, she's a mind reader which kind of comes in handy when involved in serious ass kicking action.

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

Ah, but Buffy can slay someone with a one-liner alone!  River just spouts a load of nonsense.  tongue

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

I'll have to go for Sydney. Not only is she able to kick the ass of anyone, she can do it in a different outfit each night. Wow. THAT is a real ass-kicking babe!

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

I gotta say though, for all the various outfits she wore throughout the five seasons, my favourite is still the iconic one from the first episode with the red hair.  Classic!

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

Oh its all about River!! Buffy wouldn't stand a chance, what with Rivers mind reading thing she has going on!

Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone, and do not be troubled about the future, for it has yet to come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

Oh yeah!!! How could I have forgotten ILLYRIA??


Can I change my vote to her??

22

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

I did consider including Illyria, and while she is awesome, I had to disqualify her on the account that she killed Fred, and I can never forgive her for that!  tongue

23

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

How about X5-452 from Dark Angel or Cameron Phillips from Sarah Connor Chronicles? We could stay here all day adding new ones. For me it is a three way tie between Aeryn, Buffy and River

24

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

I couldn't stand Dark Angel, so I must admit I just ignored it completely, and since I included River from Firefly I decided not to include Cameron in case it split the Summer Glau fan vote.  wink

Re: Favourite ass-kicking TV babes

Well, congrats to all the Buffy fans out there - your girl easily won our second poll with 19.6% of the 1575 votes.

Commiserations to all the Teyla fans who lost with a measly 3.4%.

My personal favourite - Aeryn Sun from Farscape, came in 7th with a rather disappointing 7.4%

And let me just say a big ol' shame on you to everyone who thought they all threw like girls.  15.7% ???  Sheesh!
