strong female leads | Fall TV lineup

A few years ago when I was looking for Netflix to recommend movies and TV shows for me, Netflix told me that I liked “strong female leads.”  Why yes, Netflix!  You are so smart!  I DO like shows with strong female leads!  One of my favorite shows was Alias partially because Jennifer Garner kicks ass!...
