This is the last elimination round before I reveal the final bracket. It’s sooooo good. It’s lady-yogurt-commercials-start-featuring-zombies good. There are some first round match-ups that might make me lose sleep, they’re going to be so close. Click on through to choose your favorite ladies to fill up the last corner.
No tie-breaker needed today! Jump right in to the poll.

I missed it! Nooooooooo!
You can still vote in the brackets! All the polls this week will be open until Friday.
Oh I will!
I just saw my beloved Jackie Harris didn’t make the cut. By missing this round I may have failed her.
I haz sads.
None of my replies are going through today, I think I’m the server curse.
Anyway! Jackie was really close, she came in 18th. This probably doesn’t make you feel better.
Here, have some birthday cake!
OMG there are so many good ones here. Aaghhh I can’t choooosee. I had to cut Daria. She’s a little too high school me and not enough aspirational me. I replaced her with Rhoda because I have fond memories of watching Rhoda reruns with my mom. Uuugh this is so hard. Do I choose the groundbreakers like Lucy or Murphy Brown, or the face of women today like Leslie Knope and Liz Lemon. This may be more painful to me than MMM.
I had like twelve picked and had to pare down from there. Do I go with the characters from more obscure shows that I nominated but probably won’t make it to the top eight because they’re not well-known enough? Do I go with the ladies I was raised on? IT IS SO HARD TO DECIIIIIIIDE.
I had to let go of Liz Lemon and Annie from community which about made me want to cry. But Liz, bless her, is just not a badass. And Annie, compared to the other women on the show, isn’t badass enough to get my leading lady vote. But it was hard. SO HARD. Especially Annie, who I secretly (or not so secretly anymore, I guess…) want to run away and elope with so we can live happily and crazily ever after.
