The Golden Girls: This show showed females of a certain age living full, meaningful lives that included friendships, romances and more than just being grandmothers.
Designing Women: This show explored women's issues in every way. It showed women of different socio-economic backgrounds, different sexual appitites and different mindsets working together and being friends.
ER: This show has done a superb job of showing female characters in all lights--from scrub nurses to doctors to patients this show has a heavy female cast and has always done right by them.
Kate & Allie: This show was groundbreaking and ahead of it's time. One of the first series to feature two divorcees as it's starring comedic characters. These two females were each other's best friends, confidantes and balanced each other out. It made a point of saying "we don't need men to be happy"
and i can't believe they forgot "MAUDE". perhaps the best women's show EVER.
