2007-2008 Best Female Character

Best Female Character
Ellie Bartowski (Chuck): first nomination
~Chuck was a show about spies and all that, but Chuck also had his sister that he cared so greatly for. Ellie was adorable, and loved his brother when not many people cared for him. While not only a beautiful actress and talented, she also is the stabilizing force for an otherwise crazy show.
Rita Bennit (Dexter): first nomination
~the quiet girlfriend of Dexter Morgan shined in the first season, and continued to do so in the second. The way she has recovered after having two children with Paul and handled what she believed to be Dexter's big secret helped her grow a little bit. It'll be interesting what the third season will have in store for her and her relationship with Dexter.
Casey Cartright (Greek): first nomination
~Who would have thought a little known ABC Family channel drama would actually earn a nominee. However, Casey as the lead actress has done a great job as a fickle college student who is witty and interesting. For a first season on a no name channel, Greek was actually pretty good, and more of Casey in the fall is definitely a good thing.
Sun Paik Kwon (Lost): second nomination
~Out of ALL of the acting nominees this year, Sun is the only person to have ever been nominated in the past, and she did that three years ago in the first season of Lost. It's a rarity to not have repeat nominees, but not in this year. Sun shined at the end of the Lost season in both the emotional island present, and even more so in the flashforwards. Sun has clearly been hardened and become a much better character because of it. Where she goes because of Jin's "death" is something we will have to wait and see.
Blair Woldorf (Gossip Girl): first nomination
~If you have noticed, alot of the acting nominees have been in pairs. Dexter and Rita, Casey and Ellie, etc. Blair is every bit the pair to Chuck Bass. She can be conniving and do anything to get her way. If you betray her, she will pay you back as painfully as possible. However, she also can be loyal to her friends (if it suits her) and help them out of their jams. Blair is not a good person, but she isn't a bad person either, and is completely deserving of this nomination.
