Badass/Live-Action TV: Difference between revisions

Line 37:

**** Are we forgetting that in the episode "Dalek" Nine made a ''dalek'' beg for mercy and responded by torturing him some more?

*** {{spoiler|Any person trained to be a warrior to defeat the Doctor}} would be ''made'' of [[Badass]]. So naturally, she is.

** And most recently, Canton Everet Delaware III. Practically the Whoinverse's answer to [[Dirty Harry]], he absolutely [[Why Don't You Just Shoot Him|Shot Him.]]

** How the heck didn't Rory Williams, The Last Centurion, get here yet!?

*** Everybody was too overawed at the sight of him taking down a stone Dalek with a blast from his [[Incredibly Lame Pun|handgun]], then infiltrating a Cyber Ship, staring down a Cyber Commander with a dismissive 'Oh, don't give me those blank looks', standing [[No Sell|stony-faced]] while he blew up a whole Cyber Fleet behind him ''for emphasis'', then leading a hopeless-seeming battle against Headless Monks and ''winning'' to remember to add him to the page.

Line 44:

*** Rory quietly withstanding [[Eldritch Abomination|HOUSE's]] [[Mind Rape|mind rape]] that nearly emotionally crippled Amy. Because, again, the whole 2000-years-old thing probably helps withstand mental torture.

** Really, most of the Doctor's companions achieve some level of badass [[Took a Level In Badass|after awhile with him]].

** The spinoff series, ''[[Torchwood]]'' is not lacking in badasses either. Every member of the team has done some hardcore stuff, though one of the most badass team members would be Owen Harper, a [[Combat Medic]] who literally [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu|fought Death itself and won!]]

* On ''[[Alias (TV)|Alias]]'', anyone whose last name is Bristow or Derevko.

** Also on ''[[Alias (TV)|Alias]]'', Anna Espinoza, Kelly Peyton, and Renee Rienne

Line 101:

** [[Star Trek]] should not be mentioned on this page without mentioning Captain James T. Kirk. The man was hardcore.

*** Likewise, [[Star Trek Deep Space Nine|Captain Benjamin Lafayette Sisko]] spent most of his series either punching [[Aliens and Monsters|aliens in the junk]], [[Stuff Blowing Up|flying around wrecking shit]], or calling BS on [[Sufficiently Advanced Alien|alien gods]].

*** He punched-out Q! He ''[[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu|punched-out]]'' ''[[Physical God|Q!]]''

*** He punched-out Q! He ''[[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?|punched-out]]'' ''[[Physical God|Q!]]''

*** Bah, forget Sisko and Worf. Kira Nerys kicked major ass. Even when she was extremely pregnant!

*** [[Star Trek Voyager|Janeway]] had her problems, but she had the balls to make an alliance with the Borg in order to fight an even more powerful enemy. Go watch Scorpian again.

Line 132:

* Carter Grayson of ''[[Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue]]''. People might complain about his lack of [[Character Development]], but this is the man who tried to run over the [[Monster of the Week]] with his jeep in the very first episode. How do you improve on that?

** What, no love for Tommy Oliver?

** What about Flynn and Dillon from [[Power Rangers RPM]]?, the latter drove through a nigh-impenetrable security system meant to keep the forces of the series equivalent to [[Terminator|Skynet]] at bay without a scratch to his car, the latter did the same in a bus [[Arson Murder and Jaywalking|(and]] [[Brave Scot|IS SCOTTISH!)]].

* Temperance Brennan of ''[[Bones]]'' is trained in several types of martial arts and she's not afraid to use them, usually doing so with total calm and a perfect deadpan. There's a reason she's usually not allowed a gun.

* John Reese, in ''[[Person of Interest]],'' made of equal parts [[Burn Notice|Michael Westen]] and [[Dirty Harry|Harry Callahan]].
