{{color|green| '''Green eyes'''}} are striking and sexy, especially when paired with [[Fiery Redhead|red hair]].<ref>Individually, they're the rarest natural eye and hair colors -- but are [[Significant Green-Eyed Redhead|more often seen together]] in fiction than [[Real Life]]</ref> Such a character is usually female, which is [[Truth in Television]] as most people with green eyes in [[Real Life]] are women. It also signifies a spitfire or an untrustworthy individual, particularly if he or she is also an [[Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette]].

* Klaus von dem Eberbach of ''[[From Eroica with Love]]'' has green eyes. Dorian Red Gloria compares them to Mosel wine bottles, which are green.
* Ginko from ''[[Mushishi]]'' has almost disturbingly vivid green eyes, especially in a world that doesn't make use of [[Mukokuseki]]. It's the first sign, [[White-Haired Pretty Boy|apart from his hair]], that he's not quite normal.

* Alex Krycek from ''[[The X-Files]]'' has green eyes. Fanficcers are fond of pointing this out. He's also a [[Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette]], thus fulfilling the "untrustworthy" requirement.
* [[The Lab Rat|Abby]] [[Perky Goth|Sciuto]] from ''[[NCIS]]'' has green eyes. Tony DiNozzo and Tim McGee also have green eyes, as did Director Sheppard. In fact, ''NCIS'' has a rather remarkable concentration of them.
* Stella Bonasera from ''[[CSI: NY]]'' has green eyes that are sometimes mistaken for [[Blue Eyes]].
* In the new series of ''[[Doctor Who]]'', the main cast of the Eleventh Doctor, Amy Pond and Rory Williams all have green eyes.

* DS Barbara Havers of ''[[The Inspector Lynley Mysteries]]'' has a lovely and expressive pair of sage green eyes. Yes, she is a spitfire, and yes, she is a [[Fiery Redhead|redhead]].
* In [[Battlestar Galactica (1978 TV series)|the classic ''[[Battlestar Galactica Classic]]'']], Apollo is the only character in the main cast to have green eyes.
