Leela makes me so happy

And I need fandom to know I'm holding it personally accountable for not telling me how awesome she is.

she's the best. I assume it's because there's no ship there combined with being pre-2005?

I don't have any analytical thoughts about Leela, she's too important to me. my media world was pretty barren of representation when i was a kiddo - there was Princess Leia and that was approximately it. Leela was a motherfucking action hero who routinely solved problems and rescued herself. (i don't know what i would think of the Tom Baker era if i was watching it for the first time now, but my local PBS station only had seasons 12-15 when i was little, and they played an episode at 7pm every weekday. when Leela decided to stay on Gallifrey, then it was time to start back up with Sarah Jane and Harry.)

GURL. I've been telling you to watch Four for like a decade.

eta: also fun fact she was named after the first woman to hijack an airplane, which I think explains a lot
