It's a nice change to watch a show that's focused on the friendship between two women.
Because Stargate, Stargate Atlantis, Sanctuary, Fringe, Merlin, H50, NCIS, and Castle all have their enjoyable points, but they tend to fail quite miserably on the female friendship front - as do their fandoms.
And, you know, I like females, and female characters, and female characters being strong and capable and intelligent and funny, and more than one female character being strong and capable and intelligent and funny in the same show at the same time.
But I'm not a huge femslasher. I just want more female characters in my shows, interacting with each other, and being awesome.

However, I tend to find women on t.v. terrible. Then, I don't much like women in real life either. Especially not the married ones. Something happens and they just become bitches. I don't blame writers for portraying them the way they usually do. I will give Olivia props though, and Ziva. They're two women I actually respect on television.

The show is still a little too white for me, but I can forgive that in the face of two strong, tough, smart women who go so well together. It's so refreshing.
(I'm not much of a femslasher, either, but, geez, could I see it here.)
