Mad Men has an array of female characters, both weak and strong. Peggy Olsen is one of the heroes of the show.

I just finished reading "11.22.63", the time-travel novel by Stephen King, and I seem to remember him mentioning Atlas Shrugged. Since I didn't know there was gonna be a quiz about it, I didn't mark it, and now I can't find it :-(

Best show on TV right now. It's basically all about objectivism.

Cooper: "Have you read her? Rand. Atlas Shrugged. That's the one."

I'll start. I love this one from the show Party Down:
"Ayn Rand wrote about how awesome awesome people are."
