I don’t think there’s been a sci-fi character that I’ve been rooting for more. Life has dealt her blow after blow (she’s been the vessel for much evil as well), yet she comes out as a courageous and loveable woman. We/I need more Defiance.
Found this old interview video with Stephanie Leonidas for Rough Magazine, around the time of Defiance season 2. She recently posted a photo from that shoot, which reminded me of it.
