26 Iconic TV Shows Created by Kickass Women

After writing movies like Crossroads and The Princess Diaries, Shonda Rhimes revolutionized TV with a little show called Grey's Anatomy. The series is one of primetime's hugest shows — even after 13 seasons — and has racked up Emmys for Katherine Heigl and Loretta Devine, not to mention its best TV drama Golden Globe. Yes, it's soapy and romantic, but so much of the show is about women pursuing their careers as physicians. The show also spawned another female-led spinoff, Private Practice.
