Heather Locklear is among the all-time, top 10 kickass babes of TV From E!Online:

Zap! Pow! Oof!
The All-Time
Bad-to-the-Bone
Babes of the Small Screen

by Daniel Frankel

Like the toughest kid in school or the paroled felon at the end of the bar, we don't want any trouble from TV's all-time baddest babes. Still, we're curious. And we can't keep our eyes off them as they fight crime, the supernatural--and one another!

How can legs so long and smooth kick so high? How do such pretty hands make such hard fists? And talk about accessorizing! Who knew bracelets could stop bullets?

But TV's toughest chicks aren't just about beauty and brawn. The ones you really need to watch out for have big brains beneath that big hair. So, don't get smart and try any funny stuff. Click through, but keep your grubby little paws on your mouse and keyboard.

And no whistles or catcalls, either. If you do, we're telling you right now we won't be responsible for lost teeth and broken noses.

Characters: Amanda Woodward, Officer Stacy Sheridan

In which role did Locklear kick more ass? Was it as an intimidating advertising exec/landlord in the Aaron Spelling nighttime soap Melrose Place? Or was it in her breakthrough role, helping puffy-toupeed, middle-aged LAPD crime-fighter William Shatner cling to the hoods of speeding cars in T.J. Hooker?

We couldn't decide, either. On the one hand, you have Officer Sheridan, fresh out of the academy, helping bring down international narcotics syndicates.

On the other, you've got Amanda--the battle-tested, office-politics monster capable of stiff-arming even the most ruthless suitors as she renders lovesick every heterosexual male who moves into her West Hollywood apartment complex.

Special props go to Locklear herself for making powerful Spelling credit her as a "special guest star" even after all these years.
