THE THREE RED(ish)HEADS
At the turn of the century, Television had three prominent sidekicks, the Doctor, the Witch, and the Bard. All were diminutive
women with reddish hair.
Dana Scully, Willow Rosenberg, and Gabrielle had another similarity. Rosenberg was openly gay, Gabrielle wasn't not gay,
and Scully never dated anybody that we knew of.
All of them could be called bookish. All of them had at least one vampire related episode.
