When it comes to old cartoons, girl characters were often depicted on the sidelines. They were rarely the main characters, but they were often secretly the stars of the show, outshining male leads with their wits, personality, and charm. Here are some of the most iconic girl characters in popular cartoons who, over the years, have become cultural icons.

While she often takes a backseat in the show to Homer and her brother Bart, she gives some added value to the show.
