I'm gonna echo what threemonkeys said about grannys.
Global Frequency (If you can get hold of it) has a mostly female cast and Miranda Zero in particular is a GREAT female lead. Aleph is cool too. Pity they only ever made the pilot.
Legend of the Seeker isn't too bad. It's not perfect either, but I think some of that is the source material.
As for movies: Amelie - It's french, with a wonderfully twisted plot and a lovely and strong lead character. What's NOT to love? Hoodwinked - it's not only got two kickass female leads, but it also explores identity in culture for female characters in an amusing (And challenging) way. Ghost in the Shell - Now THERE is a strong female lead. MirrorMask - What else would you expect from Gaiman?
