14. Pauley Perrette
Pauley Perrette played the fan favorite, Abby Sciuto, the loveliest forensic scientist ever, but certainly for NCIS. Her character was adored for her brains, her gothic style, and all the nuances of her character – she quit the show after 15 years. It is easy to see why she was ideal for the role, having been an undergrad honor student in sociology, psychology, and criminal science – her character has the same degrees, but got PhDs in some of the fields, obviously.
