What are some good shows that have a lead femme fatale. Wherein the actions taken by the heroine are subtle or sneaky and calculated. Maybe she's not the protagonist but the antagonist.

I'm looking for shows along the line of:
Revenge
How to Get Away with Murder (to some extent)
Teresa (aside from some of the silly telenovela-isms, it meets the criteria)

Although I love Nikita and I liked Alias, not really looking for that sort of overtly obvious fighter.

What about Jessica Jones?




It's a Netflix show about a female private investigator who has her demons.

GAME OF THRONES had Cersei Lannister, Margaery Tyrell, and Olenna Tyrell.

SONS OF ANARCHY had Gemma Taylor.

ORPHAN BLACK had many such characters.
