Collider has published a ranked list of the ten best characters from Hulu's crime drama Furious, created by Liz Meriwether and starring Emmy Rossum as FBI agent Alice Black and Lola Petticrew as serial killer Catherine Grace. The series, inspired by the 1987 film Black Widow, explores how women confront trauma and systemic injustice when powerful men evade accountability for their crimes, and the list highlights the performances and character arcs that made the eight-episode first season stand out.

Among those discussed are villainous patriarch Jay Easton (Peter McRobbie), whose decades-long sex-abuse ring—drawing comparisons to the Jeffrey Epstein case—forms the story's central crime, and ASAC Ed George (Danny McCarthy), the corrupt FBI figure who works to cover it up. The list frames "best" in terms of performance and narrative significance rather than moral judgement, noting that Jay is ultimately killed off by Alice rather than by illness or Catherine, delivering a measure of justice within the show's morally ambiguous world.
