9. Jenny (Doctor Who)

Ah, Jenny, the infamous daughter of the iconic Doctor. She's off somewhere in the universe right now, running her little heart out, but will fans ever get to see it? No, of course not!

"The Doctor's Daughter" was a fun and compelling episode of this long-running series that explored the idea of war, cloning and misunderstanding. But, the biggest takeaway was Jenny, a clone created from the Tenth Doctor's DNA. As the biological offspring of The Doctor, she had a lot to live up to, and she certainly made a great first impression.

Jenny was fun, curious, determined and overall, brilliant. She was a real chip off the old block. However, while the episode's ending saw her venturing off into space, ready to explore the cosmos and seemingly poised for a return to the series one day, fans never saw her again.

Of course, there's further evidence that the show messed up by not bringing her back, as the character has appeared in comics and audio series outside of the main canon and has been a delight in them all.
