I can't believe Data was mentioned as an Aspie and not Mr. Spock. I bet Holden Caufield could have been an Aspie. Same with Sound wave fromthe old Transformers cartoon. Droopy from the even older Hanna Barbera cartoons was an aspie. That's all for now....
Juggernaut mentioned Mr. Spock in the first post.
Also Seven of Nine, although that could be an ubringing thing.
Anya from Buffy the vampire Slayer - even back when she was human the first time, she said people complained about her taking things literally. She tends to be blunt, slightly unempathetic, and sees things in strightforward ways. (For example, the episode where she decides that capitalism is patriotic.)
Possibly Fred from the Angel series - she's considered sweet and innocent, is a bit socially awkward, has genius level intellect for maths, and likes to build things. In one scene someone mentions clearing the names from a board, referring to getting rid of opponents, and she says 'I can do that,' and starts wiping it off with a board wiper.
