The fun thing in this Buddy TV poll is that two characters played by David Boreanaz ranked in the top 15 out of 50 TV fathers for the fans’ favorite. I added a photo of David Boreanaz with his real life son Jaden.

I think it’s funny that this list includes one drag queen (Chandler Bing’s father on Friends) a couple of animated fathers, and even a couple of real-life fathers including Snoop Dogg, Hulk Hogan & Ozzy Osbourne. What a list!

Here was the competition:

1. Keith Mars, Veronica Mars
2. Sandy Cohen, The O.C.
3. Hank Moody, Californication
4. Eric Taylor, Friday Night Lights
5. John Winchester, Supernatural
6. Nathan Scott, One Tree Hill
7. Jack Bristow, Alias
8. Christopher Hayden, Gilmore Girls
9. Richard Castle, Castle
10. Jed Bartlet, The West Wing
11. Angel, Angel
12. Andy Brown, Everwood
13. Seeley Booth, Bones
14. Rufus Humphrey, Gossip Girl
15. William Adama, Battlestar Galactica
16. Jack Bauer, 24
17. Snoop Dogg, Snoop Doggs Father Hood
18. Brian Darling, Dirty Sexy Money
19. Lincoln Burrows, Prison Break
20. Jonathan Kent, Smallville
21. Peter Griffin, Family Guy
22. HRG, Heroes
23. Jesse Katsopolis, Full House
24. Ozzy Osbourne, The Osbournes
25. Tobias Funke, Arrested Development

31. Steve Bartowski, Chuck
32. Walter Bishop, Fringe
33. Red Forman, That ’70s Show
34. Hulk Hogan, Hogan Knows Best
35. Steve Brady, Sex and the City
36. Harry Wilson, 90210
37. Luke Danes, Gilmore Girls
38. Robbie Ray Stewart, Hannah Montana
39. Martin Crane, Frasier
40. Charles Bing, Friends
41. Philip Banks, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

Wow, I'm impressed Castle made the list considering how few people seem to have heard of this show.

I thought that was interesting too. I wonder how they put together this list?

Amaranth, I agree with akajb. I don't think you could really say that any tv father is unrealistic, since there very well could be fathers out there that behave that way (the exception would be a character like Peter Griffin of course). And akajb was saying in the sense that he makes mistakes and acknowledges it, and still tries to raise his daughter in the best way that he can. I'd say that's pretty realistic.
