Ok, So...One last Dad thing...


Father’s Day is almost over. Did you buy your Old Spice yet? With this in mind, I wanted to take a stroll through a short list of the hottest TV dads. We’re sure we left some good ones out—Let us know your pick. But sadly, making this list, I realized something bittersweet: TV dads are kind of lame.


5. Mike Brady (Robert Reed), The Brady Bunch
Mike Brady suffers the fate of most TV dads: handsome but painfully vanilla. Still, if you look at him right, he has total fuck-me eyes.


4. Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini), The Sopranos
Gross, yes, but sexy in that I’ll-take-you-in-the-back-alley kind of way. Plus he’s always up for it. We sure as shit wouldn’t let our daughter babysit for the Sopranos.


3. Sandy Cohen (Peter Gallagher), The O.C.
His eyebrows practically had a co-starring role, but Sandy scores high for two reasons: He rocks a girl’s name, and he’s a civil rights attorney.


2. Sherriff Andy Taylor (Andy Griffith), The Andy Griffith Show
He’s a gentle man of morals, kind to Don Knotts, and from his loins sprang Richie Cunningham. Plus, he can totally get you out of that DUI.


1. Dan Conner (John Goodman), Roseanne
Humor always trumps hotness when it comes to the men we love. And no dad was funnier, or cooler, than Dan Conner. As little girls, we wanted to grow up and marry someone like Dan. Still do. Fuck your waistline. Can you make us laugh?
