The Eight Worst Fathers in
The Eight Worst Fathers in Television. Tony Soprano I absolutely understand. Killing some boyfriends, scaring others away, trying to send your kids to military school..these probably aren’t great parenting decisions. I have a beef with some of the other choices. Jed Bartlet? Come on, he’s always done right by his kids. I don’t think you can fault his (imaginary) parenting because his daughters aren’t on the show much. I feel the same way about Jack Bristow on Alias. Fine, he doesn’t know how to deal with his emotions, but he is always looking out for his daughter.
Now on a list of the 8 worst mothers, Sydney Bristow’s mom should certainly be at the top.

Too bad I don’t know any of these shows… but I have to say that Alan Thick is not someone I would want, he is weak and ineffectual and Canadian.

That was an interesting choice of “Dad” topics on the part of ew.com. Honestly, I don’t know how they choose only 8, the ones they named aren’t even the worst TV dads, IMO.
That reminds me, don’t be like me… Father’s Day is tomorrow. Even if yours isn’t with you, it’s always good to remember him.
