This time of the year, the news for Bones fans is more scarce than during the actual season. So a lot of sites start running their own polls for their readers to chose their favorites in many different categories.
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:
- Keith Mars, Veronica Mars
- Sandy Cohen, The O.C.
- Hank Moody, Californication
- Eric Taylor, Friday Night Lights
- John Winchester, Supernatural
- Nathan Scott, One Tree Hill
- Jack Bristow, Alias
- Christopher Hayden, Gilmore Girls
- Richard Castle, Castle
- Jed Bartlet, The West Wing
- Angel, Angel
- Andy Brown, Everwood
- Seeley Booth, Bones
- Rufus Humphrey, Gossip Girl
- William Adama, Battlestar Galactica
- Jack Bauer, 24
- Snoop Dogg, Snoop Doggs Father Hood
- Brian Darling, Dirty Sexy Money
- Lincoln Burrows, Prison Break
- Jonathan Kent, Smallville
- Peter Griffin, Family Guy
- HRG, Heroes
- Jesse Katsopolis, Full House
- Ozzy Osbourne, The Osbournes
- Tobias Funke, Arrested Development
- Perry Cox, Scrubs
- Emerson Cod, Pushing Daisies
- Mitch Leary, Dawson’s Creek
- Max, United States of Tara
- Jax Teller, Sons of Anarchy
- Steve Bartowski, Chuck
- Walter Bishop, Fringe
- Red Forman, That ’70s Show
- Hulk Hogan, Hogan Knows Best
- Steve Brady, Sex and the City
- Harry Wilson, 90210
- Luke Danes, Gilmore Girls
- Robbie Ray Stewart, Hannah Montana
- Martin Crane, Frasier
- Charles Bing, Friends
- Philip Banks, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
- Tom Scavo, Desperate Housewives
- Sam Bennett, Private Practice
- Jack Carter, Eureka
- Michael Bluth, Arrested Development
- Homer Simpson, The Simpsons
- Hal, Malcolm in the Middle
- Ricky Underwood, The Secret Life of the American Teenager
- Al Bundy, Married…with Children
- Frank Reynolds, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia
That’s a great list! Although, I must admit. I like the father role of Seeley more so than Angel. I’ve probably cried more watching plots with Seeley then Angel. I’m really close to my dad so that’s fun that they did that poll. We watch Bones together, we used to love the X-Files and this is our new dad/daughter time show.
How sweet, PK, that u get to share this w/ your own dad! I agree, Seeley makes a GREAT father (and David makes a great Seeley!). I also love Richard Castle, who’s on the list. The relationship between him and his daughter is so tender.
