5 Fandom Friday: Favourite Fictional Fathers


In honor of Father’s Day, much as for Mother’s Day, we are listing out favourite fiction fathers this weekend!

1.  Bob Belcher from Bob’s Burgers  is sort of the “straight man” to his wacky family, but that’s what they need.  Also, the burger puns.



2.  Giles from Buffy the Vampire Slayer  isn’t so much really a dad, but in the season 6 episode Tabula Rasa he thought he was Spike’s dad, which was adorable!!  Oh, season 6, you weird hot mess you…


3.  Jean Valjean from Les Miserables  also…not really a dad…but he did “Bring Him Home” and care for Cosette growing up…


4.  Ted from Buffy the Vampire Slayer  Okay, so he wasn’t really a dad, but he almost became Buffy’s evil stepfather!  If this episode didn’t give you the willies, I can’t even.

5.  Homer Simpson  can’t have a list like this without Homer on it.  He’s the classic.
