Which one of these TV dads do you wish would have adopted you? These are just some of the TV dads who I love watching... suggestions for additions would be welcomed.

Charles Ingles (Little House on the Prairie) played by Michael Landon was the best TV dad ever, and he's not on this list?!

I voted for Tim Taylor, but don't forget Willy Tanner (ALF) and Dr. Harry Weston (Empty Nest).

I already voted for someone else, but I can't resist naming a few old/odd others...

Bill Bixby (Tom Corbett) - Courtship of Eddie's Father
Fred MacMurray (Steve Douglas) - My Three Sons
Eugene Levy (Gil Bender) - Greg The Bunny
Chuck Conners (Lucas McCain) - The Rifleman
Hugh Beaumont (Ward Cleaver) - Leave It To Beaver
James Gandolfini (Tony Soprano) - The Sopranos
John Aston (Gomez Adams) - The Addams Family
Fred Gwynne (Herman Munster) - The Munsters

My apologies to Mr. Astin (Evil Roy)

Ben Cartwright (Bonanza) "Get your feet off the table."
Fred Sanford (Sanford and Son) "You hear that Elizabeth? I'm coming to join you honey."
Morty Seinfeld (Seinfeld) "I sold raincoats for thirty-five years!"
and my vote goes to...
Frank Costanza (Seinfeld) "Serenity now!"
...really. I want a Festivus for the rest of us.

Cool idea.
