LISTEN. Listen. Sometimes there are questions that, although they are difficult and maybe you don’t even want to hear the answer, need to be asked. And sometimes there are questions that 100% do not have to be asked, and are so stupid, just the dumbest, but have the potential to spark some interesting conversation about which dad on a current television show is the handsomest one. It up to you to decide which kind of question this question is. I was watching Parenthood on Tuesday night, obviously, as were you I assume, and there was a scene in which Adam (Peter Krause) brought his son Max a book in order to try to convince him to go to his school’s dance (because his mom has spoiler alert and might spoiler alert before the next one) (why am I explaining this to you, though? you watch this show & love every second) and he said, “I have a book for you about World War II fighter pilots you have not read.” And at that moment I thought, “Peter Krause is FOR SURE television’s best and most handsome dad.” He has always been one of television’s most handsome psychopaths, but his role of Adam on Parenthood is both handsome in his heart and on his face. Do you agree? If not: Why? Is it because you aren’t watching Parenthood? If so: What’s the deal? You dumb? Or is it because you think Coach Friday Night Lights is television’s most handsome dad? Or do you prefer Bob Belcher? Or Tim Allen? Or is there a dad out there that I’m not even considering? Let’s please discuss this topic and let’s please not point out how this topic is weird at best and completely pointless at worst because I’m not sure we all want to waste our time discussing something that is incorrect. So, who is it? Adam from Parenthood, or what?

Coach Taylor, obv.
Thank you for participating, this has been a stressful few minutes.
Everyone’s probably just having a hard time picking.
Cory Matthews 2013.
I call bullshit! We all know Kelly really thinks that Rufus Humphrey is TV’s handsomest dad.
NOT THIS SEASON.
So you’re saying that this season it’s the newly-resurrected Bart Bass? You and Lily… so fickle.
They are both the worst!
Did anyone else who watches GG realize that Rufus Humphrey is Lt. Spears from ‘Band of Brothers’? Like, the most stone-cold badass in that whole series, and now he’s like, midlife crisis band dad on a CW show? Talk about a fall from grace. IT CANNOT BE UNKNOWN.
JOEL GRAHAM. CROSBY BRAVERMAN. ALL THE BRAVERMEN.
Also acceptable.
Joel Graham is definitely the best dad.
Am I missing something? Did Sally Draper die in a skiing accident with Creepy Glen?
Don Draper now and 4ever.
That’s a good point. It’s tough to differentiate between “TV Dad” and “TV character who also happens to be a dad,” I think.
I too suggested Don Draper, but I think we should clarify terms.
A TV dad should probably be defined as:
A character that is 1) a father and 2) predominantly involved in plot lines surrounding their role as parent/family man.
In which case Don Draper and Coach Taylor would not qualify. Adam Braverman qualifies.
I disagree with Coach Taylor not qualifying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I second your disagreeing!
The obvious answer:
And he’s a lawyer, LADIES.
Oh boy. Sandy Cohen. LOVE HIM.
Does Berkeley still have a Sandy Cohen scholarship at their law school for students who want to do pro bono work after graduation? That was so great when that happened in real life.
Sandy Cohen, changing lives in the O.C. and in real life.
Chloe’s dad from “Dont Trust the B**** in Apt 2B” Anyone?
Peter Krause looks like he got the Hollywood man make over and therefore he’s out in my book. He now has that vaguely botoxed collagen on the way to being faceless David Geffen face. Mine is Seely on BONES!
I like that this is the picture you found for Booth. Me gusta.
Stupid sexy Flanders.
This statement has made me happier than anything else today. Bless you, LBT.

When I was a kid I thought Graham from My So-Called Life was pretty cute
Keith Mars is the best tv dad, and he is handsome, but not the handsomest.
Chuck Bass have to have a kid out there somewhere – he is pretty easy on the eyes.
Bart Bass is a silver fox!
COME ON, guys. I don’t even have any skin in this game and I’m running circles around you.
#worstmosthandsomestdad
“Step dads are fathers, too.”
I’m popping my commenting cherry to tell you guys that I find Burt on Raising Hope VERY attractive. Hottest granddad, even.
“why thank you” – gareth dillahunt
Foxxxxxxxy.
Jeremy Sisto as George Altman on Suburgatory. Oh baby.
Ty Burrell or Peter Krause, please. Or sexy Coach Taylor.
Jason Bateman as Michael Bluth, obvy.
This is who I was thinking, too.
Never ending “Banana Stand” innuendos! HOT HOT HOT!
Ugh, this means we are officially old. I read somewhere once that you know you are an “adult” when you switch from finding the offspring attractive to finding the parents attractive.
This is tough. Before this trainwreck of a season, it was Rufus Humphrey by a mile (waffles), but now it’s probably back to Sandy Cohen. Max Greenfield also played young Sandy in a flashback to his Berkeley days!
On the other hand, Joel from Parenthood since I did not even know his character’s name for some time because he was just Handsome Husband. That is a convincing case.
Dexter Morgan is handsome
Too much masturbating while crying, sorry.
Was it ever proven that he was the father of the wee baby Seamus?
He’s not, Cyril is, but you weren’t supposed to notice that!
Does no-one think Walter White is sexy? Come on! If for no other reason than the storage locker full of drug money!

And you named Joshua Jackson two times!
“Duh, I like the dad with the penis.” – the internet.
It should be stated — Hasn’t the same dad ruled 90% of television since the 50′s? Aren’t we watching 50 Shades of some bizarre Desi Arnaz think-a-like?
Objectively speaking? Luke from Gilmore. and when the time comes, Jess 20(??)
