David Boreanaz Ranks High Among TV Fathers

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:

  1. Keith Mars, Veronica Mars
  2. Sandy Cohen, The O.C.
  3. Hank Moody, Californication
  4. Eric Taylor, Friday Night Lights
  5. John Winchester, Supernatural
  6. Nathan Scott, One Tree Hill
  7. Jack Bristow, Alias
  8. Christopher Hayden, Gilmore Girls
  9. Richard Castle, Castle
  10. Jed Bartlet, The West Wing
  11. Angel, Angel
  12. Andy Brown, Everwood
  13. Seeley Booth, Bones
  14. Rufus Humphrey, Gossip Girl
  15. William Adama, Battlestar Galactica
  16. Jack Bauer, 24
  17. Snoop Dogg, Snoop Doggs Father Hood
  18. Brian Darling, Dirty Sexy Money
  19. Lincoln Burrows, Prison Break
  20. Jonathan Kent, Smallville
  21. Peter Griffin, Family Guy
  22. HRG, Heroes
  23. Jesse Katsopolis, Full House
  24. Ozzy Osbourne, The Osbournes
  25. Tobias Funke, Arrested Development
  26. Perry Cox, Scrubs
  27. Emerson Cod, Pushing Daisies
  28. Mitch Leary, Dawson’s Creek
  29. Max, United States of Tara
  30. Jax Teller, Sons of Anarchy
  31. Steve Bartowski, Chuck
  32. Walter Bishop, Fringe
  33. Red Forman, That ’70s Show
  34. Hulk Hogan, Hogan Knows Best
  35. Steve Brady, Sex and the City
  36. Harry Wilson, 90210
  37. Luke Danes, Gilmore Girls
  38. Robbie Ray Stewart, Hannah Montana
  39. Martin Crane, Frasier
  40. Charles Bing, Friends
  41. Philip Banks, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
  42. Tom Scavo, Desperate Housewives
  43. Sam Bennett, Private Practice
  44. Jack Carter, Eureka
  45. Michael Bluth, Arrested Development
  46. Homer Simpson, The Simpsons

    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. :D

    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.
