Best TV Dad #10: George Lopez
George Lopez
“The George Lopez Show”
No doubt a surprise entry for most of us. George didn’t even make it on the national poll. I have watched the show on occasion, but my kid loves it — so much that I get a ‘shush’ if I try to ask him something during an episode

Best TV Dad #9: Al Bundy
“Married With Children”

Best TV Dad #8: Homer Simpson
“The Simpsons”

Best TV Dad #5: Peter Griffin
“Family Guy”
