STORYMARK

I loved Alias, as well. And Jack was my favorite character on the shows (loved his last scene with Sloan).

That said, I wouldn't wish him as a father on anyone.

Jack Bristow was OK. But my fave recent tv dad is Mr. Bennett on HEROES.

Select to view spoiler:

Anyone who asks a Haitian to shoot him on a bridge in the middle of nowhere and wipe the memory of his adopted superpowered daughter so that the company he works for can't find her and lock her up should at least put him in the running for "Best TV Dad of the Year".

Well, admittedly, Jack wasn't perfect and he was more than a little scary, but his genuine love and loyalty to his daughter still gives me goosebumps.

My own 'father' was more of a fun mix of Hank Summers and Al Bundy, so you get the picture.

Don't watch HEROES, but he doesn't sound all that different from Jack Bristow to me!

I think Mr. Bristow and Mr. Bennett would get along very well.

Unless their goals were somehow opposing, then things would get very nasty.

My money would be on Jack, if he weren't, you know, dead.

I'm still in denial that Jack's dead. Not only is the show infamous for faking deaths, but Sydney's ENTIRE family is dead, with the exception of Vaughn and their children, and of course rarely seen Auntie Isabella.

Me too.

Except for that pesky part when he "tested" Veronica's loyalty to him over the Kane inheritance during the whole "who's your daddy?" fiasco, and this year when he slept with a married woman after what Lianne did to him and Veronica.

Still love him, but that kinda pissed me off.

Are you kidding? Everyone knows Al Bundy is the best father in television history! A close second is Kevin's dad on The Wonder Years.

That's funny.

And I suppose the best mom would be Peg?
