[O-Blaze]

You know, even with Ward on my list, I might go with Hal here. If I remember correctly, and it's been years since I watched, Hal encouraged his boys to always be themselves and was pretty supportive. but I might just be thinking of a few moments.

I need a little bit of time to think. But leaning Hal.

 

[Chris]

Def Hal for me, I didn't even consider Ward cause I've seen so little of Leave it to Beaver

 

[Jimmy King]

Yeah, I’ll go Hal here even though neither were on my list.

 

[Hoss]

Oh gimme Hal easily brother

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

Hal for sure here

 

[Crocker]

Defo Hal for me.

 

[Butters]

I'm gonna go ward cleaver, I've never seen either show but I would be very surprised ward was a worse dad than the dad from malcom in the middle

 

[Fuji Vice]

This is tough, mainly because I'm not as well versed on Malcolm in the Middle. On the other hand, I nominated Ward and have seen basically every Leave it to Beaver episode, so I'm giving him my vote. He also did come across as a strict but fair parent, which is a quality sadly lacking in a lot of real life dads.

 

[Chris]

I find Hal is a good dad for the most part, I say this knowing there's a specific scene where they forget Dewey, possibly more than once lol he's very dumb, but there's a charm to how hard he tries when his family is basically in a suburban middle class hell of the 2000s

 

[Professor Booty]

Yeah I’ve never seen a single episode of Malcolm

 

[O-Blaze]

After doing thinking.

I'm going with Ward.

 

[Dubb]

Definitely Hal for me.

 

[R-Troop]

From what I know Ward Cleaver is historically viewed as a good TV Dad.

Hal not so much. I'ma go with Ward here.

 

[Wolverine]

I'm going with Hal.
