Summertime Dadness Round 1 Bracket 4 Match 4

[28 Jakes Later]

11. Dan Connor played by John Goodman

vs

22. Fred Flintstone played by Alan Reed

 

[O-Blaze]

Dan.

Fred is a good shout though

 

[Wolverine]

Easy choice, I choose Dan Conner.

 

[28 Jakes Later]

Dan would be the only person that I would rate as high as Uncle Phil

 

[Chris]

I nominated both but Fred was really high for me. His job was the fucking worse and his boss sucked but he did it just to provide so he could keep everyone at home happy all day

 

[28 Jakes Later]

but also his kid was an infant...there wasn't much interaction with the kid and for me that's pretty necessary when judging a dad

 

[Loochblade]

Dan was my #1. Should it come to Dan v Phil, then I'll have to make that coin flip, other than that there is no real competition for Conner. Easily a strong contender for the best TV Dad... and heck one of the best Sitcom characters of all time.

 

[28 Jakes Later]

and by far the best brother in law in TV history

 

[Chris]

but also his kid was an infant...there wasn't much interaction with the kid and for me that's pretty necessary when judging a dad

Fair enough, I was thinking of Bam Bam too bc Barney was a shit dad and Fred did more (Wilma) too for him lol but he was also young, it's def a different dynamic of dadding

 

[28 Jakes Later]

Bam Bam was Fred's...Barney had no idea

 

[O-Blaze]

and by far the best brother in law in TV history

I just rewatched the scene when he went to beat up Fisher the other day. Dan's a real one.

 

[Dubb]

Fred was a hard working dad at least but so was Dan and like it was said flintstones was more about the dynamic between him and Wilma and Barney than pebbles.

So Dan gets my vote

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

I never really watched Roseanne so Fred for me

 

[Jimmy King]

Dan Conner all the way.

 

[Hoss]

John Goodman the closest thing to Bryan Cranston in terms of having multiple roles in this? I know we're dealing with the TV series, but Goodman did at least portray Fred in the live action.

Anyways, my vote is Dan Connor.
