On Father's Day we like to celebrate the great dads out there, and boy there are really some gems out there. Here are fifteen of our favourite fictional dads...
1. Homer Simpson from The Simpsons
Without a shadow of a doubt, the best fictional father.
2. Atticus Finch from To Kill A Mocking Bird
Full of wisdom, love and respect for others, Atticus taught us as much about how to treat people as he did the young Scout.
3. Dill from Easy A
And the award for the funny dad goes to...
4. George Banks from Father of the Bride
Well, George would certainly be in second place.
5. Pongo from 101 Dalmations
What a dog! What a dog...
6. Phil from Modern Family
If you are not watching this, you really must start. There are lessons to be learnt.
7. Mr. Huxstable from the Cosby Show
Because it's Bill Cosby!
8. Rev. Eric Camden from 7th Heaven
Didn't he know EVERYTHING?
9. Liam Neeson from Taken.
He will hunt you down... You will basically never get lost.
10. Marlin from Finding Nemo
And here's his pal Marlin! Wow, these Dads spend a lot of time looking for their children.
11. Robin Williams from Mrs Doubtfire
Not many men would dress up as a woman to see their children...
12. Mufasa from The Lion King
It's too difficult to talk about.
13. Bill Pullman from Casper
Incredibly sweet.
14. Sandy Cohen from the OC.
Another one of those cool Dads who just knew everything!
15. Michael Keaton from Jack Frost
Because, well, he's a snowman!
