I love old television shows and movies. I am in the process of watching Hogan's Heroes on Freevee right now. Hilarious without being risque.

Hogan is on Every weekday at 9pm central time on MeTV

You might also like the TV show Our Miss Brooks

Eve Arden who played Miss Brooks was also the high principal in the movies Greese and Greese 2

Great question... I had to think about this one. I guess my favorite Dad would be Tim Taylor (played by Tim Allen) on "Home Improvement". My favorite Mom would be his wife, Jill (played by Patricia Richardson). They were a great couple, and very good parents for their three sons.

Maybe Andy Taylor/Griffith. Great actor, and a fun but fatherly feeling character on his tv show.
Tim Allen was very funny in Home Improvement. (and everything else. lol) However tv dads that focus that much on humor have less of a fatherly feel than ones like Andy Taylor.

Al Bundy! Primarily because he was NOT Politically Correct and to be honest was a bit irreverent. In my 65 years, I have ALWAYS been more comfortable being around people who are brutally honest than being around some pansy that's scared shitless to say what is on their mind! Or somebody that won't take a position until they have wet their finger and stuck it in the air to see what direction the political winds come from!

Al Bundy.
