Friday Five – Favorite Fictional Fathers

 
Welcome to the Friday Five! Each week we help you get to know our writers with the help of a top 5 list! This week’s category: Favorite Fictional Fathers.
 
Father’s Day is this weekend, so I’m picking my favorite Fictional Fathers. A good father should do anything for their kids, be it put up with their shit, travel through time, or beat another man senseless to get them something they want.

1. Lincoln Hawk – Over the Top

 

2. Kyle Reese – The Terminator

 

3. Arnold Schwarzenegger as Howard Langston – Jingle All The Way

 

4. Frank Costanza – Seinfeld

 

5. Al Bundy – Married with Children
