Some of Our Favorite Gay TV Dads of All Time
Nickelodeon/ABC/Nickelodeon
Father's Day is the time we honor those special father figures in our lives. And for those of us who have grown up with television, we've also grown close to some fictional dads on television.
In recent years, LGBTQ+ representation among fathers in television has grown to include some memorable characters and performances.
We've curated a few of our favorite gay TV dads. Did we find yours?
Glee
FOX
Hiram (Jeff Goldblum) and Leroy (Brian Stokes Mitchell) were Rachel's (Lea Michele) urbane parents on Glee.
The Loud House
Nickelodeon
Clyde is lucky to have his adoptive fathers, Howard (Michael McDonald) and Harold McBride (Wayne Brady) on The Loud House.
Duck Tales
Disney Channel
Indy and Ty Sabrewing wore dueling "I'm With Dad" shirts and were the proud fathers of Violet in Duck Tales.
Danger Force
Nickelodeon
Justin (Tommy Dickie) and Dustan (Brandon Claybon) appeared in an episode of Danger Force as two dads reunited with their lost child, Ellis, much to the chagrin of a shirtless Captain Man who had been looking forward to meeting the child's mother.
Modern Family
ABC
Mitch Pritchett (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) and Cameron Tucker (Eric Stonestreet) were loving, if somewhat neurotic, fathers of Lily and Rexford Tucker-Pritchett on the long-running Modern Family.
American Dad
FOX
Terry Bates and Greg Corbin had a daughter together named Libby (or Liberty Belle, depending upon who you asked) on American Dad.
Six Feet Under
HBO
David Fisher (Michael C. Hall) and Keith Charles(Michael St. Patrick) had their ups and downs on Six Feet Under.
She-Ra and the Princesses of Power
Netflix
George (Chris Jai Alex) and Lance (Regi Davi) were Bow's proud pops on She-Ra and the Princesses of Power.
The Brady Bunch
ABC
Of course, no list of gay TV dads would be complete without America's original fave gay dad himself, Mike Brady. So what if Mike was the proud (allegedly) cis-straight father of a blended family of six children and was the first TV husband to share a bed onscreen with his TV wife. Actor Robert Reed was gay, and his portrayal as Mike Brady showed generations of children and families the meaning of fatherhood.
