Other 80s Sitcom Dads Who Should've Raised Red Flags

Was Bill Cosby the greatest TV sitcom dad ever or just a shady OB/GYN whose medical practice was in his basement? In hindsight, who else had a creep vibe?

Al Bundy, Married with Children

Former varsity jock has no interest in boning his sex-starved, hot wife. Spends his days touching ladies' feet for money.

Willie Tanner, ALF

Family man has tempestuous relationship with live-in plushy.

Henry Warnimont, Punky Brewster

Old man brings home random child from the grocery store. Too busy doing creepy old man stuff to prevent Cherry from playing in an abandoned refrigerator.

Danny Tanner, Full House

Man tragically loses his young wife. Naturally fills the void with a hack comedian, John Stamos and the Beach Boys.

Jason Seaver, Growing Pains

Another doctor "practicing in his home office". Raises creepy tv son. Raises creepier real life son.

Phillip Drummond, Diff'rent Strokes

White man brings a little color into his otherwise boring Park Avenue penthouse. His negligent supervision leads to Dudley getting diddled.

Arthur Carlson, WKRP in Cincinnati

OMG. This is the guy who diddled Dudley!!! Leaves NYC, moves to Cincinnati, changes professions, changes his name, but this is definitely the guy!!!
