Who Is Your TV Dad?

The lines between reality and television are probably most often blurred when it comes to fatherhood. Why in the world, you wonder?

Because for as long as the world can remember (or at least since TV existed), the TV dad was a staple character of the sitcom, and thus, a part of all our families. It's impossible to tell if our fathers shaped the portrayal of parenting on television, or if Hollywood dads influenced the type of advice and dad jokes we hear on a regular basis.

There are so many TV dads for the world to look up to, and there's definitely one for every kind of family unit. They range from the straight-edged, concerned, hands-on fathers like Danny Tanner and Mike Brady to the more modern, less sensible -- but all the while lovable -- Homer Simpson. So if your life was suddenly turned into the latest primetime show, who would your TV dad be?

Take Mashable's highly accurate, scientifically rendered quiz to find out. And then after you do, go hug your real dad, because you can't hug a TV screen (comfortably, at least).
