TV's 50 Coolest Dads

BuddyTV recently put together a list of “TV’s 50 Coolest Dads and both our Stars Hollow Dads got a mention. At #37 is Luke Danes, but even higher, we have Christopher Hayden at #8!! So, I’m guessing “coolest” doesn’t mean “best” dad as I'm not sure Chris would have made it on at all in that case. I'm also pretty sure the makers of the list didn't take into account Luke's 'fathering' of Rory over the years.

Why did they choose Luke? “Somehow his daughter became a genius, but Luke is at his coolest when he’s the surly proprietor of greasy food and bottomless cups of coffee.”

Why did they choose Christopher? “He might not always be there for his kid, but Christopher is cool whether he’s on a motorcycle or in a family-friendly sedan. He’s young and hip and can banter with the best of them, an important skill to have when you’re surrounded by Gilmores.”
