Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Is it wrong for me to drive (four hours) to my sister's for Thanksgiving on Thursday morning instead of Wednesday afternoon, so that I can watch Criminal Minds as it airs?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
LeN, I didn't want to repost your info, so I figured if I mentioned it then you could do it.

Dude, it's episode 100! The manangst (I don't want to call it manpain--it's a slightly different flavour) will be epic.

I know! Epic. She'll just have to deal. If she can rearrange her life around her boyfriend's intense love of sports, she can give me a little leeway for my intense love of certain television shows, right? Besides, she can't make me! stamps foot but in a really grown-up way

So - best TV dad currently:
Cal Lightman, Nick Castle or Jack Carter?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Well, I'm several episodes behind in Lie to Me, and I haven't seen Jack recently, so I'll go with Castle for the moment. I like his parenting a whole lot.

I would say Lightman. Best daughter would be Castle's - but she grew up despite some questionable parenting skills.

I think Cal has too much friction in his relationship with Emily to win. I'd probably give the edge to Jack because Alexis kinda raises herself--or maybe Rick gets the points for doing that good a job. It's a hard call.
Cal is still head and shoulders above a lot of TV dads. But my favourite of the past decade is probably Sandy Cohen from The O.C.
