Since most of us are actually at an age where we the Dads are, kind of, in the age group we could potentially date, I thought it would be kind of fun.
For the purposes of this poll, they are all single and childless. So the fact that, say, Watson comes with Karen isn't a factor. Also consider the illustrations--fyi, Mr. Pike and Mr. Schafer look mighty handsome.
I choose Seth the Bearded Carpenter, because he could fix stuff around the house, is really nice, and I'd probably never have to buy furniture, except for couches.

I love that you included "The Trip-Man," Greer, so funny. I think based on illustrations and also in Jack's case Jeff, I'm guessing Mr. Schafer had blond hair and blue eyes. Typically that is a combo that I find attractive in men, though most of the guys I have actually dated have had darker hair and eyes! I can't choose him because of the scene in Dawn's Portrait where Dawn is recalling when her parents broke the divorce news. I know this was not the exact wording but it came across that way to me as the message that when Dawn tried to get up off the couch to probably leave the room because she just didn't want to hear anymore, her dad physically shoved her back down. :/ Brings back not very pleasant memories for me of truly being hurt as a kid and also in BSC-Land reminds me of something Mr. Nicholls might do. So, even though he is probably very good looking, I can't imagine dating Jack. I voted for Mr. Pike. John Pike I think was also handsome in illustrations. More than that, I loved him in Sea City when he asked Stacey to help him cook breakfast so he could privately check with her on the menu. I do think overall, even though we didn't always get to read about it, both Pike parents were close to their kids. I love how John said to Mallory in "Baby-sitters on Board," that wouldn't going on rides even with him--her old dad--be more fun than alone? A Disney fan who is also a good guy=great to me. Seth, I will always be a huge fan of and he is my favorite BSC Dad. Since we are talking physical characteristics, he does not come across as (immediately) handsome to me as I prefer completely clean cut men. If the title of this poll was which BSC Dad would I most like to date (before he was a dad, of course) no question Seth Engle wins hands down. He had a wonderful heart and was such an awesome person to both Karen and Andrew. Plus, I love his holiday enthusiasm, seems like he does try to make them more fun for the kids while not being afraid to enjoy also. Great guy, that Seth. Since the title is which dad is the hottest, I voted for John.

I voted for Seth. Y'all know about my crush on Jesus (even he knows!) so Seth would naturally be my first choice because of his looking like Jesus. Also he's such a super nice guy. However, Mr. Pike would come in close 2nd. He looks really hot in Mallory's scrapbook picture.

^When you put him that way, I stand by my choice, even more. Very clever way to vote Boo Boo.

I did kind of mean who would you date. Zoar for me hotness isn't necessarily a physical quality alone--although few can argue with the handsome movie star looks of Mr. Pike in the scrapbook picture! (And I agree with dating a man who loves going to Disney!) Yeah, there is something about Mr. Schafer that has always rubbed me the wrong way. I don't know what it is--like, just remembering how he kept on disappearing before the divorce and the way he fought with Carol and everything.

Seth for sure. I have a weakness for bearded men as anyone who has seen my husband can attest to. Also he'd be handy. My husband is not. He breaks more than he fixes.
Watson is too bald. Richard just not my type as he just came across as boring.
