Dreamy Dads: 18 Dreamy TV Dads Today (from AOL)

18. Det. Elliot Stabler
Show: 'Law & Order: SVU'
Played by: Christopher Meloni
Why He's Dreamy: We love it when the good guys are tough. Elliot is the complete alpha male, overpowering the criminals in the interrogation room, and these comments suggest we're not the only ones who think he's dreamy.

17. Keith Mars
Show: 'Veronica Mars'
Played by: Enrico Colantoni
Why He's Dreamy: Bald men are sexy. Witty ones are even sexier. Keith has both qualities, plus he's smarter than nearly everyone in town. He can solve our cases anytime.

16. Bill Hendrickson
Show: 'Big Love'
Played by: Bill Paxton
Why He's Dreamy: He may be a polygamist, but he's also a doting father and tries to satisfy his three wives, which more than most TV husbands can do with just one. He's cute in a 'Father Knows Best' kind of way.

15. Karl "Helo" Agathon
Show: 'Battlestar Galactica'
Played by: Tahmoh Penikett
Why He's Dreamy: We're suckers for men in uniform. This officer is fierce when it comes to protecting his Cylon wife, Sharon, and their child from fleet prejudices and plots. He'll even disobey orders to do so. Hey, we're suckers for rebels, too.

14. Fernando Sucre
Show: 'Prison Break'
Played by: Amaury Nolasco
Why He's Dreamy: Tall, dark, handsome, Sucre looks his best when breaking the law. He's not a murderer like some of the other escapees and, unlike Lincoln, he knows how to button his shirt

13. Luke Danes
Show: 'Gilmore Girls'
Played by: Scott Patterson
Why He's Dreamy: The diner owner likes to act like a curmudgeon, but it's really all for show. He adores pre-teen daughter April and served as a father figure for Rory. Plus, he can make a mean cup of joe.

12. Tom Scavo
Show: 'Desperate Housewives'
Played by: Doug Savant
Why He's Dreamy: His devotion to his wife and kids makes our hearts flutter. He was even a house husband for a while. He's a bit of a dreamer but he at least tries to make his wife and kids happy.

11. Seeley Booth
Show: 'Bones'
Played by: David Boreanaz
Why He's Dreamy: Beyond the smoldering good looks, Booth can make the best out of any situation. He's also very protective over the women he loves. Who doesn't love a guy that makes you feel safe?

10. James "Sawyer" Ford
Show: 'Lost'
Played by: Josh Holloway
Why He's Dreamy: We always fall for the sarcastic bad boys and judging by the bank account he opened for his baby daughter, he has potential to be a loving dad. He gets extra-dreamy points for that.

9. Christopher Turk
Show: 'Scrubs'
Played by: Donald Faison
Why He's Dreamy: Geeks can be sexy too. Turkleton, with his goofy attitude and gap-toothed grin, may not be the smoothest guy in this list, but he could be the most charming.

8. John E. Winchester
Show: 'Supernatural'
Played by: Jeffrey Dean Morgan
Why He's Dreamy: Who could resist those big green eyes and the scruffy beard that gives him such rugged charm? John can make killing demons look sexy; where do you think Dean and Sam got it from?

7. Eric Taylor
Show: 'Friday Night Lights'
Played by: Kyle Chandler
Why He's Dreamy: That deep Southern drawl gets us every time. The high school football coach is really a man's man, but he's a total softie when it comes to his wife and daughter.

6. Luka Kovac
Show: 'ER'
Played by: Goran Visnjic
Why He's Dreamy: A tall, dark, handsome doctor? And one who'll plan a romantic surprise wedding? Plus, anyone's knees would go wobbly after hearing Luka recite 'Hamlet' in Croatian.

5. Joe Dubois
Show: 'Medium'
Played by: Jake Weber
Why He's Dreamy: Many a guy, upon hearing his wife sees dead people, would run screaming for the hills. Not Joe. He supported wife Allison from the beginning.

4.Nathan Petrelli
Show: 'Heroes'
Played by: Adrian Pasdar
Why He's Dreamy: Nathan is mysterious, so it's tough to know what he's thinking, and being a politician makes him a smooth talker. Plus, he can sweep you off your feet...literally.

3. Jack Bauer
Show: '24'
Played by: Kiefer Sutherland
Why He's Dreamy: Jack's women tend to get killed or turn out to be traitors, but who can resist that gravelly, authoritative voice? We wouldn't object if Jack took us into custody.

2. Jin Kwon
Show: 'Lost'
Played by: Daniel Dae Kim
Why He's Dreamy: Jin started out as an overprotective, overbearing husband, but island life has softened him up. This season Sun saw an ultrasound of their baby and when Jin heard the news, he grinned like a proud papa.

1. Jack Carter
Show: 'Eureka'
Played by: Colin Ferguson
Why He's Dreamy: He's a flirt with a little bit of an edge. Not only is Jack a newly single dad to daughter Zoe, who has a rebel streak, he's also the sheriff of Eureka and just looks so good in that uniform.

---------------------------

My favorites from the list:
-Chris Meloni - gotta love his character Elliot Stabler! he is super sexy!
-Doug Savant - I liked him from the movie First Daughter...way before Desperate Housewives <---though I don't actually watch DH
-Jeffrey Dean Morgan - of course John Winchester is a sexy father!...have you seen his children? haha ;)
-Kyle Chandler - I love Kyle Chandler! I use to watch him in Early Edition! I'm a little sad to say I don't watch Friday Night Lights but I wish I did!
-Adrian Pasdar - I use to watch him in Mysterious Ways...and again...I don't watch Heroes (though I REALLY wish I did)
