Jensen Ackles and Misha Collins at Jus In Bello Con 11 | Rome, February 25th 2023

• michael duss (wishbone)- 3/10 only appears for like 2 minutes. his parents are dead though so i assume he has some issues related to that.
• brad (sweet valley high)- 2/10 we don't learn anything about his parents in this. however we do learn that after he read interview with a vampire, he pretended to be a vampire by trying to file his teeth into fangs and slept upside down, so i assume his father is disappointed in him.
• malcolm butterworth (mr. rhodes)- 1/10 there are only 3 episodes of this available and he never mentions his father in them. theoretically, he could have a bad relationship with him, however, malcolm seems far too sweet and naive to have dealt with any severe issues of any type in his life, daddy or otherwise.
• eric brady (days of our lives)- 6.5/10 eric is a daddy's boy who spends half a year trying to pair his parents back up just because it's what his dad wants. by the end of his time on the show, he and his father get violent with each other because his dad hates his girlfriend and calls her a whore. however, for the most part, his father loves and supports him and isn't the worst dad on this list.
• eddie g (blonde)- 7/10 his father is never once mentioned but he's an effeminate alcoholic bisexual living in LA in a polyamorous relationship with a man and a woman in the 1940s. he does not have a good relationship with his father.
• alec mcdowell (dark angel)- 5/10 does not technically have a father because he was genetically-engineered in a lab and was raised by an institution that trained him to be an emotionless assassin. however, he rebels against them and has more than a few complexes about his upbringing so i think that counts for something here.
• c.j. braxton (dawson's creek)- 4/10 okay i'll be honest i did watch his scenes in this but i don't remember if he ever talks about his dad or not but i do know that he was a serious alcoholic in high school so things were likely not great at home.
• max morgan (still life)- 8/10 there was only ever one episode of this but he and his dad immediately were shown to have a rough relationship because he was seen as the problem child compared to his dead brother who was the golden boy of the family.

• jason teague (smallville)- 7/10 his dad cut him off and he did not have a good relationship with him at all. he only got a 7 though because he had MUCH bigger mommy issues.
• jake gray (devour)- 10/10 he had a tense relationship with his adoptive father who was played by jensen's real life father. the layers there alone would give him a high score but then we also find out that jake's girlfriend is actually his biological mother who is actually satan. i don't know if that would make satan his mother or his father but nevertheless i think that gives him a perfect score.
• boaz priestly (ten inch hero)- 8/10 if i remember correctly, he directly says something negative about his father at some point in the movie. but even if he doesn't, it shouldn't matter. the man has a dyed mohawk, multiple piercings, and regularly wears eyeliner. he hates his father for sure.
• tom hanniger (my bloody valentine)- 7.5/10 he was estranged from his father but i'll be honest tom had some much bigger issues going on than just the daddy variety. that definitely took a back seat here.
• jason todd (batman: under the red hood)- 9.5/10 his adoptive father is batman and he grows up to be a murderer and a crime boss out of resentment. you do the math. .5 deducted cuz i didn't get to physically see jensen cry about this.
• dean winchester (supernatural)- 20/10 literally no character has ever been more defined by their daddy issues than dean winchester. literally everything he does can be traced back to his relationship with his father. he is the blueprint for characters with daddy issues.
• bruce wayne (batman: the long halloween)- 4/10 i feel like batman SHOULD have more daddy issues but really he's just sad his parents are dead. which could count, i suppose. he had alfred as a positive father figure, though, so i think his bigger issues are everything else about him.
• beau arlen (big sky)- 5/10 barely know this man yet but i'm giving him a preemptive half score because it's a safe bet this old fashioned texas cop man will have a few issues with his father.
• soldier boy (the boys)- 10/10 jensen and kripke combine forces again to not only make this character HAVE daddy issues but we also actively got to watch him GIVE homelander brand new daddy issues for the first time! great work guys, thank you so much.
