Dads have been a huge part of television from the very beginning. More than a few shows, especially in the Fifties and Sixties, revolved around a dad and his family. Most series portrayed married life, but a few iconic dads like Andy Taylor and Lucas McCain were single. 

Here are 15 TV episodes that all have Father, Dad, Paw or even Pappy in the title. Can you match each one to the right show?

8/15 lots of the Westerns tripped me but I know well the Boots with Father’s Name from The Big Valley…one of my BV episodes.

While all the results are on the honor system, me trusting you, and you trusting me, with that in mind, I'm not going to reveal how absolutely horrible I did. I'd like to convince y'all that I am a better father than guesser. Only MeTV knows for sure.

Thinking about Dick Van Dyke Show's Father of the Week when I answered the Father of the Year question.

6 out of 15...I guess I needed less daddy figure in my life and more TV?
