Remember These 90’s Sitcom Dads?

The ’90s were truly the decade of the sitcom. Seemed like every show on TV at that time had 20 minute long episodes, revolved around some kind of usual-but-kind-of-unusual family that dealt with everyday problems in everyday situations, and had at least one character that was just there for comic relief. While they weren’t the deepest or best shows, they were rarely uninteresting and quite often very entertaining to watch.

And one especially powerful archetype of that time was the pater familias, the man of the house. Let’s take a look at some 90’s sitcom dads and see what they’ve been up to lately.

Ray Romano

Everybody loved Raymond in the ’90s, but we haven’t heard much from him since, apart from his voice work as Manny in the Ice Age series. He has a good excuse for keeping a low profile, though: as his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010, the couple decided to use their wealth and influence to make sure other women can have access to the same care she did and will no longer have to worry whether their insurance will cover the costs or not.

John Goodman

Arguably the most successful actor on this list, it’s hard to imagine that this guy’s career started by being the dad in Roseanne. We now know him mostly from The Big Lebowski and his many other roles on the big screen. He’s a top-notch actor and I’m sure he’s gutted that the Roseanne reboot got canceled.

Patrick Duffy

The more “modern” version of the Brady Bunch, Step by Step, had one of the most iconic sitcom dads of the ’90s. Patrick Duffy played the loveable Frank Lambart and after the show ended he moved on to other tv projects like Dallas and The Bold and the Beautiful. He’s doesn’t have any negative feelings towards playing in a Step by Step reboot or sequel, but he does say the script would have to be good.
