When you look back on great parents, who was/were the best parent(s) from a tv show or film?

My choices:
Andy Taylor from The Andy Griffith Show
Cliff & Clair Huxtable from The Cosby Show
John & Olivia Walton from The Waltons
Charles & Carolyn Ingalls from Little House On The Prairie
Mike and Carol Brady, then everyone else.
I’m biased though.
Herman and Lily Munster
Ben Cartwright
Atticus Finch - To Kill A Mockingbird
Uncle Phil and Aunt Viv
Veronica Mars' dad Keith, was pretty good.
Let's hear it for Benjamin Sisko, a single father who did his best to be as present as possible in his son's life, who showed almost nothing but love for Jake, all while saving the Alpha Quadrant in the process.
On the DS9 front. How about Rom. he wanted his son to have a better life and knew Starfleet was the gateway for that. He wanted it to happen so bad he threaten to burn down quark's bar when he found out Quark messed with the test Rom took. One of the few times he stood up to his brother. And he had that custom made Starfleet uniform for Rom.

Miles Morales' parents
Nani was a sister but she was a good mother figure
december 21st has passed where are my superpowers?
Beldar and Prymatt Conehead, aka Donald and Mary Margaret DeCicco, are favorites of mine. Connie Conehead really couldn't have had better parents and Ronnie the Mechanic was really a great boyfriend for her, which Beldar and Prymatt eventually realized. And besides - who wouldn't want a dad who could Gnarfle a Garthok and fix a lawnmower engine with just his mouth!?

Every day is a gift, not a given right.
Mike and Carol Brady forever!
I know there are many single parent homes in real life, but it seems like on T.V. single parents are the norm and it's rare that both parents are together, usually one is dead. In the case of THE BRADY BUNCH, both Mike and Carol had a spouse that died--that's how they became the Brady bunch--yet I don't recall anyone mourning these birth parents. Ben Cartwright had bad luck with his wives--he had three which died soon after giving him a son.
