Ugly Betty, Bradford Meade
And the next father up to bat is Bradford Meade! For conducting an affair with (then proposing to) Wilhelmina Slater, the enterprising she-zilla with designs on son Daniel's fashion-editor job — all while the mother of his children rots in a jail cell for murdering his previous mistress...strike one! For consistently belittling Daniel after saddling him with a job far beyond his capabilities...strike two! And finally, for hiring a Brazilian hunk to surreptitiously seduce his needy daughter Alexis in the wake of her gender-reassignment surgery, for the sole purpose of getting her out of the country (and out of his three remaining hairs) — yeah, okay, Alexis did fake her own death and try to have Bradford thrown in the clink, but come on, he's her dad! — all together now...strike three! — Michael Slezak
