Bad dads, bad dads, whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when they come for you? Deadbeat dads around the country might want to start quaking in their boots right now because the dude who hosted Fun House is coming after their asses. OK, not exactly, J.D. Roth is just executive producing the new Fox pilot Bad Dads. Jim Durham (head of the National Child Support Center) fancies himself the next Dog, the Bounty Hunter (though hopefully without all the legal woes). He'll be tracking down failed fathers who've ditch their kids and don't give them what's due. Durham will even be ambushing them in public if they ignore him. Sounds kind of awesome. Well, as awesome as it can be without someone getting handcuffed and tossed in a squad car. Still, if the slacker dad's don't pay up, I think the producers could easily put on footage of the disembodied J.D. Roth hosting Fox's not short-lived enough series Unan1mous. That's a kind of torture that's bound to scare them straight.
