Ep 161: Father Hood (1993)

We kick off our annual "back to school" (aka sh*tbird) month with 1993's Father Hood, in which Patrick Swayze trades his dancing shoes for a beat-up station wagon as Jack Charles, a small-time crook suddenly saddled with his two kids that he left in foster care after his wife passed. After rescuing them from a shady foster home straight out of a bad made-for-TV movie, Jack takes them on a chaotic cross-country run from both the law and his own commitment issues. Along the way, there’s bonding, bickering, and just enough heartwarming moments to make you forget he’s technically kidnapping them... almost. It’s part road trip comedy, part family drama, and 100% drunk Swayze charisma.
