There is one problem with tomorrow's CTN Father's Day marathon.
Fred Flintstone, George Jetson, Professor Utonium and Dexter's Dad sure fit, but why is Estuice there? I mean, he isn't even a father.
They could have just used the first four mentioned or include Auggie Doggie shorts, but instead they pass off a dog's owner where he obviously dosen't belong.

Yeah, I see you're point, since Eustuce really isn't any kind of father figure (not even a bad one). I could see Muriel being on a Mother's Day special, since she kind of treats Courage like a child (in a way) but why Eustuce? Oh well, guess they're make a joke about it tommorrow or something, but will it be funny (or even make sense). Probably not.

I was thinking of them using Cow and Chicken's Dad instead of Eustuce. Makes even more sence to me.

the Dexter's Dad shorts are some of my favorite "Dexter's Lab" shorts. Example "Muffin King."
Also, I noticed in the short where Dexter's Dad watches golf, one of the golfers in it is named "McCracken." If I remember correctly, that's "Powerpuff Girls" creator Craig McCracken.

Yup. That's what the writers like to call a little injoke (since Craig McCracken used to be one of the Directors of Dexter's Laboratory before he moved to work on the PowerPuff Girls). There are lots of injokes between Dexter's Lab and PPG.

Good to see that I'm not alone in my feelings about Eustace.
He doesn't count as a father. I'm not even sure he counts as a human being.

Eh, just a reason to show a Cartoon Cartoon, though admittedly they could have found another. I wish they had used more variety; the yhave plenty of fathers to showcase. But I guess it's better than that mafioso Flintstone's skirt hogging the spotlight.

Not to mention that in one episode that man himself (Dexter) appeared on the streets in a quick cameo in the PPG episode "Forced Kin" (when Blossom was talking about how evil and deadly the alien force was and how it was threathening the town). There are also a lot of SJ cameos in Dexter, like the Samurai Jack doll seen in the episode "Sore Eyes".
