Star World Premiere HD honours Dads through Fathers' Day Special Programming!

There is nothing quite like a strong father figure in one’s life and with Fathers’ Day right around the corner, kids are often perplexed with the thought of the ideal gift for their loving patriarchs. But even the most expensive or rare gifts cannot top the gift of quality time that one spends with their dads.

Thus, to shower them with the gifts they deserve, Star World Premiere HD, India’s leading English entertainment channel is all set to introduce its daddy-friendly line-up with some super fun shows and unique TV dads for the entire family to kick back, relax and watch on Fathers’ Day, Sunday, June 19th!

As part of the celebrations, the channel will line up a series of shows full of warmth, mirth and happiness that holds the most radically different yet loving fathers at the heart of their plots.

First in line is The Goldbergs. Jeff of The Goldbergs is the gruff, somewhat asocial patriarch of The Goldbergs family. Unlike Beverly, he is realistic about his children's abilities and believes she smothers them too much. He has worked full-time since his teenage years, and wants his children to learn how to fend for themselves. He runs his father-in-law's furniture business, loves sports, and is often seen lounging in front of his TV without wearing pants. The Goldbergs will air on Star World Premiere HD at 8 PM.

Following suit is John Stamos, the actor who became widely popular as the unconventional, cool and protective Uncle Jesse to three kids – DJ, Stephanie and Michelle on the adorably funny family show – Full House! Taking his suave personality a notch above, Stamos now features as the sexy yet clueless and adorable father and grandfather, Jimmy, on the rib-tickling TV series Grandfathered. The show follows Jimmy’s life as the self-absorbed, career obsessed, successful 50 year old restaurateur who determines to lead a life of a partying bachelor after his recent divorce. However, when he discovers that he has both, a son and a granddaughter, the unexperienced now-a-parent tries to turn his life around into becoming responsible and dependable after his child and grandchild melt away his tough, sturdy exterior to reveal his soft and caring heart. Grandfathered will air at 8:30 PM!

Meanwhile, Andre ‘Dre’ Johnson, the head of the Johnson family on the super-loved sitcom Black-ish is a content man with a job as the top ad executive, a beautiful doctor wife – Rainbow and four great kids – Zoey, Andre Jr., Jack and Diane. The show follows his adventure as he increasingly gets concerned with his children losing their cultural identity. Black-ish will air at 9 PM.

Next on the list is the highly acclaimed family drama series Togetherness that features Brett Pierson, a dad and a sound editor who tries his best to do right by his daughter, Abbie while rededicating his life to his family and work. Togetherness will air at 10 PM.

Last on the list is Peter Griffin, the quintessentially funny and charmingly clueless patriarch of the Griffin family on the hit TV series Family Guy who will make his way on the channel in his bumbling yet well-intentioned blue-collar worker way. The show follows the adventures of Peter as he tries to do the right thing for his assorted family of two teenagers – Meg and Chris, his stay-at-home wife – Lois, their diabolical infant son – Stewie and a smart, witty, sarcastic and English-speaking anthropomorphic dog – Brian. Family Guy will air at 11 PM!

So catch the most uniquely fun, loving and supportive TV dads on Star World Premiere HD as you leisurely spend Fathers’ Day with your pops and identify which one of the uber-ccol dads does your father resemble!
