Daniel the DILF


'My father and I never talked. He just wanted me around, the way Tom Garrison wants Gene around. Just to be there, be possessed'
Daniel J. Travanti


First off let me say I know very little about actor Daniel J. Travanti.  I don't think I've ever seen any of his films or television shows.  I was still a little kid when Hill St. Blues was on the air.  Because of all the great things I read, I was tempted to buy the DVD's or finding it streaming on-line, but I just never got motivated enough to start.


This post about Daniel arose when I was searching for 'hot TV daddies' to feature this weekend.  A few shots of a shirtless Daniel popped up, as well as a couple in his undies.  There were also many speedo shots from his time on Battle of the Network Stars, but I put most of those aside for later.


When I started to Google the now 84 Travanti, I didn't expect to find so many hot images.  I did expect however, to find a list of his children and maybe an ex-wife or two.  Although a mighty fine grandaddy, Travanti never had any children, nor an ex-wife or even girlfriend that I could find.  I don't like speculating on anyone's sexuality, but his not having any children or a wife had me wanting to feature this hot daddy even more....


'Actors are supersensitive. We`re emotional creatures. That`s what we deal in. That`s what we sell.'


Sadly my research also didn't turn up any on-screen nudity.  The closest I came was the 1988 thriller Midnight Crossing.  Although there was no nudity from Travanti, he did spend about half the film in a black speedo.  The movie also starred Faye Dunaway, Kim Cattrall and John Laughlin.  Laughlin also looked really hot in the film, and some may remember my previous posts featuring his on-screen nude scenes. (HERE:)  With that cast, I'm sure there are some interesting stories from the set!
