It then broke down how things differ between father/daughter and father/son shared interests. The contrast was pretty stark. Dads’ and daughters’ most liked movies, for example, is _The Notebook_. Dads and sons were into _Star Wars._ Dads and kids of both genders “liked” _The Hangover_ the most. The most surprising and stereotyped data, however, was for television. It turns out that Dads and their girls are really into _Teen Mom_! Here’s the top 10 shared TV show likes for fathers and daughters: 1. [NCIS](https://www.facebook.com/NCIS "undefined") 2.
