In honor of Father’s Day—it’s this Sunday, buy your presents now!—Facebook pulled data on shared interests that dads have with their kids.

The social platform pored through its 1.28 billion active monthly users to find self-identified fathers and their 18-and-up children to compare their “Likes” in topics including movies, TV shows, athletes, and musicians. 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
  2. Teen Mom
  3. The Ellen DeGeneres Show
  4. Grey’s Anatomy
  5. Duck Dynasty on A&E
  6. Criminal Minds
  7. House
  8. The Secret Life of the American Teenager
  9. True Blood
  10. Pretty Little Liars

The father/son TV favorites have no overlap:

  1. Family Guy
  2. SportsCenter
  3. MythBusters
  4. Tosh.0
  5. South Park
  6. Band of Brothers
  7. Two and a Half Men
  8. The Walking Dead
  9. Futurama
  10. Sons of Anarchy

And now here’s what fathers and both of their children “like” to watch:

  1. Family Guy
  2. Tosh.0
  3. House
  4. NCIS
  5. The Office
  6. Duck Dynasty on A&E
  7. The Big Bang Theory
  8. Two and a Half Men
  9. Sons of Anarchy
  10. MythBusters
