Even for someone who wants to be a better man, there aren’t role models or celebrations of " good manliness". There’s no positive road map, only a list of “don’ts” and stereotypes to avoid.

I meant the father from Bluey. What's his name? Bandit?

Yeah, it's Bandit. It's one of those series that you can watch as an adult. It's great. If they ever stop making it, I'm going to riot.

bluey is great, but it's only one example in a sea of no ships. It's also aussie, so it's not even super culturally relevant to most of the west, it's also focused at really young children.

Beyond young children you have shows like, full house, which is literally fucking ancient.
