Rick Grimes is the definition of a hero in The Walking Dead. He's one of the few characters who's managed to stay alive (despite many close calls) for all seven seasons. Plus, he's been able to keep Carl and his baby Judith safe, which is saying a lot given how much went down in the last season. So it's no surprise that if anyone should get a standing ovation in the dad department, it's Rick Grimes, who's played by Andrew Lincoln.
Looking for proof? Here's a roundup of some of his best parenting moments post-zombie apocalypse. The eighth season of The Walking Dead premieres on AMC Oct. 22.
