Bio Dad - A Comedy Song by Riki Lindhome featuring Hunter Doohan

Sometimes, you can put off being a parent for a while.  That while can sometimes become a little too long and you might find yourself without the prerequisite other half with whom to share the moment.  When this happens, there are options – and Riki Lindhorne’s new song Bio Dad, shows a woman asking a male friend to make a little donation in order to fulfil her desire to be a mother. This is funny -  but also heartfelt – and not only makes a great comedy-drama sketch, it feels more like a song from a musical than anything else – I would like to see the whole thing (as it were!).

However, the video does go through the whole story we need to see – including the compulsory visit to the clinic where the unfortunate donor has to perform.  One of the commenters on YouTube said about this part: “as a man who's used those plastic cups in IVF clinics, let me say that section of the song (thin doors, weird reactions from the woman at the desk, etc.) was SPOT ON”.  Another commenter added: “As always a welcome and unexpected pleasure”, which I have to say is pretty much how I feel about this song.

Of course, one of the (many) things that Riki Lindhome is known for is playing Dr. Valerie Kinbott on the Addams Family Netflix show Wednesday.  So, of course it is only natural that she should as a good-looking member of a show she has appeared in to feature as the potential bio-dad.  Step forward Hunter Doohan, who played opposite her in Wednesday as Tyler Galpin, the sheriff’s son who turns out to be a Hyde.  One commenter said: “I know your song is what every woman thinks about when she sees Hunter Doohan, but I cant prove it...“.  Regardless, if Tyler Galpin and Dr. Valerie Kinbott ever had a baby, it would probably come out already in therapy and somehow covered in suspicious claw marks – but they are playing different characters here so let’s just scrub that and watch the video.
