One of the many reasons I don't think Brady is Bobby's father is that Vincent D'Onofrio doesn't look anything like Roy Scheider (g).
And that height has to come from somewhere.

yeah but tony goldwyn doesn't look like he could really be his brother and in reality is actually younger than VDO not three years older like frank to bobby.
I could see them going either way on the series. Personally i'm in the brady camp...it's such a horrible thing to do to the character i know...but that does happen in families: when the husbands away the wife...well you know the rest. Granted the third party (God willing) usually isn't a serial rapist and killer, but it does happen. I think it would be particularly true for the time period as well, because divorce was so taboo and people were left in loveless marriages. There was a situation in a family i know where the husband was sent on a tour and asked a friend to "take care" of his wife and kid and came home to another baby one the way.
The subtle hints we've gotten it seems Frances and her husband's relationship was a volitale one and apparently she just has really crappy taste in men. How Goren ended up as well adjusted as he did is anyone's guess. I also just think it would be such a let down to build up this possibilty and then it turns out that Brady isn't his father. It seems kind of point less to bring it up in the first place. I do think it was evident in the body language between brady and bobby that brady was pretty convinced that he's bobby's father and i agree with most of sfeclitza's observations about their interaction/similarities.
Time will tell.
