It’s lullaby time. The Baby Daddy TV show has been cancelled after six seasons on Freeform. In a couple of Instagram posts, co-executive producer Heidi Clements made it clear the family comedy was drawing to a close and THR has since confirmed there will be no season seven.
The Baby Daddy TV series first premiered on what was then ABC Family, in June of 2012. Its sixth and final season will conclude on May 22nd, with the show’s 100th episode. The Freeform series stars Jean Luc Bilodeau, Melissa Peterman, Derek Theler, Chelsea Kane, and Tahj Mowry, with Kayleigh Harris and Sura Harris sharing the role of little Emma.
