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.

What do you think? Is the Baby Daddy TV series ending at the right time, or should it have been renewed for a seventh season? Sound off, in the comments.
It was rushed, poorly planned and directed
Worse episode to date. Freeform, you are trash. Done watching you joke of a station. GB!
I would like to see Bonnie get pregnant, Elle and Ben together, Riley and Danny have twins next, Saundra and Tucker together, Sandra get tonsil surgery and her voice change for the better…….. so many ideas.
There is so much garbage on TV and there are so few fun, good shows and this was one of the last few. Please bring back Baby Daddy for season 7 and more!
My hunny and I love this show.. very sad that it was cancelled. I loved all the characters.
Please bring it back at least for season 7! We have to know what happens with Ben and Ele!
Don’t delete the show. U can make this show long and interesting. Trust me. Just add more creative juice
Renew it!!! Baby daddy is an amazing show. Many of my friends and myself watch it. All the show needs is some dramatic twist and turns. Like someone els gets randomly pregnant like El. Maybe even have Emma’s Mom come back into the picture to fight with Ben.
I love this show. Sad to see it cancelled. Would have love to see Ben settle down already. 🙁
Should have be renewed 🙁 Such a cute show. I laugh at it everytime

It would be nice if they give the show up to another network if they don’t want to continue it. Finish it at least
I think it should of kept going. I looked forward to each new episode. Please find a way to bring it back.
I love this show ! I hope you rethink on canceling it .. it’s still so many un answered questions and curious situations… this show can go really far !
