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.

“DADDY’S GIRL”

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.
WE NEED A 7th SEASON I have to know about Ben and Elle and what’s the name of Danny and Riley’s baby?! They have already started the story line into the seventh season all they need to do is make it!!!
Seventh season most definitely! The show, I don’t believe should’ve been cancelled! Me and my 21 yr. old daughter enjoyed watching that together along with another freeform show that was cancelled after the sixth season.
Freeform, you disappoint me and the viewers of my household!
Baby daddy needs a Seventh Season
Ben as finally found the girl of his dreams and we need to see where his relationship with her goes …The series can’t end in this way.
Needs. Another season what about Elle
I just watched Riley and Danny fall in love with their first kid and we didn’t even find out the name and from day one I’ve watched Ben struggle to find a girl that he AND Emma will love and he finally found Elle and I want to see at least where the goes !! I’d even be happy with a few episodes of a 10-years in the future type epilogue
Ben finally found Elle and it would be nice to see where that goes. It should have gone for another season or 2.
CONTINUE…. Ben just found his girl., Riley n Danny just had the please bring season 7
It should continue! Ben just found his girl, Brad has been freed from jail, Riley and Danny just had the baby, we don’t even know what the name is
I’m very sad to hear that there will not be a season 7. I enjoyed the laugher and story line. Thank you for such an amazing show. Please bring back season 7.
I hate that there isn’t going to be a season 7! All of us faithful fans don’t get to know what happens to Ben and El! We’ve gotten to see all of his passed relationships and how he managed to make them end. We should get to know if she’s the one! They finally meet and now we’ll never know if he spent all that time looking for her for nothing.
The show should have gone on for one more season & gave it a definitive happy ending to which it could’ve been brought back alive with a spin of another character or fast forward to make it like how I met ur mother. I watch it on Netflix & love it since I live the Baby daddy life , single dad with a baby girl it so sad it’s done.
Most people seem to watch it more on Netflix, maybe they could’ve helped renew it since it’s such a big company.
We should totally try to see how to get Netflix to pick it up. It cannot end the way it did!
Me and my daughter have been watching baby daddy since it started and we are thoroughly depressed and disappointed at the news that they will no longer be renewing for a 7th season. We think a lot more could have been explored with the wheeler family. They will be missed.
I love this show–it is so hilarious and fun! I can’t imagine that freeform can replace it with something better. The problem isn’t the show, it’s that people aren’t watching freeform. I have cable, but forget about this channel like many others and then end up bing watch this show on Netflix. Such a shame….
im all the way from Malaysia and Ive been watching it on netflix and torrent downloads all this time. PLS BRING THEM BACK.
