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.
I think that it would only be far to actually produce season 7 and at least give the Wheelers and the rest all a proper send off. Let us see what baby boy Wheeler was named and if Ben and Elle actually make it….. This makes me not want to support you station or watch anything else you produce. What the sense in wasting my time watching a show that you won’t give a proper ending season?
I agree with you. I loved this show. I laughed so much.
I would love to see what,would happen next please bring season,7,back
It is one of the funniest sitcom I have watched in a long time.
PLEASE DO NOT LET THIS SITCOM GO, THE WHEELER ARE A TYPICAL AMERICAN FAMILY HAVING FUN I WATCHED ALL 6 SEASONS ON NETFLIX.
Yeah, and because it is like a real actual family, with the real issues a real family face it won’t get brought back. Think about switched at birth, they started dealing with Depression, PTSD and racial issues and it went out the window. All these people care about is the ratings. We might not ever know the name of baby Wheeler, or if Ben and Elle (Elizabeth) would ever actually make it. How sad. Loved watching even binge watched it on Netflix so I would be caught up for this season and now another show I fell in love with… Read more »
Funniest sitcom please bring it back!!
Please bring it back so we can see what happens with L
THERE MUST BE A SEASON SEVEN!!!!! i’m crying I HAVE TO KNOW!!!
Definitely needs to be renewed… one of the best and funniest sitcoms I’ve ever watched
Please bring baby daddy back it was such an inspiring and good show please bring it back
Please please bring this show back for a seventh season. So many unanswered questions. The final episode of season 6 just felt like an end of season episode not the end of the series. Please reconsider Freeform!
you HAVE to have one last season at least like a good show has it has to tie the ends up before it can be done ylu can’t leave an open ending just PLEASE DO ONE LAST SEASON THIS IS MY SHOW FOR 5 YEARS PLEASE
A season seven should be the perfect ending for a great tv show. I myself still want to see what happens with Ben and Elle. And Tucker has to have a baby. I think that the last episode’s closing scene has to be Ben and Elle getting married with everybody will be there.
This is what I thought
I have so many questions only season seven can answer! There needs to be a season seven!!!
The 6th season was great. I’ve relate to the baby daddy show. A season 7 would make a great ending. Ben still needs to get married with elle. We don’t know Danny and Riley baby name. Bonnie needs to gain closure letting her boys go and Tucker needs to be the last one to have a baby. Last episode shows all 3 boys holding there kids.
U under stand me , I have cried so much , it would be the best to have the show back , its my fav showso much pain !!!!!!!!!
I need season seven! What happens with Ben and Elle?! What’s the name of Riley and Danny’s son?! What about Tucker and Sondra? So many unanswered questions!!!
