Telly’s Take

While it already has a decent-sized syndication package and Baby Daddy’s ratings have dropped from year to year, this sitcom is still one of Freeform’s better performers. Thus, it was renewed for season six. Since this TV series is a half-hour sitcom, it is cheaper to produce than the typical hourlong drama, so its fate could depend on the success of Freeform’s pilot season. Because it’s still too early in the season to assess whether Baby Daddy will be cancelled or renewed for season seven on Freeform, I’ll keep an eye on the ratings and update this page, periodically.
