This is a load off my mind. I was just watching the Emma’s Birthday/ Street Fair episode and it gave the distinct impression that the show was ending. Happy endings and moving away usually says goodbye. I’m glad that this is not the case.
Absolutely! Was devastated when Melissa and Joey was cancelled. Might stop watching anything on this network, if this was also cancelled.
A huge fan! Please it going. I watch it repeatedly on Netflix!
I would love for this show to go on forever! (Although I know this is not possible) I discovered Baby Daddy on Netflix and cannot get enough. I am single parent myself and I love the idea of so many people supporting Ben in this amazing journey of parenthood! I would love to get to be apart of the studio audience! Please keep up the great work! Keeps me laughing!
Yaaa!!!! I love, love, LOVE this show!!!!
Yaaa! Can’t wait for season 6! I love, love, LOVE this show!!!!!
