Baby Daddy
Time to Dad up.
Created by Dan Berendsen
On ABC Family, Freeform
A warm, lighthearted sitcom about found family and unexpected parenthood, built on ensemble chemistry and the reassurance of weekly domestic comedy.
Baby Daddy follows Ben, a young man in his early 20s living the life of a bachelor in New York City with his buddy, Tucker, and his brother, Danny. Their lives are turned upside down when they come home one day to find a baby girl left on the doorstep by an ex-girlfriend of Ben's. After much deliberation, Ben decides to raise the baby with the help of his friends and his protective and sometimes over-bearing mother, Bonnie, and his close female friend, Riley.
