Baby Daddy

I don't have regular TV (cut the cord 2 years ago) and I was searching for a TV show to binge. This has 5 seasons on Netflix so it can't be horrible. Even mediocre shows might have a 2 year life span.

It's your cookie cutter 20-something year olds growing into official adulthood. The cast is really good and they all have genuine chemistry. With one exception.

The mom is the TV-stereotype divorced woman who has no boundaries or friends of her own. And she's slutty and brags about it to her her kids (so gross).

The thing is, she is ALWAYS screaming. To the point that it's a huge turn off. If she took it down just a few octaves, this would get great marks from me.

I'm not sure why a lot of comedians think screaming makes this funnier. Because it doesn't.

Other than the mom, two thumbs up.

When I saw this show advertised on TV I immediately set a series record, knowing that it would be worth watching. When my 6-year-old Sat down and put the pilot on we watched it together. She loved it and so did I because It was so full of heart! You have Ben and his best friend/roommate, Tucker. Then, there is Ben's big bother Danny and their childhood neighbour Riley. She used to have the unfortunate nickname "fat-pants" but has since lost all the weight and is now in law school. Also, she is quietly in love with Ben, and Danny calls her out on It. But, the sad thing is Danny secretly has a thing for her so that poses a future problem. When Ben's ex leaves their 3 month old baby girl, Emma, on his doorstep with a folder that says she is giving the baby up for adoption and needs him to sign off, he has to make a difficult hard life decision. Will he or won't he keep the baby? Um, of course he will keep the baby! This show Is sweet and I can't wait to see what happens.

This started well. The acting and timing was good. The writing was OK. The plot points were good. But now about halfway into the first season and it's fallen into a single sitcom cliché. The 'OMG' I'm in a pickle because of a white lie/miscommunication and/or wild assumption someone else made that I was unable to correct because of all the madcap shennanigans that resulted because I'm a coward and immature blah blah blah blah. Which is really pathetic and irritating. But it's got its moments. I don't see it going on much longer though. The story cant move forward because the characters are all emotionally retarded and it can't stay the same because that would be cripplingly dull. Let's see and hope for the best.

I'm just gonna go right out and say it. This show is not groundbreaking, it is not innovative, it is not spectacular. This is a typical sitcom formula, so if you're looking for something thought-provoking look elsewhere. That being said, I really enjoy this show for what it is. I find myself laughing out loud over the cheesiest jokes and one liners that I'd easily dismiss in any other sitcom. It just somehow works in its own way. Every character is unique to the other, and while the acting isn't oscar worthy, it's enough to keep you invested. If you're looking for something to watch on a Sunday in your PJ's or just something to put on to kill some time with a few laughs, look no further. This is the epitome of comfort tv.

I never write review for TV shows but this one deserves it!

The characters, the story, the acting. Basically everything in this show makes me forget all the things and just laugh my heart out!

So far this is the only show that makes me wanna go home and watch it.

Each character has their own uniqueness in bringing the show alive and it's not boring at all! each episode has its own stuff to laugh at! The only thing that makes me regret is I didn't find it earlier, but fortunately I binge watching and now I'm in the latest episode of the latest season (S05E15)... I feel empty because of have to wait for 1 week for another episode! It's so hilarious and awesome that I re- watch from the season 1 (don't judge)!

I hope the writers and Free form keep the show on! I'm not ready for it to end!

If you need a good laugh this is WHAT YOU NEED :)
