Baby Daddy is an ABC Family television series about Ben Wheeler, a 20-something bartender who is trying to raise his baby daughter Emma while maintaining his bachelor lifestyle. The twist is that Ben didn't realise he was a father until Emma was left outside his apartment door by a one-night-stand. While Ben initially decides to put Emma up for adoption, something that the birth mother also agrees with, he ends up bonding with his daughter and decides to raise her himself.Ben is helped by his older brother Danny, his best friend Tucker, his childhood friend Riley and his overbearing mother Bonnie.Baby Daddy ran for six seasons, with the first episode airing on June 20 2012, and the final and hundredth episode airing on May 22 2017. | |

The Artifact | |
Baby Daddy / int_13d7a65e | comment |
The Artifact: Emma herself on more than a few occasions. As Ben's parenting skills improved and the show switched focus from "crazy childcare hijinks" to character relationships, Emma has been reduced to little more than a prop in a few episodes, and likely would fade out completely if not for the fact that she's in the show title. Ben as a father also falls under this. Later episodes of the show would focus on Danny and Riley's relationship or Bonnie and Tucker's hijinks instead. | |

Baby Daddy / int_1989b0c | comment |
Comic-Book Time: Time is obviously passing, but Emma does not age in in-universe real time. Also possibly a case of Not Allowed to Grow Up since the show is called Baby Daddy. They did switch out the babies between Seasons 1 and 2 because the first set of twins aged out of the role. | |

Oblivious to Love | |
Baby Daddy / int_2848e7d2 | comment |
Oblivious to Love: Two sides of the love triangle. Ben has no clue Riley loves him, and Riley is really clueless about Danny. As of early-mid season 2, the situation has evolved. Ben now realizes he has potential feelings for Riley but puts them aside because he isn't sure enough to put her through that uncertainty. Danny has tried to move on from Riley. While Riley finds out about Danny's feelings and reveals that she returns the sentiment (or is at least, very curious about them) but Danny doesn't know and both are still unable tell each other. | |

Baby Daddy / int_36c64123 | comment |
Gentle Giant: Danny, especially when interacting with Emma◊. Played with in another episode. Ben and Danny are running for building supervisor to overthrow their irritating supervisor, Sondra. The deciding vote comes down to an elderly lady named Mrs. Curtis. After Danny weaves a path of destruction through her tea-set and and fragile figurine-filled apartment, she promises to still vote for them as long as he stops moving around. He grabs the woman in a big "Thank you" hug... and apparently hugs her so hard she drops dead right there! | |

Actor Allusion | |

Actor Allusion: In one episode, while wearing two leather bracelets to hide his "Amy" and "Riley" tattoos, Danny says he think they make him look like a superhero. Derek Theler was in the running for Captain America in the past. In another episode, Riley tries to teach Danny to dance. Chelsea Kane joined the show not long after appearing on Dancing With The Stars. In "Bonnie's Unreal Estate," Ben calls a preacher's nowhere-near-as-sweet-as-she-seems daughter (played by Lucy Hale) a little liar. | |

One Head Taller | |
Baby Daddy / int_4bc2095b | comment |
One Head Taller: A non-romantic example. Many jokes are made about the fact that Derek Theler (Danny) is comically taller than the rest of the cast.◊ The jokes are usually made against Tucker (Tahj Mowry) since he's the shortest, and since Tucker and Danny are sliding into a little bit of a Those Two Guys dynamic. | |

Missing Mom: Emma. So missing even Ben doesn't know - Emma literally shows up on Ben's doorstep one day with a note explaining that Ben's the dad and that's it. As of the end of season 2, she's back. Since Bonnie forgot to file the appropriate paperwork in time, they have to hunt down Emma mom Angela to resign them. She asks to see a photo of Emma, which is enough to make her come to the apartment and declare she wants Emma back. | |

Sibling Triangle: They seem to be setting one up between Ben, Riley, and Danny. Something of a played with version since it's not the tall athletic successful guy (Danny, pro hockey player) that's the main love rival. Instead Danny is the soft spoken Gentle Giant unable to reveal his feelings while it's his less successful quirky brother that the female lead is interested in. | |

Baby Daddy / int_a32334b4 | comment |
Canon Discontinuity: In the second episode, Bonnie and Riley are talking about Mr. Wheeler, Bonnie's husband and Ben and Danny's father. They say his name was Danny Sr., he was completely irresponsible and his love of fireworks left him with no eyebrows and four fingers on his right hand. When he finally see him in Episode 9, his name is Ray and he's fairly well-adjusted with all fingers intact. Potentially justified since Bonnie hated him so much at that point, she might be deliberately smearing him (As far as the name, who knows?) | |

Absurdly Youthful Mother | |
Baby Daddy / int_a7f7e5f4 | comment |
Absurdly Youthful Mother/Improbable Age: The 40 year old Melissa Peterman cast as the mother of two men in their twenties stretches credibility a bit. The show tries to handwave it a little with two things: 1. Riley finding out about Bonnie's first wedding in Vegas when she was 18 shows that Bonnie was something of a wild child and 2. It's possible that Bonnie is a few years older than Peterman, and lying about her age. It was stated in a later episode that Danny was born when Bonnie was still in high school. She says she quickly divorced her first husband and returned to the boy's father, and the boys seem to be close in age. Assuming that she had quickly had Danny at 19 followed by Ben at 20, its not unreasonable to think that she's still in her early 40s, with Danny being 23/24ish and Ben being 22/23ish when the series start. | |

Baby Daddy / int_b58c51d8 | comment |
My Beloved Smother: "Mom has this thing about boundaries... she has none." Said by Ben after Danny revealed that she organized his "love drawer" when she came over. One episode dealt with Ben confronting Bonnie as she slowly takes over caring for Emma. | |

Cute Bruiser: Riley was known for playing field hockey and beating up Ben when they were kids and she's still very much capable of taking down a huge hockey player like Danny. | |

"Friends" Rent Control | |
Baby Daddy / int_fb4c41b4 | comment |
"Friends" Rent Control: Zig-zagged. The apartment is pretty decently-sized by New York standards and has three bedrooms, but looks a little shabby in that "converted factory or warehouse" style. As far as paying the rent, Ben is only a bartender, Danny is probably well-paid as a pro-hockey player, and Tucker has an okay job as a producer on a local talk show but his parents are wealthy so they may have bought him the place. | |
