Week two of ABC Family's new original sitcom grew from its premiere!
Bucking the typical trend new series experience, ABC Family's "Baby Daddy" increased over its series debut by 4% in Total Viewers (1.72 million vs. 1.65 million), by 1% in Adults 18-49 (946,000 viewers vs. 935,000 viewers), by 8% in Viewers 12-34 (910,000 viewers vs. 843,000 viewers), and edged slightly higher in Females 12-34 (681,000 viewers vs. 679,000 viewers).
Impressively, "Baby Daddy" ranked as Wednesday's #1 cable telecast in primetime in Women 18-34 (679,000 viewers).
We're really not that surprised because it is a perfect fit for the cable network and we are lacking a comedy today in the same vein as "Boy Meets World", "Step by Step" and "Saved by the Bell".
In addition, "Baby Daddy" ranked as cable's #1 telecast in the half-hour in Adults 18-34, Women 18-34 and Women 18-49, and was the #1 scripted cable telecast in Adults 18-49!
The hit new sitcom soared over its established "Melissa & Joey" lead-in by double-digit percentages across all target demos, including by 21% in Total Viewers (1.72 million vs. 1.42 million), by 15% in Adults 18-34 (598,000 viewers vs. 520,000 viewers), by 13% in Adults 18-49 (946,000 viewers vs. 840,000 viewers) and by 29% in Viewers 12-34 (910,000 viewers vs. 707,000 viewers).
The series retained 100% of its premiere's 0.7 adults 18-49 rating.
