Baby Talk is an American sitcom that aired on ABC from March 8, 1991 to May 8, 1992, as part of ABC's TGIF lineup. Loosely based on the Look Who's Talking films, the show was developed by Ed. Weinberger and produced by Columbia Pictures Television.
Following negative critical reviews for the series' first season, the cast and crew was almost entirely replaced between seasons, including Mary Page Keller assuming the lead role previously played by Julia Duffy. Prior to the second season beginning, new cast addition Scott Baio said: "I did a show for 11 years (Happy Days) that never ever got a good review. So we hope you guys will love it, but we're just going to do the best we can, and it's what the people like that's going to stay on". The series was cancelled after two seasons.
