I understand it\u2019s the return of\nthe baby mama!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tahj Mowry: Yeah [laughs]. The baby mama will be on \u201cBaby\nDaddy.\u201d It\u2019s going to be a good one. I\u2019m really excited for the fans to see it.\nThere will be some closure in this episode. I feel like fans have been waiting\nto find out certain situations and figure out the whole love triangle thing. I\nthink after this episode [fans] will be pleasantly surprised. It\u2019s just a fun\nepisode to watch. It\u2019s equally as funny as it is dramatic, and I think it\u2019s\nreally cool when a sitcom really goes there with the drama sometimes because\nthat\u2019s real life. Life isn\u2019t always funny. We wanted to bring some drama into\nthis last episode and leave people hanging a little bit and get them a little\nmore excited for Season 3 because they\u2019re just going to have to tune in to\nSeason 3 even more. So yeah, I\u2019m excited to see it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do we know how\nlong fans will have to wait until Season 3?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I don\u2019t know if we have the exact ate yet, but probably\nthe middle of next year, I believe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is the most\nfun part about playing your character, Tucker?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s a lot of things I love about playing Tucker. Probably the most fun is just being able to. I\u2019ve sort of been able to create the character and find out what makes him tick. I\u2019ve been able to create this person, so when I get to work it\u2019s like jumping into a completely different person because he\u2019s such a character. You just gotta go there with Tucker \u2026 You just have to go for it. It\u2019s just fun to go to work and just play. It\u2019s like being at recess all day with this job. Just the stuff that I get to say. He has no filter. He doesn\u2019t think before he speaks. He\u2019s very sarcastic\u2014like the most sarcastic human being on the planet. It\u2019s just fun because I\u2019m not like that at all. I like to think before I speak and I\u2019m pretty well-mannered [laughs], I believe, and Tucker, the things he says to his mom and to women in general, it\u2019s just like &#8216;What are you saying? Who says those things?!&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Some of your fans\nsent in questions for you. Katie wanted to know if comedy is your favorite\ngenre to act in or do you want to delve into other areas as well?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, comedy is something I\u2019ve been doing my whole life,\nso I do have that love for it. So it\u2019s just like being at home. I just love it.\nI love playing and creating different comical moments, but I\u2019m a huge horror\nfan. I love horror movies, so I\u2019d just love to get a few horror movies under my\nbelt. That would be amazing. I just love being scared, and I feel like it would\nturn out really well because I\u2019d actually be really scared while filming it. That\nwould just be awesome. I definitely am going to be getting into more film\nanyway, so comedy will always be there, but definitely looking to jump into\nsome other genres and give people something a little different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tiffany and her\nfriends wanted to know how you\u2019ve managed to stay grounded and not fall into\nany traps some other child stars have struggled with.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think it\u2019s all about my upbringing. I have great\nparents and I have great people surrounding me, and it\u2019s all about staying\nhumble and just realizing this is a job. This is my job. It\u2019s not everything.\nThere\u2019s family. There\u2019s your friends. For me, my faith. That stuff keeps me\ngrounded. I have a really strong group of best friends and they\u2019ll get on me\nreally quick if I was ever not humble. They\u2019d be like, \u201cNo. Come back down to\nearth.\u201d I think it\u2019s because of my parents, for sure. They kept me in regular\nschool. I played sports. I kept a normal lifestyle. They don\u2019t allow me to get\ncaught up in the \u201cscene\u201d so to speak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Any plans on\nworking with your sisters, Tia and Tamera, on a project anytime soon?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, not anytime soon. There\u2019s nothing that\u2019s about to\nhappen or anything, but we definitely love working with each other. I would\ndefinitely love to do something now that we\u2019re older. We did a movie called\n\u201cSeventeen Again\u201d for Showtime. Fans loved seeing us together in a movie, so\nthat\u2019s definitely something I would love to recreate. It\u2019s so fun working with\nthem because its just like being at our parents\u2019 house hanging out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do you ever catch\nyourself watching rerun episodes of \u201cFull House\u201d late at night and see yourself\non TV as a kid?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[Laughs] Oh, man! I seem to catch, accidentally, episodes of \u201cSmart Guy,\u201d but my friends send me the best \u201cFull House\u201d gifs of me\u2014these Tumblr gifts\u2014and they crack me up. I\u2019m like, &#8216;Where did you find that?&#8217; \u2026 \u201cFull House\u201d was a great show to be a part of. There are some hard-core fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What I\u2019ve been finding out lately, Melissa [Peterman] is\nactually the one who told me. Her son, her 6-year-old son, he just started\nwatching \u201cFull House\u201d and he finally ended up putting it together that I was\nTeddy., so when he comes to set, he\u2019s super starstruck when he sees me because\nhe\u2019s watching \u201cFull House\u201d and he gets it that I\u2019m older, but he\u2019s just like,\n\u201cOh my gosh. You\u2019re Teddy.\u201d It\u2019s the cutest thing I\u2019ve seen in my life. It\u2019s\ncool that the show has different generations of kids who fall in love with it.\nThat\u2019s kind of cool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The Season 2 summer\nfinale of \u201cBaby Daddy\u201d airs Wednesday, Sept. 4, at 8:30 p.m. ET\/PT on ABC\nFamily.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The return of the baby mama and what\u2019s ahead on the summer finale.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":606,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-605","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-msn-entertainment","category-portfolio"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lieshiaong-sintzel.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/605","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lieshiaong-sintzel.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lieshiaong-sintzel.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lieshiaong-sintzel.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lieshiaong-sintzel.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=605"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/lieshiaong-sintzel.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/605\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":872,"href":"https:\/\/lieshiaong-sintzel.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/605\/revisions\/872"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lieshiaong-sintzel.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/606"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lieshiaong-sintzel.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=605"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lieshiaong-sintzel.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=605"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lieshiaong-sintzel.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=605"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
