Many cartoon strips have found success with a leap to television audiences. Garfield, Dilbert, and Peanuts were probably an inspiration when Warner Bros. opted to produce the Baby Blues animated series. Premiering on the WB Network in 2000, the series was pulled after eight, low-rated episodes. Years later Adult Swim picked up the show airing the remaining five episodes but, the show was again dropped before releasing any of the thirteen-episode second season.

Reception on the Baby Blues animated adaptation was almost as bad as the ratings. The most prominent complaint involving the changes from the original material. Zoe, the elder child, was made an infant for the show, dropping younger sister, Hammie. The inclusion of wacky next-door neighbours was considered television-cliché, and critics slammed the series as an insult to the comic’s loyal readers.
