The show was set to premiere on the [[Oxygen Network]] in 2013, but garnered considerable coverage due to its allegedly stereotypical portrayal of black families and glamorizing of premarital sex and sex with multiple partners. ''All My Babies' Mamas'' was cancelled on January 15, 2013, without airing a single episode.<ref name="TVzap2it-2013-01-15">{{cite web|url=http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2013/01/15/oxygen-cancels-all-my-babies-mamas-in-response-to-online-petition/165504/|title=Oxygen Cancels 'All My Babies' Mamas' in Response to Online Petition|last=Kondology|first=Amanda|publisher=TV By the Numbers|date=January 15, 2013|accessdate=January 15, 2013}}</ref>
