As seen on cnn.com "LOS ANGELES, California (Hollywood Reporter) -- Scott Baio will be back on VH1 with another season of "Scott Baio Is 45 ... and Single" and a new set of issues -- this time, over impending fatherhood. Scott Baio, who admits commitment issues, will have a whole new set to look forward to next season. The first season of the reality show found the former "Charles in Charge" and "Happy Days" star struggling with commitment issues. The finale, which aired at 10:30 p.m. Sunday, showed Baio wrapping his two-month boot camp with his life coach, Doc Ali. At his "graduation party," Baio committed to his relationship with girlfriend Renee by asking her to get married. Renee, in turn, surprised Scott by revealing that she's pregnant. The new season goes production in the fall and is slated to run with nine episodes (six half-hours and three hourlong installments). The first season, which debuted July 15, averaged 1.3 million total viewers, according to Nielsen Media Research. It also averaged 1 million in the adults 18-49 demo, ranking it among the top 10 basic cable programs in its time slot." The odd thing about the article, is that I didn't actually hear a marriage proposal. All I heard was Scott's admission that he was ready to get married. I guess the proposal came after filming ended.

I watched the final episode of season one. (spoiler below….) Scott permits Doc Ali to speak with Renee so that she can get to know her. You can see some of this interview on VH1’s website, as well as a joint meeting of Scott/Renee and Doc Ali about their relationship (Scott likes to listen to Rush Limbaugh and watches O’Reilly Factor each day). Scott makes admission to Renee at his ‘graduation party’ [from life coaching 8 week course], that he is ready to get married. In my opinion, this was in no way a revelation, or at the very least a proposal. He seemed to have the expression and appearance of a scolded child kicking pebbles in the street versus saying something from the heart and felt with every fiber of his being. After he announced his readiness, Renee whispered to him that she was pregnant. He seemed to have a ‘deer caught in the headlights’ sort of gaze. There seemed to be no joy or enthusiasm for the revelation. At one point we see Johnny V. at the gate with flowers in his hand. I wonder if some producer called him, or one of Scott’s friends, advising that there was a party taking place. We never see if he enters or makes contact with any guests. The guests appear to be those that Scott talked with during the course of the first season, including the old girlfriend he brought the bucket of chicken to and her daughter, Julie McCullough (from Growing Pains), the comedianne he dated, his buddy Steve, Doc Ali, and others. So, while I hardly believe them to have gotten engaged at the party, it is possible he proposed between the conclusion of the party and today. (if they are engaged at all). From everything I have read on other websites, Renee is pregnant and due sometime in November 2007. I think the show was filmed throughout 2006 b/c during the trip to Palm Beach, Scott comments about a piece of framed art on a senior couple’s wall. He remarks something about it being twenty years next month…which would have made the art, commemorating June 2006, therefore, having filmed that particular segment in May 2006. I think that over the course of season one, Scott felt bullied by Doc Ali, like he was being required to participate in all these silly activities to determine if he was ready for a life change/commitment. He whined at every turn. But yet, he actually completed the assignments. It seems that the whiner in him was bested by his choice for change and [Doc Ali’s criticism]. He seemed much happier and himself, if you can call it that, when he was hanging out with his male friends. Overall, I wonder if he is really committed to being with one person [the same one person] for the rest of his life... I try to be optomistic and hopeful and hope he’ll do the right thing by Renee, at minimum to be a father to her child if he doesn’t create a permanent family with her. Some people just aren’t cut out for marriage and lifelong commitment, not that there’s anything wrong with that!!!! I wonder if Scott is forcing himself to this inevitable conclusion of a committed relationship. Although he seemed to genuinely care for Renee, there didn’t appear to be the semblance of ‘in love’ that I’d hoped for. Then again, supposedly they’d been dating for more than a year and the ‘in love’ part may have already worn off. It is possible that he’s just trying to come to the conclusion of what the majority of society dictates and does…marry. Versus truly embracing the idea and leaving some of his old patterned behaviors behind. Apparently, there will be a season two. I wonder if this couple will succumb to the reality/scripted couple’s show curse. (Britney/Kevin; Dave/Carmen; Danny/Gretchen; Nick/Jessica). It just seems the public limelight does some of these relationships in!

This guy is way too full of himself and a poor candidate for a husband if he is anything in real life like he is on this show. Renee should run, not walk, away from this relationship. I just read the above post that she is pregnant. Not smart, Renee.

I'm betting he'll cheat on her. Hard for an old dog to break bad habits.

Scott Baio is 46... and married. The former Happy Days star and legendary bachelor finally tied the knot with longtime girlfriend Renee Sloan in a rooftop ceremony at a luxury high-rise Saturday in Los Angeles. The small religious ceremony was filmed for an episode for the second season of VH1's reality show Scott Baio is 45... and Single, which premieres next month. Among the attendees: Sloan's 18-year-old daughter by a previous relationship, and according to sources, the newest member of the Baio family: the couple's newborn daughter, whose name has not yet been released.

For the kids' sakes, I hope it works. For Scott's sake, I hope he find happiness. :-)

I saw Scott on Ellen the other day. He said he was speechless being a father. He just seems to be glowing as a new dad. It was cute. He seems to be in love with his new wife, too. Of course, time will tell....

I caught the new show this morning. I'm sure having the baby has changed him immensely but while she's pregnant, he's just not there yet.

i dont know who edits this show but they need to be replaced. about half way thru they have one of those cartoon like segments where scott talks about how when he was a kid he tried to go down to the nyc sewers with some kid. anyway scott says that his dad spanked him for this and it was the only time he had been spanked. later in the show scott and some old hs friend were talking to the guys mom and scott said that one time the shot bottle rockets thru the window and he ended up with a red butt. someone needs to pay better attention to the editing

The way I understood that segment Oregonguy was that the FRIENDS Mom spanked their butt, not his Dad. Him saying that before about the one time his Dad spanked him was true. That's the way I took that all to mean anyway.

This thread had all but dropped off the page, hadn't it, Escapee? I loved the show when the baby was born! Scott was completely in love with that baby, no doubt about it. I'm happy he finally "got it." And yes, whatshisname from Wonder Years is a true friend of Scott's. So is the guy who was there at the hospital with them. That other guy is just hopeless!

The previews show them home with the baby this week. Her having the baby this past week was not the finale.
