Quotes
Peter Mitchell:
Where'd you put the baby powder?
Michael Kellam:
Down the hall, I'll get it.
Peter Mitchell:
What'd you put it out there for? We're bathing her in here.
Michael Kellam:
It's just down the hall!
Peter Mitchell:
Well, we're not bathing her in the hall, are we?
Michael Kellam:
Well, maybe we should START, goddammit!

"3 Men and a Baby" is a comedy that's cute and funny. Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg, and Ted Danson star as three bachelors who live together, and who's lives are changed forever when on one particular day a baby infant is left on their doorstep. The three bachelors are now forced unexpectedly to become fathers to the baby. Plenty of wonderful comedy scenes throughout as the three stars go through the frustrations of having to deal with this infant girl in the early stages, then the baby eventually starts to win them over. If only the filmmakers threw out the subplot involving drugs, then this film would've been a great comedy.
