Movie Info

Carefree college student and would-be rock singer Jason Kempler (Brian Austin Green) is forced to do a lot of growing up in a hurry when his disgruntled girlfriend Melanie (Nicholle Tom) shows up at his door with their baby in her arms. Melanie wants nothing to do with the kid, so she dumps him on Jason--who, in his bumbling efforts to become an "instant" dad, not only ends up being booted out of college, but also exiled from his rock band. By the time Jason has grown to love his baby and has adjusted to the rigors of parenthood, in storms Melanie again--this time to demand custody of her son. But don't be too hard on Melanie: the real "heavies" in this piece turn out to be Melanie's insensitive mother (Isabella Hoffman) and Jason's selfish stepmother (Faye Grant). Made for television, Unwed Father was initially seen over ABC on October 12, 1997.
