MILF Manor

Don't misunderstand. Qualitatively it is terrible show. A 3. But it is so over the top, its fun to laugh at it. So 5 whole stars!

To understand, let me start by asking "What if someone intentionally made a TV show so bad, they were sure no one in their right mind would watch it, Then everyone does?" Get your minds out of the rock bottom bedrock folks. This is filmed in Mexico and shown on TLC, so no real Oedipal or Jocasta situations are ever going to be shown or make the light of day if such a thing does happen. Still, after the first episode I checked the social media and at least some really are mothers and sons. EEP!

OK then. Normally I don't watch "reality shows" as they are mostly staged interactions and no real risks. This show starts boring enough: Older women are looking for a "connection" with young men, the "reality show" term for short term sex or less likely, a relationship. So far, meh. Who cares?

Then the TWIST: The pool of young men they must select from are the a son of each of the MILFs.

The humor comes from all the ensuing cringe: * Mom's trying to entice the other young men, in front of their sons, while warning their own sons of the women they don't approve of or worse suggest might be an OK pick. LOL * Young 20 something males of varying (im)maturity, trying to saound mature, use pick up lines and strategies that may work on women their own age, but these older women? Worse, the sons sleep with the moms in different beds of the same bedroom. So trying to "connect" with their woman of choice presents "challenges". Hilarity ensues. Finally, sons trying to prevent their own mom's from "connecting" with other "men" that they don't approve of.

* There are "reality" contests where moms and sons win by knowing each other's "secrets" or weird contests where the least successful person causes themselves AND their familial relation to be expelled from the running, thus encouraging both moms and sons to be "players" LOL.

Reality tv has finally hit the lowest low - mothers between 40 and 60 encouraged to get intimate with kids the age of their sons.

Whats next? Dad's shacked up with their teen daughters?

All those who scratch their heads at how divisive our current politics and society is right now need only to glimpse at what immorality/reality tv is getting away with. The hope is so few people will watch this that the galling lack of morals won't sink in to the general public and that whoever at TLC came up with this disgusting taboo trash is fired.

This endless trend of putting people in a fake luxury backdrop and watching them commit sin is getting old.

The whole premise is disgusting, sexist, and hypocritical. Completely perverse. Not only is it truly gross, but all the contestants seem to be suffering from some kind of brain injury. The collective IQ is dangerously low.

The real kicker is, it's also poorly made and extreme boring. The opening credits is something out of Saturday Night Live. Music cues and interstitials are lazy and cheap. Even the editing and story production is subpar. Think about how much time and money went into producing, shooting, and editing. This is the best they could do. Someone needs to be fired. There has to be better minds out there to create reality tv for TLC.

Since everyone is so utterly vapid and charmless there's not even any good drama or situations that usually make trashy television somewhat enjoyable.

The whole incest gimmick is all over every episode. As if the show didn't get it's oedipal obsession across by the obvious and clunky concept for the show, they have to hit you over the head with constant incestual conversations and activities.

It's truly a poorly made show all-around.

The latest reality TV trend has reached an unprecedented low, as mothers aged between 40 and 60 are being encouraged to engage in intimate acts with their sons of similar age. This begs the question, what's next? Will we see fathers involved with their teenage daughters? The divisive state of our current politics and society can be seen in the immorality of reality TV. It's concerning that this type of taboo content is being produced, and it's hoped that the general public will boycott it to prevent the normalization of such morally repugnant behavior. Those responsible for creating this disgusting trash on TLC should be held accountable and removed from their positions. The constant repetition of putting individuals in an artificial, glamorous setting to watch them commit sins is becoming tiresome.

Not sure who thought this was a good "social experiment" but it really isn't.

Don't bother wasting your time.

I'm all for the milf life and women living their best lives and dating younger men.

All for younger men dating older women.

This however is depraved.

I was intrigued at first thinking it would be playful but tasteful. Its most certainly not that.

It got creepy during one of the games.

Imagine if dad's were feeling up their daughters.? People would be outraged but some how this is ok?

We stopped watching it I wanted to throw up!

The "cast" leave you feeling and thinking what tf???
