MTV’s Date My Mom Was Completely Unhinged 

34K KING WAHOOOO

I love how they used all the epic cinematography to show a guy with less personality than a processed cheese slice standing in an empty parking lot at the beach.

"I can't get behind a guy who doesn't wanna have sex" I see what you did there.

"Are..um.. uh.. are you into..um..sex.. a lot..um?" That woman had not one subatomic particle of hesitation or problem with speaking in the cringiest attempt of a "groovy gangsta" persona, yet had such an ordeal stammering out that question. 🤣

As a gay dude who loves his mom, this hurts. I can’t imagine telling my mom I’m the “village bicycle”🤢

everything else terrible aside, it's weirdly wholesome to see mothers so publicly supportive of their gay sons back in '04 and wild this was aired so casually

As someone who's into movies, cinematography, writing and all that, this show is just...the pinnacle of what I want to strive for in making movies

The second mom reminds me of one of my teachers trying to “be cool” during black history month. 🤦🏽‍♂️🤣🫠

Nothing makes my day more complete than listening to Chris make bad MTV show titles into verbs.

Every character in Big Bang Theory put into one man 😂👌

As a Black guy I wanted to confirm that yes that hip-hop dumpster fire in the second date was not ok

"What if he asks how many sexual partners you've had?" "Infinity doesn't begin to describe it!" Does that mean we've all had sex with that man? It doesn't seem like something I'd do but he said infinity...

The third guy Danny has been one of my best friends since we were kids. I remember when this happened, they forced him to do the dance dance revolution thing against his will. And his mom Janet is the best. LMAO memories

When I read the name of the video, I thought the Reality Show was about guys picking a boyfriend for their moms. The reality was even stupidier (and in the straight episodes: is a guy dating a bunch of girls's moms or is a girl dating the moms of a bunch of guys? Both options sound dreadful)

I can’t believe there’s almost no comments about how creepy these mom son relationships are (fake or real). It’s getting close to inappropriate territory.

it should be a crime to refer to your own child as bootylicious...I can't even cope with this 😂

This is genuinely the funniest show ever holy shit. The weird 2000s fashions, the music choices, the editing, and the weird direction they gave the participants at the end is just… *chef’s kiss*

Please do another one of these, it’s such a beautiful train wreck into my questionable tv choices as a teen. I repressed but now I’m impressed. *wails in emo dinosaur*

As a black woman I’ve never felt SO uncomfortable by someone’s presence and terrible “black” acting like I have by Christine’s bc what the actual fuck was that😭💀

*sees Chris James uploaded a new video, immediately stops what I'm doing to watch it* 👀🤩

“I don’t want to look like a loser” says the guy getting his mom to go on a date for him.

I'm going to need another episode of this show. It really brings back my questionable viewing choices from the early 2000s.

every time chris makes a sigh-joke about not dating, i do a nose-exhale laugh in solidarity of not dating... sims family's doin great tho

That ending crane shot has to be one of the weirdest pieces of television ever. It's not just the shots of him, it's his stance and his frozen smile, as if he thought they were taking his picture and not rolling video.

I really like this style of you revisiting the old MTV stuff. It's a great way for me to go through an episode without suffering through every moment. Instead, that extra time is filled up with hilarious jokes and commentaries by you! I genuinely think you should do more, like how some YTs do read-alongs where they read chunks of a book and have a laugh about it over many YT videos until the book is finished at the end. I think you should find like the top 10 most interesting 'Date My Mum' eps and go through all of them, that sort of thing! It's like watching something for us, getting a hit of nostalgia (which btw, your room raiders ep reminded me I'd seen one with maroon 5 as the rooms being raided lol) interspersed with Chris comedy. Just a thought, but I think it'd help your channel grow :)

I'll always find solace in knowing that as cringy as I may be I've never needed my mom to help me get a date

I feel legitimately bad for the asexual guy - being shamed for his sexuality on a tv show is not the vibe And yes, it's perfectly possible and not "bad" for someone to be asexual and homoromantic

I'm glad people aren't upset about the fact that the guys are gay. I hear so many rude and negative things about gay guys, mostly at work, and it gets old fast.

There is no looking back with nostalgic laughter, here. The level of cringe in this show - the limit does not exist... Also, I would not be sad about missing out on Nick nor his mom. I legit would want my life to end if I had to be around those people. For any amount of time.

Spent way too long figuring this out and I'm way late to the party, BUT: This episode likely came out in 2006 Someone uploaded a video claiming to be a relative of Daniel, the third guy. The video is a recording from DirectTV (only mention this because I had it growing up and I remember the idea of recording shows blowing my tiny mind) and includes the commercials, including one for the then-upcoming Mission Impossible 3 which came out May of 2006 (among many others which, from what I can tell, first started airing in 2006). They say it was the final episode of the show in the video description, and this is backed up by Wikipedia (basically the only source at this point). Also found out the show supposedly had 4 seasons, yet they're weirdly numbered 1, 2, 3, and 5. Don't know where 4 went, don't think I want to. and yes, I spent way too long finding this info for a throwaway line regarding the dude doing a Napoleon Dynamite reference.

I like how the freaky mom is supportive.

Woah I totally forgot about this show. MTV really made any thing they were pitched didn't they? Please do an episode on Yo Momma lol

When Chris sits in the green chair he becomes Christopher.

The laugh after 14:55 has me convinced everyone is reading off of cue cards.

Bro you seriously have great content with all these old cringy shows😂😂

*"A GaY ViRgIn, IvE NeVeR HeArD Of ThAt"*

I am unironically delighted he’s wearing a fall out boy shirt. And it is genuinely sweet they had gay couples on this in 2004 and that their moms supported him. How nice.

Chris, the delivery of the joke around 8:00 was beautiful. The way you drew it out and checked on the channel, chefs kiss my man. Literally everything was perfect, your body language was even great, the swallow of pain right before checking on the channel and everything. The structure and acting was enough for me to just want to comment and give you props for it, good job my man

Hey, what do you know? MTV actually CAN make a gay episode of a dating where the main guy isn’t super-effeminate and the guys he’s going to date aren’t all jocks. Weird.

I remember being so annoyed by this show when I was in a teenager - presumably the targets audience.

This is actually a decent idea for a show! Not to sound shallow but when I date someone I generally look at their parents to get an idea of how they'll look as we age....not that looks mean everything!

This video had me dying the whole time. The episode of the show was already BONKERS but your commentary and imitating these dudes was so f*cking funny.

I love your commentary, you can make anything hilarious.

Her: she's probably thinking about other women Me: *b roll footage of boy on the beach plays on loop in my head*

"I don’t date……" Bro I feel you my dude. I’ve given up on it nowadays. 😂🤣 we’re not the only ones broski!

God has returned 👏🏻 Getting in before the copyright strike..

I've been binge-watching your channel for about two days now and my entire body is legitimately sore from how hard I've been laughing. Thank you for unlocking these memories that I somehow successfully repressed.

The first guy is what happens when you discover the club scene and get way too into crystal meth!

11:28 "WOW" "hey... did ya maybe wanna... say something else, too?" "No! I'm good!" "... ok..." 😂😂😂

I have to give you some credit. I never sould have watched these shows myself, because they are hard to sit through lol. However, your ability to sift through the garbage to filter out the parts worth seeing, as well as your commentary and jokes make it actually bearable. You are doing the Lord's work, my friend.

This brings back memories. Well done Chris. I can't wait to see what you have in store for us. I am hoping you'll watch MTV's "Singled Out" soon.

0:56 Please don't remind the Hatman that I still owe him money.

-Walmart Criss Angel's Mom: "What should I tell him if he asks how much sex you have?" -Walmart Cris Angel: "Just tell him I need a Colostomy Bag because I can no longer hold my bowels...you know, from the sex. Got it? Yeeeaaahhh👍"

We need a deep dive series into this show

Dude in the green shirt at the beginning looks like a Romulan. "IT'S A DAAATE!"

....I demand reparations due to the 2nd mom and I'mma find some Mongolian Americans to see what compensation they want. But seriously I remember this show solely cause of how gross the premise was as one dude kissed one of the moms 💀

In highschool, the only thing my sister and I could agree on was watching the cringetopia that was early 2000s MTV reality television. It was a ritual of ours to stop what we were doing once we got home from school, and park ourselves in front of the living room TV to watch this and the other shows just like it. Good times.

I love that freaky Josh just out of nowhere signs “I love men” and it’s never brought up

These MTV ones from the 2000s was my childhood. As a child of a single mother who worked all day. I'd park my ass on the couch smoke some weed and watch these horrible shows. The only thing that made them more outrageous was the spring break additions

8:10 dude this is you. None can’t replicate this energy so stick to yourself brother I love this channel!

Chris you need to do the show exposed where they go on dates with lie detectors and at the end they get told all the lies they told

I've actually taken around 15 benadryl and it's crazy. You trip hard af, and then later you get restless legs like crazy. Did that almost 15 years ago in high school.

The saddest thing about this is that I could actually picture my mom acting the almost exact same way as these ladies if she were in this situation. Except she’d have a lot less enthusiasm about me probably. …okay this just got sadder. 😂

Is it just me or was nearly every line in this episode scripted? Felt faker than usual

Ok, but was he a Britney guy or a Christina guy? We need answers!

Keep up the awesome work dude,sucks the chris angel video was taken down

“My son can kick your ass” and do more to it too. The 2nd mom didn’t want her son to be with a guy she still believed he was straight. MTV shows were just a montage of meme-ery you’d watch with your zit faced friends with acne commercials in between

Totally forgot about this show! Thanks for this vid, been a long week. If voting is at play here, I'd like more, please and thank you. 😊

Your the first RU-vidr I’ve ever watched where I didn’t want to skip past your ads😭😭so funny , very attractive, great content I can’t wait to see more and watch what I haven’t. Ive been having a blast watching ur vids lol they really make my day😭❤️

14:53 his lil shifty eyes 😂 I need that as a gif

Who.... Who talks like this with their parents? I'm 47. I've literally laughed at my dad when he tried grounding me when I was 22.... I STILL don't talk to either parent like any of these people... Wtf😳

Congrats on all the new subs man, your videos are comedy. “Maybe I should just go back to.... cooking shit in coffee pots.” LMAO this shit had me rolling

I love how this felt totally not weird when it first aired….but I think its also the same time period that ‘stacy’s mom’ song came out, so it was a real different era.

I’m so mad at myself I didn’t get to watch the mindfreak episode before It got taken down by RU-vid

wait, so why aren't the dudes just going on dates? Why are the moms here? It's the early 2000s so I'm assuming it's because they were afraid of backlash from "concerned" parents or something idk.

I am single handedly responsible for this channel finally getting the likes and views it deserves. You’re welcome Chris. Keep the dream alive.

I have not laughed so hard in a long time.. the whole crane shot commentary literally had me in 😂😂😂.

That 2nd mom makes sure to mention her other kids cause she's ashamed of this one

Chris “what does this guy have to be on to get that startled?” The guy- “woooooo!!!!” Chris “ah, coke.” Hahaha

Hey man, just found your content yesterday and I gotta say I've been loving it! Having to quarantine and I'm literally binging your channel - something I haven't done in years. Top notch content and you are legitimately funny. Its dope to watch your vids from 2020 having 1200 subs to seeing you have 35k. Keep up the good work!

I was listening as I did chores and I looked up to see those black soles of mom's feet in that beautiful vintage car. First time I've gasped out loud in horror - and I watch true crime all the time. 🤮🤮🤮

Thank you for all these videos of old MTV shows, I swear growing up it felt like a fever dream watching most of these. I still can't wrap my head around how some of them managed to stay on air as long as they did.

You are soooooooooo funny!! I really just want to be besties so you can make me laugh all the time haha. Keep doing what you're doing, love it!

The first guy looks way too much like Kevin from shameless 💀💀💀 watch him in Reba prior to the beard they look so similar if you told me that was him fr id believe you 💀

That one mom trying to sound "ghetto" makes me want to jump off a cliff holy shit btw congratz on 34k!!

Maybe I'm stupid, but it litterally took me the entire run time of this video to fully comprehend the concept of this show.

" What does he have to be on to get that spooked ? " "Oh ok ....coke " 🤣😂🤣

This episode is beyond cringe its like a bad perm on a rainy day, uncomfortable and obvious.

2:40 I've never related more to a youtuber

guy going on the dates with the moms looks like Davie from The Monkees mixed with Ace Ventura :P

The guy at 03:21 wants his family known as modeled after the Bundys. He means Ted Bundy, not Al Bundy.

Had coolest Mom ever all my friends said so. She put us all on the pill!! THIS SHEET embaraseses me

Jeremy reminds me of Jorma Taccone's character in Hot Rod. Attire, delivery, haircut. I almost feel like they saw this episode back in the day and based the character off of him. 🤣

I’m The guy that won in the end :) also I’m still friends with Jeremy ❤️

I know this day and age you’re supposed to accept the gays, and I do. But I still don’t like em

So what you're saying is that it only takes 15 benadryl to see the black hat man....

I really like the match at the end…they look like they go together. The other two guys were not fitting in with main guy’s look.

I never felt so much second hand embarrassment in my life

All these old mtv dating shows were the most awkward stupid shows ever!?

Is that not Vegan Teacher talking “ghetto”? I know the age makes no sense but I swear I thought it was her 😂
