TLC recently announced their newest reality show MILF Manor, with the teaser trailer and a few key details. What was revealed in the announcement was enough to form a pretty clear picture of what viewers can expect, but also left room for some speculation. The promise of a shocking twist on MILF Manor left the trailer on a cliffhanger.
Available To Stream On Apple TV
The TLC network is home to several hit reality TV franchises such as 90 Day Fiancé and Sister Wives, and is known for its sometimes unusual television premises. Some are so strange, that fans can’t believe these TLC shows actually exist. With a premiere date set for January 15, MILF Manor is positioned to be one of the channel’s most outrageous shows yet. The trailer has already inspired awe and ire among viewers.
What TLC Viewers Can Expect To See On MILF Manor
MILF Manor promises a “dating experience like none other,” and the trailer, posted by TLC, displayed the cast of older women ranging in age from 40 to 60 years old, and strutting their stuff in the villa. According to People, the show will feature a competition aspect with challenges in each episode testing the women’s connections with the cast of younger men. Time will tell whether this blending of reality TV subgenres will result in authentic, lasting connections and if MILF Manor will become one of TLC’s fan favorite shows.
The “hot moms” on MILF Manor declared their desire for more energy in the bedroom, as a series of chiseled abs flashed across the screen. This indicates that the show will be a hot and heavy series like Netflix’s Too Hot To Handle and Hulu’s Love Island. When the young men were revealed, however, the older women were visibly stunned and not in a very positive way. The shocking twist, whatever it is, has the potential to kick MILF Manor’s basic premise up a notch.
Why TLC Fans Already Love Or Hate MILF Manor
Viewers of the MILF Manor trailer speculated that the young men were the womens’ sons, which would align with the anxious vibe of the trailer’s last few seconds, and fit in with other TLC relationships between mothers and their children. TLC’s Twitter account became a firestorm of comments from would-be watchers that split into two distinct camps: people who believe this show marks the collapse of modern society, and people who absolutely cannot wait to tune in. As is the case with most reality shows, this strong division of opinion is heightened by the obscene nature of MILF Manor.
People were also quick to note the similarity between MILF Manor and a satirical show that appeared on an episode of 30 Rock called MILF Island. In the scene, characters were glued to the television in the office, as it aired the season finale of MILF Island. The sketch featured a tug of war between the “MILFS” and eighth-grade boys on the beach, and a catfight at a fictional cove on the island. The fine details are different, but the similarities between the two shows are disturbing, given that many TLC stars have OnlyFans accounts.
Whether the MILF Manor premiere date is marked on their calendars or they’re ringing the alarm, viewers gave the show a ton of free publicity ahead of its upcoming premiere. Fans and critics alike are ready for the inevitable drama and debauchery. For those worried about signs of an apocalypse, TLC has assured everyone that “It’s not an island, it’s a manor.”
MILF Manor premieres Sunday, January 15 at 10 p.m. EST on TLC.
