What day and time will 'MILF Manor' release? Fans react to TLC's dating show, ask 'what happened to The Learning Channel'

Twitter is going crazy about TLC's new dating show 'MILF Manor'

MEXICO, NORTH AMERICA: 'MILF Manor,' TLC's latest reality show, follows eight women as they look for love with younger men. Continue reading to learn more about the show, including its premiere date.

Once upon a time, TLC promoted reality TV that included home design series like 'Trading Spaces' and the captivating wedding dress shopping escapade that is 'Say Yes To The Dress.' TLC was even an abbreviation for something highly ambitious and educational, "The Learning Channel." In 2022, the network will have more daring episodes like 'Love After Lockup' and '90 Day Fiancé' on their once-tame slate. Needless to say, it's a bit murky as to what's going on at TLC these days. One thing is certain, they intend to spark some water cooler talk. And that they did, as the network recently resorted to social media to pique the interest (and incredulity) of TV viewers with the launch of a new show called 'MILF Manor,' which has raised quite a few eyebrows. And social media had a lot to say about the new dating reality program.

A 47-year-old fitness studio owner from Mexico who currently lives in Miami, a 50-year-old "disco mommy" from Orange County, California, a 44-year-old New Jersey native who's moved to Los Angeles, a 59-year-old fitness instructor and singer from Los Angeles, California, and a 50-year-old event planner who worked previously as a B-Girl will be featured on Season 1. Fans received their first glance at the ensemble in the premiere trailer, which was posted by the network on Monday, December 12.

Throughout the new trailer, the women discussed how their previous experiences had prepared them to find love. They also discussed what they search for in a love companion. "I was married for 14 years," one star revealed. "I want to get a chance to do me a little."

"Life has given me some curveballs," stated another of the show's stars at the start of the teaser. "It’s my time to find love," said another reality star.

When asked why she prefers to be with a younger man, one star stated that "young men have much more energy" and that she enjoys how "they think out of the box." Another lady who is optimistic about finding love stated that she is "ready to connect with somebody who doesn’t really care how old I am."

What is the plot of 'MILF Manor'?

'MILF Manor' follows "eight confident and strong-minded women [who] leave home for the chance to find love" in paradise, according to the network's website.

The female stars, who range in age from 40 to 60, are urged to use their years of dating experience to find love with younger men. In each episode, the ladies and men will compete in tasks to determine how real their relationship is. Since the ladies have control over their love life, the younger guys must prove they're ready to become serious with the 'MILF Manor' stars.

What is the buzz around 'MILF Manor'?

It all started on Wednesday when the hashtag #MILFManor began trending, triggering a barrage of sarcastic reactions.  “Welcome to #MILFManor! Eight hot moms leave home for the chance to find love with men half their age, but they're greeted with a shocking twist. The new series premieres January 15th at 10/9c on @TLC," the network tweeted.

Following the release of the 'MILF Manor' teaser, viewers eagerly took to social media to share their views and predictions for the show's main 'twist.' Many TLC followers assume that the mysterious men's group is made up of the ladies' offspring. Others were more interested in the name of the program and the strange ensemble of characters assembled than the nature of the twist.

Questioning the network, a viewer tweeted, "what happened to The Learning Channel." In addition to some instinctive reactions to 'MILF Manor,' there's a lot of speculation about what this "shocking twist" may be. Of course, there's always the potential that the MILFs' sons are invited to the estate to be pawed by the other cougars, "MILF Manor. Eight hot mums leave home for a chance to find love with men half their age, but they're greeted with a "shocking" twist. They're b*****g each others sons." Or consider this amusing twist hypothesis, "The twist in MILF Manor will be that the "young studs" are the sons of the other MILFs, but a bigger twist would be that that they're the out-of-work creatives behind all the better shows that Discovery canceled in order to make this dreck." People have mixed emotions about this hot mess of a dating show, "Me at the front gates of MILF Manor."

'MILF Manor' will premiere on TLC on Sunday, January 15 at 10/9CST.
