LOS ANGELES - Mothers will get to choose brides for their sons on a new reality series from NBC and American Idol host Ryan Seacrest.
In Momma's Boy, a group of "controlling mothers," their eligible "complacent sons" and several brides-to-be live together under one roof. Some of the potential brides are "nice girls" while others, as the press release states, "might not be as appealing to the mothers."
The series is planned for early fall, set to launch right after NBC's presentation of the Summer Olympics in Beijing. NBC is one of several networks that might launch shows from their fall schedules earlier than usual this year. But it's unclear which slot on the schedule Boy will take over.
"Anytime I make a decision either personally or professionally, I have to ask myself ... what would my mother say?" said Seacrest, who will executive produce the show. "Like it or not, I am a true momma's boy. She is the most important woman in my life, and she is never short of opinions. This series throws Mom right in the middle of all the drama. It's loud, it's wild and it's real."
