In 2022, Australia’s hearts will be opened for the first time to a whole new world of grown-up love in My Mum Your Dad.
Kate Langbroek presents this heartfelt series about single parents looking for love the second time around. What they don’t know is their adult children are secretly guiding them through the perils of modern dating.
While this group of brave mums and dads are gathered at a luxury retreat, their kids have taken up residence in a remote bunker to watch their parents’ every move. Not only do they have their parents under surveillance, they also have a big hand in who they date as their parents navigate new territory in the hope of finding their “forever” match.
The kids will go through different challenges for the power to determine who their parents go on a date with, and what they do on the date. These challenges involve hearing cringeworthy confessions about their parents, enduring spicy food and even an ice bath.
Posing as “dating consultants”, the winners of the challenges will decide which lucky parent gets to go on a date with theirs, and will also be spying on the date – sometimes inconspicuously attending the date, or manipulating what their parents do on the date, like choosing the activity or controlling it through a third party on the date.
These parents will find themselves in a raw and vulnerable position their kids have never seen. From touching, major breakthroughs and shocking confessions to funny, unguarded moments, the parents lay it all on the line in the quest for love and a true connection.
This unique dating experience offers an insight into the relationship between parents and their kids with real, raw and honest emotion. There are no better dating experts for a parent than their own kid who has a real investment in the outcome and an insight into the reality of the connection.
The children’s approval, or disapproval, is the ultimate test, and all emotions and thoughts will be revealed at the Blessing Ceremony in the finale.
