On the French reality show *Qui veut épouser mon fils?*, often known as *Mom or Dad*, finding love comes with a major challenge: winning over the parents. The M6 series followed single men, many of whom still lived at home, on their quest for a life partner. The twist was that their overprotective and opinionated mothers were heavily involved in the selection process.
Potential girlfriends had to endure intense scrutiny and pass a series of tests to prove they were worthy of the son. This created a mix of hilarious, awkward, and genuinely dramatic moments as the women tried to impress both the man and his discerning mom. The show explored the unique dynamics of family, tradition, and modern dating. The series has ended, but sign up for a reminder just in case it returns.
