When it comes to love and romance, does mom actually know best? That's the premise of OWN's newest reality show #Somebody's Son—based on the viral online hashtag that celebrates Black love, the show follows three charming, successful and, yes, single men as they search for love, with their mothers by their sides offering guidance, support and, of course, some drama. The new series premieres tonight, April 12, at 9pm Eastern Time.
“Each bachelor will be introduced to four women, all with very high standards of their own. The ladies are eager to meet their potential match but will be shocked when they discover that the mothers will not only be guiding their sons through the entire experience, they’ll also be living under the same roof with their sons and the daters," reads the official synopsis from OWN. "And unlike many other dating shows, even after the men (and their moms) think they’ve found their perfect match doesn’t mean the deal is done. These single women are independent and successful on their own, and the men need to prove themselves worthy of a happily ever after with them.”
