I remember an interview with Jenny McCarthy saying the men were always disgusting and rude before the cameras were on and that’s why she kicked their asses once they were filming. 😂
When she ended up leaving for her own show they definitely leaned into the sex aspect of singled out with Carmen Electra, which whatever but I don’t think they liked that Jenny would troll the men in the audience sometimes even though Jenny was the reason most people watched. At the time she appealed to both men and women. She was beautiful, but she liked fart jokes lol she had a broader range of personality in my opinion.
This brings back memories. A couple of my friends and I were on this show as members of the female “dating pool”. The final 3 contestants are pre selected, and the dating pool were basically what amounts to unpaid extras. We did receive a decent meal and a “parting gift” bag, including a Victoria’s Secret Gift certificate, some toiletries, and a t-shirt with the show logo. All in exchange for standing on a stage screaming your voice out on que, over and over for a few hours. It was pretty funny to watch the hosts basically clowning all the fools within reach. And, yes, all the creepy and awkward behavior by the daters was encouraged by the ADs/crew to be hype and wild, because I guess that was the Mtv brand back in the day. Point a bunch of cameras at a group of screaming teenagers to create staged “excitement”. 😂 it’s a cringe fest, but it was kinda fun at the time, I guess. 😅
Oh I guarantee you I NEVER forgot about Singled Out 😂 Launched Jenny McCarthy’s, Chris Hardwick’s, and Carmen Electra’s careers. It’s actually crazy to me that it only ran for 3 years bc it was so iconic in the 90s experience.
For reals! And yeah, Hardwick looks awkward here now, but he was probably drunk or hungover. Now that he's sober he is a much better host and interviewer.
I remember in an interview Jenny McCarthy said something about the reason why she would slapped those guys on the show because they harass her when the cameras were off but once the cameras turn on She said she would slap ,pull their hair , and they couldn’t do nothing about it because they were recording almost like payback
@@DevotedDisciple-x She was on set with over 50 men and only a handful of women. Or if there were the 50 other women, they were the naive 18 year old contestants who wouldn’t be able to stick up for her like that. So yeah, it is very likely that happened.
I have NEVER forgotten this show! It lives in my head with all the other reruns from the 90s! I had a tag line too, my 13 year old self coming up with "hi my name is Charlotte, wanna get tangled up in MY web?" I was ready to be called up on stage in my imaginary version 🤣
Lol the amount of times I've been imaginary interviewed ... I relate so hard girl lmao killer tagline haha. Do you have one for your real housewives spot too?🤣
"Parental control" ALWAYS gave me the creeps and laughs all at once 😅 your current partner sitting with your parents that hate them, while they watch you go out in a date with someone your parents picked 🤣 The insults they gave them to say to one another, omg it's cringe gold.
This is so silly but my great grandma was OBSESSED with this show. I remember plopping down on the couch late Friday nights to watch this show with my great grandma and my grandma. They looked forward to the show all week long. 😂 A lot of the stuff went over my little kid head but I just got back some memories of them giggling at the ornery jokes and that makes me happy. I miss them :(
I remember this one episode where Jenny McCarthy pulled her hair into her armpits and said “my hair is very hypnotizing eh?!” And me, as a small child watching that show for no reason .. repeated that line FOR YEARS 😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣 There’s a quote from another 90’s MTV show where the female contestant said “I shaved a P in my pootinanny for priceless” & that has never left my brain
So I know that girl’s bad chicken impression is what kicked off Jenny’s “cHiCkEn LaDy” thing, but I’m almost POSITIVE that Jenny’s referencing a character Mark McKinney used to do on Kids in the Hall… Which just makes me think I’ve been underestimating Jenny McCarthy, because imo KITH is one of the most brilliant comedy shows of all time and I wouldn’t have expected her to dig it. And her impression of the Chicken Lady character is kinda REALLY good, which makes me think she’s practiced it before.
YES! We love a good KITH reference!! I'm always so happy to see them in the wild. I almost guarantee that was a KITH Chicken Lady impersonation and I'm here for it. Didn't Jenny McCarthy used to date (or was married to?) Jim Carrey? So she's at least somewhat acquainted with Canadian comedy 😅
Same! Which reminded me that she and Melissa McCarthy are cousins. It would be interesting to know what her career would have been if she hadn't been reduced to the hot chick with a dirty mouth who was on the toilet in Candies ads.
Remember MTV had a show called FEAR. They left ppl in a supposed to be haunted place and give them task to do like in the dark . Winner got like $5000 . One episode they were in an old prison . I loved that show .
I loved that show for the forst season but hated how they felt they had to up themselves every time to the point they couldnt air because they were genuinely hurting the people. Also, it was what got me into godsmack.
Thanks for taking me down memory lane to one of my favorite vacation stories of all time. When I was 12, our family went to Panama City Beach, Florida for spring break. My parents booked our hotel through an agent and the agent never mentioned that the hotel she was booking for a family of six (bro-13, me-12, bro-10 and sis-8) was next to MTV’s headquarters for their Spring Break special and was almost completely booked with drunk college age kids going to MTV’s spring break extravaganza. Soooo…imagine my parents delight upon arriving that the hotel was not so family friendly, the beach outside was covered with college age drunk kids basically naked trying to get on tv, and camera crews strolling around everywhere…and you guessed it…an episode of Singled Out was being filmed while we lounged on the beach…the highlight of the dating show being a wet t-shirt contest. Needless to say…we lasted a few days before my parents could find another hotel far far away. I just remember my Mom trying to desperately explain why we couldn’t go on the beach or outside because what would people think of her with her children out there in all that and my Dad yelling on the phone to the agent about how she needed to fix this because of course she should have known that MTV was using this hotel for their spring break. Still one of the funniest memories I have from a family vacation. 😹😹😹
My uncle used to live in Panama City, so we'd go down to visit every spring break until I was 12 or 13. MTV started doing their spring break special there the last couple years we went and it was CRAZY!! We would end up going to Mexico Beach instead cuz Panama City Beach was way too crowded and obnoxious, so I can't even imagine being stuck in one of those hotels!
What a great story! I was also 12 at the time and will never forget watching Springer Break when I was somehow alone at home all week. It was the raunchiest stuff I’d ever seen before on TV. What a nightmare that must have been for your parents to be in the midst of it with you and your siblings! 🙈
One of my friends was casted to an MTV reality show in the 90s. It was one where MTV turns you into a music star. He was the only actual musician, and not a high schooler like the show wanted you to believe. He was close to 30. Anyway, he said it was really horrible because MTV didn't want the girl's real life best friend to be in the episode because she was disabled. Oh the 90s.
Omg they didn't want her on the show because she was disabled?? WTF 😳 Times were different, and not in a good way! Now I'm curious about who your musician friend was. I used to watch the show but I can only remember the guys they turned into Red Hot Chili Peppers and the girl who became Pink.
They filmed an episode of Made one year at my high school. It was awkward having cameras around all the time for months, and most of the people who volunteered to give interviews didn't even know the girl doing the episode. It really opened my eyes to how produced and fake those shows were
@@BlckSWANWhtRbbt they did some kind of early filming with a girl in my high school but never went ahead with making an episode about her. I think she wanted to be a punk singer and her personality was the exact opposite of that. I’m kind of glad everyone else at the school got to avoid your experience
@@BlckSWANWhtRbbt @Samantha Norton makes me still so thankful that Laguna Beach HS took the bait for a show. They asked our school 4 times, then gave up and did it with LB. And I knew some of the kids that they focused on in the show. So much drama was fabricated, or they would stir the pot to make it 10x worse. Then have narcissistic personalities in the mix...things get annoying quickly.
Does anyone else remember when they featured this show on Boy Meets World?? I remember thinking it would’ve been better had Jenny still been a part of it.
yes i was looking to see if anyone else remembered this! they had Cory’s older brother Eric on the show, I didn’t actually think this was a real dating show though lol
When I saw your title my reaction was "OMG, I HOPE it's 'Singled Out'!!!" I loved that show at the time...and of course it gave us Jenny McCarthy; aka the all-farting, dancing, anti-vaxxing celebrity that is both a Karen and a Stacey at the same time.
This was peak Jenny McCarthy. 😂I 'member this show. I could only watch it at my grandparents houses because we didn't get mtv, but she was absolutely the best part of the show! 😂
I don't think any video of your Jamie has topped this. I literally cackled out loud at this video. PLEASE do another episode of this TV show I'm begging you this was SO FUNNY
I'm an 80s baby so I remember this show like it was yesterday, I also remember the host guest-starred on an episode of married with children and even made fun of the show Singled Out, that he used to host. It's the episode where Kelly and her friends take Bud and his friends tickets to Florida to go on spring break. Kelly gets picked to be in a beauty show and that is the dude that interviews her. But the funny thing is, Kelly's character even states in the show, "who are you ,are you like famous or something"🤣🤣🤣
He also did an episode of Boy Meets World. Eric goes in Singled Out and the running gag is how much Wil Friedle and Chris Hardwick look like each other.
Omg I request ANYTHING from this same MTV era but the Spring Bream version! I thought all college kids went to FL for spring break and I wanted to be on a show or dance. THE DANCING. I haven't thought of that in a loooooooong time.
My dad passed unexpectedly on December 29th, and in the midst of grief and mourning, I need an outlet to escape - thank you for being that! Love your channel, you’re awesome
I watched it a little too young (I think I was like 10), but I vividly remember how weird this show was. Maybe the cartoonishness is why I could watch it.
As someone who loved it when it came out (I was only 12!) all I need to say is be glad you weren't subjected to it at that age and somehow led to think the way the guys acted on this show was normal. And like you'd want to "win" a guy who was just showing a bunch of red flags. 😬
@@angelasands1643 I was around 11-12 when this 1st aired, and while I was no expert on men or adult relationships at that age, (despite thinking I was, just because I had a "boyfriend " a grade above me) I never once believed back then that this show was realistic, or that anyone acted like this in real life, everything was so overly dramatic, ridiculous and shallow. Plus you can tell nobody is really being themselves. The show made everyone look foolish, including the hosts. Don't really see how anyone could exhibit any "red flags " since everything was so over the top and phony. It seemed far from how normal people would act in real life. However I was guilty of letting an MTV show influence me negatively at age 11, was MTV'S The Grind and The beach house. All those fit,attractive women dancing in tiny bikinis had me working out till 4am on my brothers Norditrack while everyone slept, and eating nothing but slimfast bars. Despite me being a perfectly normal weight, I thought I needed tight washboard abs to be attractive at 11. Finally stopped when i stopped getting my period for 4 months, was always weak and got scared and told my mom so yeah I definitely don't think MTV was the greatest thing for those of us who were impressionable preteens at the time.
“I don’t want a girl to get upset when I lose interest” “I love seeing those animals have babies” 😂😂 Wait what?! There’s so much cringe in this show. It’s GOLD.
OMG I’m begging you to watch episodes from an MTV show called The Ex Effect. THIS SHOW WAS WILD!!! It was one of the most drama-filled juicy shows ever! They brought couples to a ‘resort’ but the catch is their exes are there at the resort too but nobody knows and the producer put the couples who USED to date in a room and the current couples in another and they are watching them in secret to see if they will cheat. At the end of every episode they get to decide if they want to stay as a couple or dump them and get back with their ex.
This is a classic for me! I had a realization several months ago while watching "The Ultimatum" that the only dating shows I enjoy are ones where relationships are tested (ripped apart), and I think it all traces back to Ex Effect. That being said, my next show is "Love for the Ages" where married couples separate & date younger people & then decide if they want to stay together.
OMG, talk about old times. Once you showed the logo, I was like, HOLY HELL, I use to watch that religiously! Losing my memory. 44 does it to ya :) Thanks for the vid!
I loved singled out. I had a huge crush on Chris Hardwick. When I was younger, the sleepaway camp I went to did a version, and we got to get McDonalds if we won. I was a contestant, and at the time, I chose my friend ryan. Looking back, I had a big crush on the guy, and it was probably the only way I could think of to ask him out without the terror of being rejected.
Thank God I wasn't the only one with a crush on Chris Hardwick! I got teased for it by my friends, his jokes were corny but he was adorable. Was a boy in my 7th grade who looked just like the 12 year old version of Chris, he had that same 90's haircut as him, similar face, huge blue eyes i was stoked when I asked him out and he said yes. Few months later he dumped me for some other girl out of nowhere and watching Singled Out would remind me of him. Oh, to be 12 again! This show started airing in late spring/early summer of 1995, and this episode was from that season. Crazy to think it was nearly 30 years ago. I lived for this corny show 😂
I think Jenny was trying to make a reference to the Chicken Lady from the show Kids in the Hall (which I think you'd really like, actually! There's a segment where Dave Foley - the ant from A Bug's Life - has a tone of voice that always sounds sar castic even when he's being sincere... And another where Kevin McCarthy - Pleakley from Lilo & Stitch - has a To-Do List of 7 Things and he's desperately trying to stay on top of his life/chores but becomes a hostage in a robbery situation... I could go on and on!). Anyway, Chicken Lady is a half lady half chicken character from that show. Who, uh, is actually one of my least favorite characters but only 'cause her voice kinda hurts my ears. MOST IMPORTANTLY: Thank you SO MUCH for keeping my husband and me entertained throughout 2022 (one of the worst years of either of our lives). We're immensely grateful and hope you take plenty of time to relax before coming back with what we know will be awesome content in 2023. I'm sorry I never comment, but I watch every episode and I'm always grateful. And I was SO excited you reviewed Taking 5 this year! I pre-ordered that movie when it came out because I was such a huge fan of The Click Five lol but it always felt like I was the only one who'd even heard of that film. Take care and happy 2023! And to anyone else who's reading this too (if you’re a fan of Jaime's, you're probably pretty okay! ❤️)
Honestly, I'm kinda glad I'm not old enough to remember this show, but am old enough to remember all the other reality shows that came after it. 😁😅 Peak early 2000s nostalgia for me was watching "The Simple Life" & being subsequently scared for life watching young Paris Hilton & Nicole Richie doing all sorts of cringy things. Definitely think that would be up Jaime's alley for this series. Also, Happy New Years Jaime! 😊💜
One show I’d love for you to ‘member is MTV’s “Fear.” It was kind of their version of a ghost hunting show, but was just set up to scare the people on it. I think it started with regular people and then changed into celebrities going into the haunted places alone.
I remember this show! Chris Hardwicke is the host. He also hosted "The Talking Dead" a show talking about "The Walking Dead" episodes with the actors. Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg is a judge on "The Masked Singer" and she's married to Donnie Wahlberg from New Kids On The Block.
You are literally the funniest person that I've ever stumbled upon in my almost 32 years on this planet, I don't know what I would do without your content honestly! And you just always manage to cheer me up and somehow your content helps me get through my very severe panic attacks that have been suffering from as of late, and I just cannot thank you enough! You really are a lifesaver, you're funnier than you give yourself credit for, and way more beautiful too! Love you, mean it XX Steven
I wasn’t even a teenager but I watched this show every chance I could! I loved Jenny and Chris! I think everyone was loaded on various things and allowed to do whatever they wanted. That’s including the host lol.
11:42 she's referencing the chicken lady, a recurring character by Mark McKinney (SNL) on the 1988-95 Canadian sketch comedy show "The Kids In The Hall". In the US, we had it on HBO and then Comedy Central. Now it's on Pluto and Amazon Prime. It's a phenomenal show, if u haven't seen it, you should. BTW, there's no way Jenny McCarthy isn't on drugs here. She seems to be taking a bump every commercial break.
So Weird, Animorphs, The Secret World of Alex Mack, Figure it Out, S Club 7, What Would You Do?, Legends of the Hidden Temple, Are You Afraid of the Dark, My So-Called Life, The Swan (awful), Cousin Skeeter... just some forgotten things coming to mind.
Please tell me someone out there remembers the dating show “Bzzz!” (that is spelled correctly, “bzzz” not “buzz”). It had a very similar aesthetic to this show.. mystery “bachelor/ettes” would stand behind the screen of a huge pink heart, and all you saw was their silhouette while they answered questions for the person “looking for ❤love❤”. They even had a blonde host with a bob haircut. I think they showed it on tnt or tbs during the daytime in the 90’s. And there are episodes available to watch on TH-cam. I just can’t find anyone in my life who remembers it…they only remember singled out! (Overly long comment, but I gotta know that I’m not the only one!)
OMG I legit forgot all about that show! You literally just dragged it out of the dark, long forgotten recesses of my memory 🤣🤣🤣 My sister and I used to LOVE that show! I totally gotta look it up now! Thanks 👍
I wish i was born 10 years earlier maybe even 5. When I was a teen i was watching room raiders, NEXT, The X Effect, and Parental Control. The music Videos that played all night until 7am. Lol I feel like that was the end of the good MTV days😅 btw Hope you have a Happy New Year! Love your channel💜
Date my mom was also airing on German MTV (dubbed with the original audio left as is). My oder sister would always play it in the background while she did homework. To this day I remember this one episode, that aired when I was 7, where he chooses the mom, and he is smiling and then the daughter came out and his face just dropped, because she was overweight. I blame this episode for my ed (like not really but its a core memory) If you cover date my mom please do this episode
I wasn't prepared for the 1842 funeral veil. 🤣 Also, I member watching this show all the time when I was, like, thirteen, and I had no idea it was so terrible. But watching it again does help me understand why I've always had this blind love for Jenny McCarthy that's strong enough to outshine the sun.
I actually just found your channel and, I’ve recently been in a seriously stressful situation at home that kind of unexpectedly came up. Literally like I’ve been on edge all day every day for a week now and decided to make some time to get on TH-cam and relax. I don’t know how I came across one of your videos, but I am so glad I did. I think it was a Corey Feldman video! You are seriously so funny and likable. I love your content. Thank you for finally helping me chill out a little bit!
I remember back in the late 90s after this show aired, someone called my mom's cousin's house for like a week straight (and we to this day aren't 100% WHO did it because no one has fessed up, and there's entirely a chance it was just a prank caller who none of us knew) and asked every single time she answered the phone "Is this the chicken lady? Can I speak to the chicken lady?" She was unfortunately not the chicken lady, but I still remember it so vividly because it was absolutely hilarious. So clearly, someone else wanted this to be a meme before memes were even a thing, and I think we should bring it back as a meme 100%
I am stoked you covered this! I could not for the life of me remember the name of this show 😂 I wanted to browse and see if I could find it. I went down a rabbit hole watching VHS dating videos that were submitted back in the 80’s/90’s.
Jaime, I've been housecleaning like a madwoman for the last two days and just relistening to some of your old reviews and laughing the whole time. Thanks for making this chore so fun, lol.
I was just binge watching your member that? of Made when this notification popped up! These MTV shows are interesting. I'm your age, but I don't remember them. But I didn't really watch MTV after TRL during my boy band stage.
Keep doing singled out episodes - please! I haven't laughed this hard in a while, and I laugh at all your vids!♡♡ happy new year Jamie! PS Thank you for not spelling your name Jaime.
You and Bailey Sarian are the only TH-camrs I watch. Im so glad I found you. Going through a tough year and could use some light laughter every now and then. Also, please review the 2006 film “Stick It” with Missy Peregrym.
I remember watching Singled Out and I remember Jenny McCarthy being on it, but I had completely forgotten about Chris Hardwick being the host. 🤣 I always laughed way too much watching it.
I have a vague recollection of singled out. I always remember Chris was also a host because I used to listen to his podcast and whenever he had his best friends on and it came up, they would always tease him about it lol
GOD DANG this is a throwback. I would watch this despite being WAY TOO YOUNG (I was like...10), and genuinely thought this was what normal dating looked like and definitely thought I had ALL THIS TO LOOK FORWARD TO. Yikes. Also, I NEED to know where these people are now.
I remember an interview with Jenny McCarthy saying the men were always disgusting and rude before the cameras were on and that’s why she kicked their asses once they were filming. 😂
I member that too
Came here to say just this!
I remember her saying that. They treated her horribly on that show.
When she ended up leaving for her own show they definitely leaned into the sex aspect of singled out with Carmen Electra, which whatever but I don’t think they liked that Jenny would troll the men in the audience sometimes even though Jenny was the reason most people watched. At the time she appealed to both men and women. She was beautiful, but she liked fart jokes lol she had a broader range of personality in my opinion.

Its not like they were even good looking last picks, nothing would have amounted to it being preselected.

It was all I could tolerate after they abolished my beloved music videos and rolled out TRL after. Which was unwatchable..lol
Oh I guarantee you I NEVER forgot about Singled Out 😂 Launched Jenny McCarthy’s, Chris Hardwick’s, and Carmen Electra’s careers. It’s actually crazy to me that it only ran for 3 years bc it was so iconic in the 90s experience.

Exactly!
Same, was about to say, forgot? This was a 90s staple !
For reals! And yeah, Hardwick looks awkward here now, but he was probably drunk or hungover. Now that he's sober he is a much better host and interviewer.
Didn't Carmen Electra get her start on Baywatch?
I remember in an interview Jenny McCarthy said something about the reason why she would slapped those guys on the show because they harass her when the cameras were off but once the cameras turn on She said she would slap ,pull their hair , and they couldn’t do nothing about it because they were recording almost like payback

Chicken Lady was one of the absolute worst parts of KITH. Hundreds of better sketches than that one.
Remember MTV had a show called FEAR. They left ppl in a supposed to be haunted place and give them task to do like in the dark . Winner got like $5000 .
One episode they were in an old prison .
I loved that show .
I loved that show for the forst season but hated how they felt they had to up themselves every time to the point they couldnt air because they were genuinely hurting the people. Also, it was what got me into godsmack.
My brother and I used to play fear by hiding in closets and in the basement with walkie talkies lol good times
I love that show so much and the theme sonh
I loved that one!
MTV had so many shows!
Remember their "soap operas" Undressed and Spyder Games?
MTV should win an award for the most tv shows ever!

He was the only actual musician, and not a high schooler like the show wanted you to believe. He was close to 30. Anyway, he said it was really horrible because MTV didn't want the girl's real life best friend to be in the episode because she was disabled. Oh the 90s.
Omg they didn't want her on the show because she was disabled?? WTF 😳 Times were different, and not in a good way! Now I'm curious about who your musician friend was. I used to watch the show but I can only remember the guys they turned into Red Hot Chili Peppers and the girl who became Pink.
They filmed an episode of Made one year at my high school. It was awkward having cameras around all the time for months, and most of the people who volunteered to give interviews didn't even know the girl doing the episode. It really opened my eyes to how produced and fake those shows were
@@BlckSWANWhtRbbt they did some kind of early filming with a girl in my high school but never went ahead with making an episode about her. I think she wanted to be a punk singer and her personality was the exact opposite of that. I’m kind of glad everyone else at the school got to avoid your experience
@@BlckSWANWhtRbbt @Samantha Norton makes me still so thankful that Laguna Beach HS took the bait for a show. They asked our school 4 times, then gave up and did it with LB. And I knew some of the kids that they focused on in the show. So much drama was fabricated, or they would stir the pot to make it 10x worse. Then have narcissistic personalities in the mix...things get annoying quickly.
What! That’s unbelievable!! If I were the girl on the show I’d refuse to be on it because if that.
Does anyone else remember when they featured this show on Boy Meets World?? I remember thinking it would’ve been better had Jenny still been a part of it.
yes i was looking to see if anyone else remembered this! they had Cory’s older brother Eric on the show, I didn’t actually think this was a real dating show though lol
Omgg!! I forgot all about that. I didn't realize it was a real show at the time. 🤣 I love that episode.
@@kayleeelizabeth3747 God, I loved Eric so much!
Yup! When this show started i immediately said “Chris hardwick looks like will Friedle…but not at cute” lol
Idc how "prepared" I am, if Jenny McCarthy starts rubbing my head I'm gonna lose my train of thought too.
Lol right. It wasn't that he wasn't prepared it was an 18 year old guy losing his shit when Jenny McCarthey touched him 🤣
🎯
When I saw your title my reaction was "OMG, I HOPE it's 'Singled Out'!!!" I loved that show at the time...and of course it gave us Jenny McCarthy; aka the all-farting, dancing, anti-vaxxing celebrity that is both a Karen and a Stacey at the same time.
I have never read a better description of Jenny McCarthy.
Never.
Nice to know that Donnie Wahlberg has such low standards.
This was peak Jenny McCarthy. 😂I 'member this show. I could only watch it at my grandparents houses because we didn't get mtv, but she was absolutely the best part of the show! 😂
I don't think any video of your Jamie has topped this. I literally cackled out loud at this video. PLEASE do another episode of this TV show I'm begging you this was SO FUNNY
As soon as you said MTV and dating show in the same sentence, I crossed my fingers and said "please be doing singled out!"
They even did Spring Break specials!
@@Swami_Mami Right!
I'm an 80s baby so I remember this show like it was yesterday, I also remember the host guest-starred on an episode of married with children and even made fun of the show Singled Out, that he used to host. It's the episode where Kelly and her friends take Bud and his friends tickets to Florida to go on spring break. Kelly gets picked to be in a beauty show and that is the dude that interviews her. But the funny thing is, Kelly's character even states in the show, "who are you ,are you like famous or something"🤣🤣🤣
I just bought the whole show(MWC) on DVD for $20 and there r so ooooh many good guest stars I didn't member'. I'll have to rewatch that one.
He also did an episode of Boy Meets World. Eric goes in Singled Out and the running gag is how much Wil Friedle and Chris Hardwick look like each other.
I was obsessed with this show when I was WAY too young to be watching it
Same here!
@@kristenmae6761 our parents were way too trusting in the 90s😂
@@guardingthemoon my parents were never home 🤣
Same 😂😂😂
Same!!!!!
I love how your the only TH-camr who knows how to transition to your sponsorships to make sense in your videos 😊
I LOVED singled out... it was so chaotic. I wanted to be on it so bad and was so sad when it stopped airing. lol. This was Mtv at its prime.
Wasn't allowed to watch MTV growing up...but Boy Meets World introduced me to this show!! 😄
I member that insane show 😂
The 90s were certainly not boring. Now the entertainment industry is dying as we find gems like Jaime on TH-cam. 😁❤️
no, i think we just all cut back on the sugar
Omg I request ANYTHING from this same MTV era but the Spring Bream version! I thought all college kids went to FL for spring break and I wanted to be on a show or dance. THE DANCING. I haven't thought of that in a loooooooong time.
I watched this show so much. The spring break versions were wild.
How could you forget Singled Out?! 😂😂 I was obsessed!
Jaime and Co. have absolutely been cranking out the content lately, and I just want to say THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK!!!
I can’t stop hearing the passion in your voice as you said “soft gentle butt” 😂❤
I should not have been watching this when I was like 11 and wishing I could be on it. Honestly foreshadowing my future romantic life😂
My dad passed unexpectedly on December 29th, and in the midst of grief and mourning, I need an outlet to escape - thank you for being that! Love your channel, you’re awesome
Mine passed unexpectedly the 20th. Solidarity 💜
Im actually kinda sad I missed this fever dream era in MTV’s history because I would love seeing this in its prime 😂😂
You have no idea the fun with this show and also the dancing by the pool to popular songs and then spring break.
I watched it a little too young (I think I was like 10), but I vividly remember how weird this show was. Maybe the cartoonishness is why I could watch it.
@@DReed1945 YASSSSSS!!! Spring break! 😂
As someone who loved it when it came out (I was only 12!) all I need to say is be glad you weren't subjected to it at that age and somehow led to think the way the guys acted on this show was normal. And like you'd want to "win" a guy who was just showing a bunch of red flags. 😬
@@angelasands1643 I was around 11-12 when this 1st aired, and while I was no expert on men or adult relationships at that age, (despite thinking I was, just because I had a "boyfriend " a grade above me) I never once believed back then that this show was realistic, or that anyone acted like this in real life, everything was so overly dramatic, ridiculous and shallow. Plus you can tell nobody is really being themselves. The show made everyone look foolish, including the hosts. Don't really see how anyone could exhibit any "red flags " since everything was so over the top and phony. It seemed far from how normal people would act in real life. However I was guilty of letting an MTV show influence me negatively at age 11, was MTV'S The Grind and The beach house. All those fit,attractive women dancing in tiny bikinis had me working out till 4am on my brothers Norditrack while everyone slept, and eating nothing but slimfast bars. Despite me being a perfectly normal weight, I thought I needed tight washboard abs to be attractive at 11. Finally stopped when i stopped getting my period for 4 months, was always weak and got scared and told my mom so yeah I definitely don't think MTV was the greatest thing for those of us who were impressionable preteens at the time.
“I don’t want a girl to get upset when I lose interest” “I love seeing those animals have babies” 😂😂 Wait what?!
There’s so much cringe in this show. It’s GOLD.
It’s like he wants the girls not to like him, because obviously if she liked him she would be upset when he lost interest 😂
OMG I’m begging you to watch episodes from an MTV show called The Ex Effect. THIS SHOW WAS WILD!!! It was one of the most drama-filled juicy shows ever! They brought couples to a ‘resort’ but the catch is their exes are there at the resort too but nobody knows and the producer put the couples who USED to date in a room and the current couples in another and they are watching them in secret to see if they will cheat. At the end of every episode they get to decide if they want to stay as a couple or dump them and get back with their ex.
This is a classic for me! I had a realization several months ago while watching "The Ultimatum" that the only dating shows I enjoy are ones where relationships are tested (ripped apart), and I think it all traces back to Ex Effect. That being said, my next show is "Love for the Ages" where married couples separate & date younger people & then decide if they want to stay together.
You forgot the lamp that lights up whenever they’re touching
Haha I remember that show :D
WOW! What a time that was! I FEEL these wardrobes 😅. Fabric didn’t breathe, sticky makeup…🤡🥹
I live for the "member that" episodes. Thank you for this, and Happy New Year 💖
OMG, talk about old times. Once you showed the logo, I was like, HOLY HELL, I use to watch that religiously! Losing my memory. 44 does it to ya :) Thanks for the vid!
So much nostalgia! I even remember an episode of Boy Meets World when Eric goes on this show, it was amazing
I watched this show with an opened mouth, because I couldn’t believe what I was watching! LOL
I had to pause true blood to watch this. It did not disappoint. This was hilarious!!
when my chicken push eggs, they literally scream. like, HAAAAAAA!!! i'm not joking haha
3:54 the way she said "ouch" was so funny for no reason
The way you described Single Out to the viewers made me feel old. I used to watch it whenever it was on lol! I loved that show.
I loved singled out. I had a huge crush on Chris Hardwick. When I was younger, the sleepaway camp I went to did a version, and we got to get McDonalds if we won. I was a contestant, and at the time, I chose my friend ryan. Looking back, I had a big crush on the guy, and it was probably the only way I could think of to ask him out without the terror of being rejected.
Didn't he do that show called Street Smart?
@TheSweetielauren no, that was Frank Nicotero. He also was the basic white guy of the late 90's early 2000's.
I also had a huge crush on Chris Hardwick haha
@@scarlettjones9692 same!!
Thank God I wasn't the only one with a crush on Chris Hardwick! I got teased for it by my friends, his jokes were corny but he was adorable. Was a boy in my 7th grade who looked just like the 12 year old version of Chris, he had that same 90's haircut as him, similar face, huge blue eyes i was stoked when I asked him out and he said yes. Few months later he dumped me for some other girl out of nowhere and watching Singled Out would remind me of him. Oh, to be 12 again! This show started airing in late spring/early summer of 1995, and this episode was from that season. Crazy to think it was nearly 30 years ago. I lived for this corny show 😂
I think Jenny was trying to make a reference to the Chicken Lady from the show Kids in the Hall (which I think you'd really like, actually! There's a segment where Dave Foley - the ant from A Bug's Life - has a tone of voice that always sounds sar castic even when he's being sincere... And another where Kevin McCarthy - Pleakley from Lilo & Stitch - has a To-Do List of 7 Things and he's desperately trying to stay on top of his life/chores but becomes a hostage in a robbery situation... I could go on and on!). Anyway, Chicken Lady is a half lady half chicken character from that show. Who, uh, is actually one of my least favorite characters but only 'cause her voice kinda hurts my ears.
MOST IMPORTANTLY: Thank you SO MUCH for keeping my husband and me entertained throughout 2022 (one of the worst years of either of our lives). We're immensely grateful and hope you take plenty of time to relax before coming back with what we know will be awesome content in 2023. I'm sorry I never comment, but I watch every episode and I'm always grateful. And I was SO excited you reviewed Taking 5 this year! I pre-ordered that movie when it came out because I was such a huge fan of The Click Five lol but it always felt like I was the only one who'd even heard of that film.
Take care and happy 2023! And to anyone else who's reading this too (if you’re a fan of Jaime's, you're probably pretty okay! ❤️)
Omg memory unlocked I abso fricking lutely loved kids in the hall!!!!!
The fact that I watched this stuff in my prepubescent formative years explains A LOT
Honestly, I'm kinda glad I'm not old enough to remember this show, but am old enough to remember all the other reality shows that came after it. 😁😅 Peak early 2000s nostalgia for me was watching "The Simple Life" & being subsequently scared for life watching young Paris Hilton & Nicole Richie doing all sorts of cringy things. Definitely think that would be up Jaime's alley for this series. Also, Happy New Years Jaime! 😊💜
I don’t think I ever watched this show but I vividly remember the episode of Boy Meets World where Eric wants to be on it
Wow, glad I never missed seeing this tv show as a kid. Thanks Jaime
One show I’d love for you to ‘member is MTV’s “Fear.” It was kind of their version of a ghost hunting show, but was just set up to scare the people on it. I think it started with regular people and then changed into celebrities going into the haunted places alone.
I remember this show! Chris Hardwicke is the host. He also hosted "The Talking Dead" a show talking about "The Walking Dead" episodes with the actors. Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg is a judge on "The Masked Singer" and she's married to Donnie Wahlberg from New Kids On The Block.
You are literally the funniest person that I've ever stumbled upon in my almost 32 years on this planet, I don't know what I would do without your content honestly! And you just always manage to cheer me up and somehow your content helps me get through my very severe panic attacks that have been suffering from as of late, and I just cannot thank you enough! You really are a lifesaver, you're funnier than you give yourself credit for, and way more beautiful too! Love you, mean it XX Steven
I'm so sorry about your panic attacks. They are so terrible. 💜 Jaime is such a good time with her awesome sense of humor and creativity.
I like her too, she reminds me of Jontron. They should collab, they're both judging films don't they?
I'm 32 too. :)
I’m just gonna throw this out there… chickens don’t give birth.
Ugh I remember this show. I was never that interested in it… but yeah… MTV had the weirdest dating shows back then 🙃
I loved this show as a teenager. It explains a lot about my life now.
Oh god. This era of MTV raised me too. Wow. I can’t believe this was so long ago. I feel so old.
We're old now.
I read a magazine article from when this show came out, and I remember they said how souless the whole thing felt
What the hell was going on with this show, woah lol what a gem! Thanks for bringing this back to our cultural conciousness
I wasn’t even a teenager but I watched this show every chance I could! I loved Jenny and Chris! I think everyone was loaded on various things and allowed to do whatever they wanted. That’s including the host lol.
I’ve been rewatching all of your content! It’s such a nice break from the daily craziness. Thanks for all you do ❤️
11:42 she's referencing the chicken lady, a recurring character by Mark McKinney (SNL) on the 1988-95 Canadian sketch comedy show "The Kids In The Hall". In the US, we had it on HBO and then Comedy Central. Now it's on Pluto and Amazon Prime. It's a phenomenal show, if u haven't seen it, you should.
BTW, there's no way Jenny McCarthy isn't on drugs here. She seems to be taking a bump every commercial break.
Every time I see Chris Hardwick outside of The Talking Dead, and I've seen him act in stuff before, I'm still surprised. Every single time lmao
So Weird, Animorphs, The Secret World of Alex Mack, Figure it Out, S Club 7, What Would You Do?, Legends of the Hidden Temple, Are You Afraid of the Dark, My So-Called Life, The Swan (awful), Cousin Skeeter... just some forgotten things coming to mind.
Jamie's makeup is just 💞
I freakin loooooooved Singledout!!!!!! 🤣🤦♀️🤘🏼
I love 'membering this with you Jaime! I used to watch this show all the time as a young teenager. Jenny was truly the best part of the show.
Could never get into MTV…but enjoy your “Remember This”!❤❤❤
Please tell me someone out there remembers the dating show “Bzzz!” (that is spelled correctly, “bzzz” not “buzz”). It had a very similar aesthetic to this show.. mystery “bachelor/ettes” would stand behind the screen of a huge pink heart, and all you saw was their silhouette while they answered questions for the person “looking for ❤love❤”. They even had a blonde host with a bob haircut. I think they showed it on tnt or tbs during the daytime in the 90’s. And there are episodes available to watch on TH-cam. I just can’t find anyone in my life who remembers it…they only remember singled out! (Overly long comment, but I gotta know that I’m not the only one!)
I 'member that show!
Okay so I am having total flashbacks now of that scene but cannot remember anything else! I hope she does that show too so I can ‘member that better!
You're not the only one!! I also really liked Elimidate but that came later.
OMG I legit forgot all about that show! You literally just dragged it out of the dark, long forgotten recesses of my memory 🤣🤣🤣 My sister and I used to LOVE that show! I totally gotta look it up now! Thanks 👍
Daaaaannngggg that's a deep cut right there. I do remember that show. I'm pretty sure I was in 7th grade when I watched it.
Definitely did not forget about this show! I used to think the male host had the sexiest hair 😂
Chris Hardwick’s career trajectory has been….interesting.
LMFAO you are flipping hilarious these reactions 🤣😂
I wish i was born 10 years earlier maybe even 5. When I was a teen i was watching room raiders, NEXT, The X Effect, and Parental Control. The music Videos that played all night until 7am. Lol I feel like that was the end of the good MTV days😅 btw Hope you have a Happy New Year! Love your channel💜
Date my mom was also airing on German MTV (dubbed with the original audio left as is). My oder sister would always play it in the background while she did homework.
To this day I remember this one episode, that aired when I was 7, where he chooses the mom, and he is smiling and then the daughter came out and his face just dropped, because she was overweight. I blame this episode for my ed (like not really but its a core memory)
If you cover date my mom please do this episode
Seeing shows like these from the 90's makes me think they took place on another planet tbh.
I wasn't prepared for the 1842 funeral veil. 🤣
Also, I member watching this show all the time when I was, like, thirteen, and I had no idea it was so terrible. But watching it again does help me understand why I've always had this blind love for Jenny McCarthy that's strong enough to outshine the sun.
You unlocked a memory for me. I forgot this show even existed.
I actually just found your channel and, I’ve recently been in a seriously stressful situation at home that kind of unexpectedly came up. Literally like I’ve been on edge all day every day for a week now and decided to make some time to get on TH-cam and relax. I don’t know how I came across one of your videos, but I am so glad I did. I think it was a Corey Feldman video! You are seriously so funny and likable. I love your content. Thank you for finally helping me chill out a little bit!
So sorry you’re stressed friend. Thank you for being here ♥️
I love the memories unlocked with these episodes. Thank you for that 💖
I remember back in the late 90s after this show aired, someone called my mom's cousin's house for like a week straight (and we to this day aren't 100% WHO did it because no one has fessed up, and there's entirely a chance it was just a prank caller who none of us knew) and asked every single time she answered the phone "Is this the chicken lady? Can I speak to the chicken lady?"
She was unfortunately not the chicken lady, but I still remember it so vividly because it was absolutely hilarious. So clearly, someone else wanted this to be a meme before memes were even a thing, and I think we should bring it back as a meme 100%
Perfect time for me to check my notifications 🤣
I am stoked you covered this! I could not for the life of me remember the name of this show 😂 I wanted to browse and see if I could find it. I went down a rabbit hole watching VHS dating videos that were submitted back in the 80’s/90’s.
Wow. Talk about a flashback to my tween/teen years. I now need to rewatch all episodes of this show. 😂😂😂
Me and my neighbor Penny used to record this onto VHS. What an era. Explains so much about me
That weird Chicken Lady dance Jenny did was a Kids in the Hall reference, which may have still been on the air at the time.
Jaime, I've been housecleaning like a madwoman for the last two days and just relistening to some of your old reviews and laughing the whole time. Thanks for making this chore so fun, lol.
I was just binge watching your member that? of Made when this notification popped up! These MTV shows are interesting. I'm your age, but I don't remember them. But I didn't really watch MTV after TRL during my boy band stage.
Keep doing singled out episodes - please! I haven't laughed this hard in a while, and I laugh at all your vids!♡♡ happy new year Jamie! PS Thank you for not spelling your name Jaime.
I never heard of this show at all until now but it does not surprise me given the amount of cringe that came from MTV back then
I had a neighbor growing up who loved watching this, but I had never seen "our little show" until now, whoa, just wow!
Ahhh! I forgot about this show - thanks Jaime!
You and Bailey Sarian are the only TH-camrs I watch. Im so glad I found you. Going through a tough year and could use some light laughter every now and then.
Also, please review the 2006 film “Stick It” with Missy Peregrym.
If you like bailey you should watch Brittany Vaughn she's soooo funny
Jaime I love youuuu. Happy new year. Excited to watch this 💖💖
I remember watching Singled Out and I remember Jenny McCarthy being on it, but I had completely forgotten about Chris Hardwick being the host. 🤣 I always laughed way too much watching it.
I have a vague recollection of singled out. I always remember Chris was also a host because I used to listen to his podcast and whenever he had his best friends on and it came up, they would always tease him about it lol
I never forgot about this show! Lmao
Omg, please do more on this show 😂
I'm too young for all of these shows so it's so interesting to hear millennials explain them
Xennials 😊
These were definitely gen x, dont blame us
Thanks for unlocking this memory 🤣 I forgot how obsessed me n my older sister were with this show
GOD DANG this is a throwback. I would watch this despite being WAY TOO YOUNG (I was like...10), and genuinely thought this was what normal dating looked like and definitely thought I had ALL THIS TO LOOK FORWARD TO. Yikes. Also, I NEED to know where these people are now.
