Comedian Pauly Shore will host CMT’s Meet the In-Laws, a new series that follows newly engaged couples who have agreed to learn more about their fiancee’s family by each spending a week alone with their future in-laws. The ten episode series premieres in January 2011.
In each one-hour episode of Meet the In-Laws, two lovebirds from differing backgrounds agree to move in to the home of their fiancee’s parents. Once there, they are grilled about everything from their religious beliefs to their future career plans, as the in-laws try to get to know them better and decide if they are right for their son or daughter. While in their home, the son or daughter-in-law live by the house rules and participate in family activities and meals in an attempt to acclimate to their new family dynamic. At the end of the week, the couples are reunited and share their stories. Host Shore adds his comedic flare to the series by delivering his commentary throughout each episode.
