TV viewers are losing their minds over Fox’s new bizarre reality TV series Labor of Love, which “takes dating to mating.” Premiering on Thursday, the series offers a truly unique twist on the reality TV genre as 15 men compete to impregnate a single woman, unsurprisingly leading to plenty of raised eyebrows and hilarious remarks on social media.

Hosted by actress Kristin Davis, the series follows 41-year-old Kristy Katzmann’s “unconventional journey toward potential love and motherhood,” according to the official press release. Although she may seem to have it all – success, beauty, brains – there is one major thing missing from her life: a baby. Ready to take on the new role of mom and start a family, but with no father in mind, Labor of Love sees Katzman matched with 15 men ready to get into touch with their paternal instincts.
