Summary

Mother's Day 2022 is nearly upon us, and if you haven't made a brunch reservation by this point, you're probably screwed. However, we have made something for you that you can pass on to Mom that's much better than an omelet and a macaroni collage: it's the TV Mom Thunderdome! We have selected 27 TV mothers to face off in a series of three-combatant elimination rounds. By the end of the episode, we will have determined which is the mother to end all mothers, which we will know for sure because she ended all the other mothers. Listen to find out if your favorite TV mom can go the distance:

1:12.5	I think we were respectful of everyone else's known preferences. There weren't any hurt feelings
