Watch Mama's mayo-phobia take hold in this 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' clip

In a show dedicated to weird moments, this may be one of the weirdest

If you've missed "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" since the first season ended, take heart. Not only is the show back for an oddly timed Halloween special Sun. Jan. 6 at 9:00 p.m. (upcoming specials include a Thanksgiving-themed show Sun. Jan. 13, a clip show Sun. Feb. 10, and a Christmas special Sun. Feb. 17), this latest episode features a very weird highlight -- Mama's mayo phobia. Yes, she's afraid of that staple of redneck cuisine, mayonnaise. Watch this clip to see her personal struggle. With mayo. Also of interest? The family debate over whether or not mayo is a form of meat. 

In the special, the girls force Mama to face her fear, Alana shares spooky stories that probably aren't all that scary, a pumpkin carving incident ends with Uncle Poodle getting stuck inside a pumpkin and the entire family getting lost in a corn maze. Just admit it; you know you want to watch it.

    You know something? I come to this site because more often than not THIS CRAP isn't covered here. You guys are all fairly intelligent writers and I appreciate that.

    Please don't cover this show. It's sickening and crass and represents the WORST qualities of televised entertainment today.

    • I would think the solution is rather simple -- don't click, don't read, don't watch. Enjoy the other content on the site. Your problem is solved.

      HundleyFan Love the back-handed compliment, Max. Isn't it nice to know, Liane, that you are among the "fairly intelligent" writers working for HitFix?

      You know what else I love? I love this show. Why? Because they don't apologize for who they are. They may not be your or my idea of the ideal nuclear family, but they're together, and what comes through loud and clear is that there's a lot of love there.

      Jeeesus Christ, I don't know what to make of your post. I really don't. You gotta be jo... but maybe not? You've mastered the art of subtle confusion. I don't even

      dummypants I am an intelligent person who enjoys highbrow TV and normally eschews reality TV. You would never find me watching any version of any Kardashian show. However, I love this effed up family! I can't wait for the holiday specials - you better redneckonize!

    • Thank you, Hundleyfan -- and excellent defense of Mama and the gang.

      HundleyFan Mahmoud:

      I'm confused by your seemingly incomplete post.

      Make no mistake. I was not joking. I love "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" for all the reasons I stated in my initial post.
