MTV's Blind-Date Comedy Returns With An All New Season Of "DISASTER DATE"

Hidden-Camera Series Returns to Weekday Afternoons, Starting June 28 at 5:30pm ET/PT

Just when singles everywhere thought it was safe to date again, "Disaster Date" returns to MTV for a third season with all new episodes and an all-star cast of improvisational actors, beginning Monday, June 28 at 5:30pm ET/PT.

MTV's hilarious hidden-camera series is back to give those who have endured bad blind dates a chance to settle the score.  "Disaster Date" sends their unsuspecting friends on blind dates, but what they don't know is that they are really being set up with an over-the-top actor who will bring their dating nightmares to life.  As the friends watch the entire date from the control room, they direct the actors by feeding them personal information about the dater that is guaranteed to create a disaster. 

Each blind date lasts 60 minutes, unless the dater can't put up with it anymore and decides to leave.  Humiliation has a price as the dater earns a dollar for every minute they stay on the date.  The series features a cast of talented improvisational actors that cycle through the series playing different characters no one would want to date, from a "mail order bride" to a "Tiger Woods wannabe." Some daters last the entire date, but others will flee before the clock runs out.  To preview "Disaster Date" please visit http://www.mtv.com/videos/misc/527758/disaster-date-season-3-trailer.jhtml#id=1641508
