Hell Date is a popular dating show on Black Entertainment Television (BET) with a unique twist.

Plot

The show starts with one unsuspecting dater telling the viewers who his/her ideal mate is. This individual thinks that he/she is on a standard dating show, such as "Blind Date", where both daters have gone on a TV show to look for love. However, in this case the second dater is actually an actor portraying a genuine dater. This actor, known as a "Hell Dater", portrays a character who has an incredibly annoying personality trait which is typical of the single worst date that most people have ever been on.

As the date progresses, the Hell Dater becomes increasingly more extreme in their off-putting behavior, making life more and more miserable for the unsuspecting dater. Finally, the victimized dater is put out of their misery when a midget dressed as a devil pokes them with a pitchfork and informs them that that they are on a "hell date".

Some of the episodes have featured a Mama's Boy Hell Dater, overly competitive Hell Dater, the Hell Dater who is on the rebound and the gross Hell Dater with bad eating habits.

Some of the popular actors on Hell Date are: Zakiya "Kiya" Roberts, Zainab, Symone, Mona, Donnivin, Keedar, Farrelle, Michael, and many more.

Buddha from I Love New York 2 appeared on an episode of Hell Date.
