''Flavor of Love'' (2006-2008) is a Creator/VH1 "Celebreality" show. It centers around Music/PublicEnemy hype man and LargeHam Flavor Flav finding true love, after his breakup with Brigitte Nielsen. 20 girls were to compete for his heart until only one remained. It resulted in not one, but ''three'' seasons, each with a new supply of girls. [[HilarityEnsues Hilarity ensued]].

** New York criticized Smiley for the latter dumping her emotions on the other contestants (while also saying that Smiley has way too much emotional baggage). This is coming from the same one who acts crazy and gets too emotional when Flav even interacts with other women (something that even Hoopz pointed out in the finale).

** While New York's mother is an annoying controlling bitch towards her adult daughter, she has good reasons for not wanting New York to be with Flav. For starters, Flav has no respect for women. He's middle aged with a lot of children, and is old enough to be her father. He's had issues paying child support in the past too and he also acts like a ManChild. Also, NY's mother [[{{Foreshadowing}} mentions the possibility of Flav dumping New York again]] ("What if he doesn't pick you? That would be an egg on your face again"), and she's proven right when Flav dumps New York. ''Twice.''

** At the end, it turns out that ''Flavor Flav'' comes off as this due to only agreeing to do the show for publicity, while criticizing some contestants for only coming on the show for fame. Though arguably he had been a hypocrite from the jump, having multiple girlfriends yet eliminating contestants for having feelings for their exes, and eliminating Sweetie for setting boundaries when he later claims he loves "the chase."

As a result of a TRS decision, Kick The Son Of A Bitch is no longer a trope


* KickTheSonOfABitch: Bootz may have been a bully, but New York's behavior got so bad in the second season that even some of her fans wanted security at the reunion to let Bootz go so she could fight New York.

Removing complaining from the description.


The show is SoBadItsGood, and goes ''way'' beyond BileFascination and right back to CrazyIsCool. Oh, and? The season 1 girls weren't told they'd be dating Flavor Flav, ''until they'd already been cast.''

Each contestant is given a nickname by Flav (he's admittedly not good with names) and is referred to by that nickname for as long as she remains on VH-1. The contestants compete for intimate dates with Flav by partaking in various challenges, ranging from silly to ridiculous. At the end of each episode, the show features a clock ceremony where contestants receive gold clocks to wear around their necks. Flav brings the few remaining women's parents on in the third or second to last episode. Finally, the season finale takes place in a tropical destination: the finalists and Flav spend the last two days at a luxurious resort preceding his final decision.

* {{Corpsing}}: It's pretty obvious that the producers were egging New York and Hoopz on to keep arguing in the season one finale when they try to hide the fact that they're laughing unironically.
