Momsters was a television show that aired on Investigation Discovery between 2014 and 2015. The show focused on mothers who had committed shocking and disturbing crimes. Each episode of the show featured two cases in which mothers had acted as the villains or the perpetrators.

The crimes committed by the mothers on Momsters ranged from murder and kidnapping to embezzlement and fraud. One of the most disturbing aspects of the show was the fact that the mothers often involved their own children in their crimes. For example, a mother might force her child to participate in a burglary or use them to help cover-up a murder.

The show was hosted by Roseanne Barr, best known for her role in the hit television show Roseanne. Barr provided commentary and insights into the cases featured on the show. She also spoke to experts in the field of criminology and psychology to try to understand what motivated these mothers to commit such heinous crimes.

One of the most memorable episodes of the show was about a mother and daughter who worked together to rob a bank. The mother had been a former employee at the bank and provided her daughter with inside information. The two of them managed to steal over $18,000 before they were caught by the police.

Another episode featured a mother who had murdered her own daughter. The mother had been suffering from postpartum depression and had become overwhelmed by the demands of motherhood. She had also been taking drugs and was not in a stable mental state when she committed the crime.

Momsters was unique in that it explored the darker side of motherhood and challenged the traditional notion of the nurturing, caring mother. The show highlighted the fact that mothers, like anyone else, were capable of committing terrible crimes. It also raised questions about the pressures and expectations placed on mothers and how these might contribute to their criminal behavior.

Despite the controversial subject matter, the show was well-received by viewers and critics alike. Many praised the show for its honesty and willingness to explore the uncomfortable truths about motherhood and crime. However, some critics argued that the show was exploitative and sensationalistic, taking advantage of people's fascination with true crime stories.

Whether you loved it or hated it, Momsters was a unique addition to the true crime genre. It tackled a subject that had rarely been explored on television and provided a new perspective on the lives of mothers who had committed crimes. While the show only ran for one season, it left a lasting impression on those who watched it.

Momsters is a series that is currently running and has 2 seasons (14 episodes). The series first aired on November 28, 2014.
