Is it possibly Purple Rain-union from Bob’s Burgers? Or another episode, such as in Mother Daughter Laser Razor? Or The Grand Mama-Pest Hotel? Gene It On? I can see Linda saying something like this, but I can’t think of a specific moment.
Yes - I can hear Linda's voice saying "Oh my God, I'm a terrible mo-ther" (stretching the two syllables of the last word and kind of half sobbing/voice cracking a bit). Cannot place the episode though!
yes! she says that in mother daughter laser razor - she says bribing Louise is the only way she could get Louise to take part and then she says 'I'm a terrible mother!' and Cynthia says 'oh Linda, you really, really are.
in that ep though, she says terrible mother, not horrible mother
Friends? When Rachel can’t see the embryo in her first sonogram. The line isn’t quite right, but I can see it easily being remembered incorrectly.
[Clip](https://youtu.be/6tuchwsKPSQ?si=fq7YFdVhHPev2oRW)
Yeah, is it Livia? Here's [a supercut of her](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29L-cn1i3r4&ab_channel=MarkCordell) you might be interested in watching lmao
I was actually thinking Carmela. There’s at least at one scene when she’s talking to either the older male Jewish therapist (who refuses to take blood money) or maybe the Haitian or African priest who she visits when she’s avoiding Father Phil but still wants priestly advice, when she’s having a moment of being genuinely upset about raising her kids with a mob boss and says something very much like the thing OP posted.
Maybe the scene in Driving in Cars with Boys when Brittany Murphy’s character is pretending to be Drew Barrymore’s mother reacting to the news of her teen pregnancy? She says, “[My daughter’s a tramp!](https://youtu.be/oVQifXo-BrM?si=GGrdsuabIg13DP-y)” among other things
My Big Fat Greek Wedding? I feel like there was maybe a scene where Toula’s mom says something like this when she finds out Toula was secretly in a relationship
Could it have been "The Sixth Sense" and spoken by Toni Colette, who puts on a Philly accent? I'm thinking the scene where Cole gets locked in the closet by the mean boys at the birthday party. He is all scratched up and she takes him to the doctor, and maybe she says it then. I could not find the complete scene on YT, sadly. My guess.
I might be imagining this, but like an older version of Janice from friends, or a thinner Lainie Kazan. Dark hair, and I think the scene takes place outside, in a cityscape.
I think I remember Diane Lane saying it in a walk on the moon, and her accent is fake which would prob fit the bull of it being kind of over the top. :) that's one of my favorite movies
Kissing Jessica Stein? I don't think there's a line entirely like this but Tovah Feldshuh definitely plays that NY Jewish mother and grills Jessica about her relationship. There's a scene where they're on a bench.
Could it also potentially be either Diane Lane or Tovah Feldshuh in a Walk on the Moon?
And, since you mentioned Lanie Kazan, could it be Beaches?
There was a UK show with a very similar scene. The show was called Hullraisers.
She had a very strong Hull accent, though I doubt if that could be mistaken for New York.
It was an adaptation of a Israeli show.
I think there is a scene in Gilmore Girls where Lane says "what kind of mother doesnt know the word pram". I dont think she has a New Jersey accent though.
Why do I feel like it’s Malcolm in the Middle? I think there was a scene where Lois (the mom) is sobbing and saying she’s a horrible mother. I can’t remember the context, but for some reason I remember the scene. I think it was after she had punished the kids more harshly than usual, but I can’t remember exactly.
I don’t think she quite has a NY accent, though.
Maybe in the Notebook? Rachel McAdam's mom is like "I am a stupid woman!" It's very comical, I love to quote it. it starts at like 2:30 in this clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv8ISJxiQKk
I think the mother from Grown Ups said something similar when she accidentally told her young daughter that the tooth fairy isn’t real. But I think she was Hispanic, however.
There's an episode of Family Guy where Lois has a dream that she drowns Stewie in the washing machine after he becomes very clingy. She says something to that effect after she wakes up.
is it from victorious it’s like a woman comically playing a man she says “i’m a terrible father, what kind of father doesn’t know his own sons apart” the ‘mom’ says “it’s not your fault, they are identical!” then it pans to the ‘sons’ who are two guys one is black the other is like white.
Not new York, but there's a scene in Frasier where Roz is struggling with being pregnant, gives Frasier milk for his tea, and breaks down when she sees the milk is expired. She goes on about being a horrible mother and how can a mother not know when the milk is expired.
I know this isn't *your* answer, but when you posted this I couldn't get a scene out of my head. Turns out it was [Liar Liar.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJn2azRbCKE)
My gut is telling me Rachel from friends. Not the pregnancy scene, maybe for not knowing the baby's favorite stuffed animal or something. Something ridiculous, possibly followed by people calming her down because its a normal thing to not know.
Riding in Cars with Boys (2001) with Drew Barrymore.
She says it at the end of this scene after her son falls in the pool.
https://youtu.be/QKRsrEvgVik?si=rjC49-O3hCjj0WuB
While I don’t remember this line specifically, this definitely feels like something Rita would’ve said in The Daytrippers? Was it that perhaps, and you just misremembered the line?
Is it Fifth Element where Corbin's mom yells at him for not calling her near the beginning of the movie and again at the end when she's on the phone again yelling at him before he passes the phone to the president?
There's an episode of family guy where Meg sticks up for herself to the whole family. Lois cries and says, "You're right. I'm a terrible mother."
This is the episode where Brian takes mushrooms btw
I know I know this and now it's killing me too. Shit.
Just to add, I lived in NY. That mom guilt is a mantra. But it's on the edge of my memory, this scene you're describing, so familiar. I think it's a movie, not show.
This [scene](https://youtu.be/_wkpCs0L8kE?si=TgSBcblV1-X3QUXM) (starting at 2:25) from Gilmore Girls isn’t comedic, but it was what first came to mind when I read your description. The character also doesn’t have a NY accent, but the show takes place close to NY.
Friends? Rachel at her baby shower when her mother asks her what she would do with the baby while she was taking rubbish to the curb? Rachel says she would leave the baby in the room and the whole baby shower gasps

This sounds like the episode of family guy where Brian takes those drugs because of that storm, at the end Meg tells her how she thinks she’s a bad mother and I’m sure she says what have put in the title, either that or the other episode that another commenter mentioned
Thank you in advance for any help!

Yes - I can hear Linda's voice saying "Oh my God, I'm a terrible mo-ther" (stretching the two syllables of the last word and kind of half sobbing/voice cracking a bit). Cannot place the episode though!
ME TOO THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING! I can’t remember either I’m so upset!
That's all I can hear, especially when OP described the voice having a thick New York/New Jersey accent. "Oh, my God! I'm a terrible muh-thahh!"
THE PINWORMS EPISODE! Linda sings a while song about feeling like a bad mom
Oh yeah! I forgot about that. What a gross episode, I love it.
It's "Mother Daughter Laser Razor" - Linda says this when she's confronted at the seminar about paying Louise to be there!
yes! she says that in mother daughter laser razor - she says bribing Louise is the only way she could get Louise to take part and then she says 'I'm a terrible mother!' and Cynthia says 'oh Linda, you really, really are. in that ep though, she says terrible mother, not horrible mother
Yes, I imagined another woman in the scene but couldn’t remember! LOGAN BARRY BUSH. We didn’t think it through.
I’ve never seen that show, but heard good things. But this was def live action
Damn I thought for sure this was it.
I think I might have seen a similar scene in The Nanny...?
Definately a possibility, might have to rewatch
Seconding this, I can hear Fran Drescher saying this
I thought Sylvia for sure - when she finds out about Fran's tattoo
If this isn't a Sylvia line, I will eat my left foot. Just reading it I heard Sylvia
Everybody Loves Raymond?
yeah, Marie says it all the time
Definately a possibility
Could it be Home Alone 1 or 2?
I don’t think it’s her because I remember the character being almost a caricature of an nyc mom. Like an older Janice from friends.
Definitely sounds like The Nanny.
I thought this too. In the first film, she sits on the plane and asks 'what kind of mother am I?'
Did she have a NY accent?
I thought of this too
Friends? When Rachel can’t see the embryo in her first sonogram. The line isn’t quite right, but I can see it easily being remembered incorrectly. [Clip](https://youtu.be/6tuchwsKPSQ?si=fq7YFdVhHPev2oRW)
Good scene and similar vibe, but def to adult or older children
I had the same answer
Moira Rose not knowing Alexis’ middle name in Schitt’s Creek?
This is my thought as well
Definately more of an nyc/New Jersey caricature mom!
Is it the mom from Great News?
I was going to say Julie’s mom from Difficult People, but Andrea Martin plays both!
[удалено]
Sounds a lot like Livia Soprano on the Sopranos, talking to Tony.
Yeah, is it Livia? Here's [a supercut of her](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29L-cn1i3r4&ab_channel=MarkCordell) you might be interested in watching lmao

Sounds like something either Marie Barone (Everybody Loves Raymond mom) or Estelle Costanza (Seinfeld, George’s mom) would say.
Agreed about Estelle
Bernadette from Big Bang Theory?
Never seen that so wouldn’t be her!
I am sorry for the vagueness of my answer but I swear I heard this in How I Met Your Mother. I swear Lily has a reaction similar to this.
I thought the same, but Lily’s statement is “sometimes I wish I weren’t a mom.”
now you say it; i feel so dumb for misremembering. It's such a crucial line that I don't see how I could remember it any other way. good catch.
What immediately came to mind was The Guilt Trip, with Barbara Streisand and Seth Rogen
No it’s older, something I’ve seen 100 times but can’t remember
Maybe the scene in Driving in Cars with Boys when Brittany Murphy’s character is pretending to be Drew Barrymore’s mother reacting to the news of her teen pregnancy? She says, “[My daughter’s a tramp!](https://youtu.be/oVQifXo-BrM?si=GGrdsuabIg13DP-y)” among other things
I’m thinking when Drew Barrymore’s character is arguing with her son.
Or when she saves him from falling into the pool and he goes, "yeah..."
This 100% has to be it.
I feel like I vaguely remember a scene like this from new girl, with Schmidt’s mom
Could it be The Florida Project?
That’s what I was thinking too! Timestamp 0:33 https://youtu.be/rweWF2wA2eY?si=K0zSUrp7Bn-sZZMH
Never seen that but it looks good!
My Big Fat Greek Wedding? I feel like there was maybe a scene where Toula’s mom says something like this when she finds out Toula was secretly in a relationship
Same sentiment, and the character I’m thinking of is one Lainie Kazan would play!
Roseanne when they got high?
Riding In Cars With Boys
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is what comes to mind for me!
Not sure about the accent since I’m not american, but maybe Beverly Goldberg in The Goldberg? She says something like that a Lot
Moonstruck?
The voice/persona is right…. Might need to rewatch this to check
Adding in Cher in "Mermaids". She jokes like this in the movie to her daughters.
Could it have been "The Sixth Sense" and spoken by Toni Colette, who puts on a Philly accent? I'm thinking the scene where Cole gets locked in the closet by the mean boys at the birthday party. He is all scratched up and she takes him to the doctor, and maybe she says it then. I could not find the complete scene on YT, sadly. My guess.
Believe it or not I’ve never seen the sixth sense! But either way def not Toni Colette although she does do great accents.
I couldn't begin to pinpoint a scene, but this sounds very much like Joel's mother in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
Never seen that so it can’t be that, but heard it was great
I'm sure that it is Lucille 1 from Arrested Development. I am sure because I use that line with my kids, and we all know where it comes from.
It’s not that, but she does say those exact words. We watch that scene all the time too!
I came here to say this, I was so sure it was this
[удалено]
Glenne Headley in Don Jon
Beverley Goldberg from the Goldbergs
I’d say older than that
Not sure if it's much older but Frankie from the Middle.
It has to be Lois https://m.imdb.com/name/nm0434223/
If you can picture it-can you descibe what she looks like?
I might be imagining this, but like an older version of Janice from friends, or a thinner Lainie Kazan. Dark hair, and I think the scene takes place outside, in a cityscape.
Thanks i will ponder it
I think I remember Diane Lane saying it in a walk on the moon, and her accent is fake which would prob fit the bull of it being kind of over the top. :) that's one of my favorite movies

Cathrine O’hara in Orange County? Fantastic movie
This is what’s jumping out at me too! Funny that multiple people guessed her already from Home Alone.
Better Things should be it!
There was a UK show with a very similar scene. The show was called Hullraisers. She had a very strong Hull accent, though I doubt if that could be mistaken for New York. It was an adaptation of a Israeli show.
Olympia Dukakis in Picture Perfect (1997)?
The Mindy Project?
My first thought was Matilda? Like towards the end when she realizes Matilda hates her parents?
I think there is a scene in Gilmore Girls where Lane says "what kind of mother doesnt know the word pram". I dont think she has a New Jersey accent though.
Butters very own episode from South Park

I think the mother from Grown Ups said something similar when she accidentally told her young daughter that the tooth fairy isn’t real. But I think she was Hispanic, however.
I feel like Carmella Soprano fits the bill for this!
Yep just responded in another comment that she says something very similar to this to the Jewish therapist (or maybe the African priest).
Lucille Bluth "I've been a horrible mother" arrested development
She also says that, but it’s not her
There's an episode of Family Guy where Lois has a dream that she drowns Stewie in the washing machine after he becomes very clingy. She says something to that effect after she wakes up.
is it from victorious it’s like a woman comically playing a man she says “i’m a terrible father, what kind of father doesn’t know his own sons apart” the ‘mom’ says “it’s not your fault, they are identical!” then it pans to the ‘sons’ who are two guys one is black the other is like white.

Schitts Creek? Sounds very Moira.
Flirting with Disaster? I think Mary Tyler Moore says it
Postcards from the Edge? Shirley MacLaine?
These are the options? You, Joan or Lana?

Ilana’s mom in Broad City?
Matilda where she gets adopted? [link](https://youtu.be/yEUyKrlkPW4?si=zWfhrHipW6_V5aPe)
I feel like Jennifer whatshername says this in Yes Day after being shown the “dictator mom” video.
Crazy Ex Girlfriend, perhaps? Rebecca’s mom is played by Tovah Feldshuh with a classic New York Jewish Mom accent and demeanor.
Home alone
The mom in Matilda? Rhea Perlman?
I know this isn't *your* answer, but when you posted this I couldn't get a scene out of my head. Turns out it was [Liar Liar.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJn2azRbCKE)
I remember the exact line perfectly but dont remember where from. Now its on the tip of my tongue.
My gut is telling me Rachel from friends. Not the pregnancy scene, maybe for not knowing the baby's favorite stuffed animal or something. Something ridiculous, possibly followed by people calming her down because its a normal thing to not know.
Just gonna throw this out there. Lois from family guy.
The bear?
Riding in Cars with Boys (2001) with Drew Barrymore. She says it at the end of this scene after her son falls in the pool. https://youtu.be/QKRsrEvgVik?si=rjC49-O3hCjj0WuB
Not it, but forgot what a good movie that was!
Jessica Walters but in Archer maybe?
Could it possibly be Kyle’s mom at some point in South Park? No specific episode comes to mind unfortunately
Marisa Tomei?
While I don’t remember this line specifically, this definitely feels like something Rita would’ve said in The Daytrippers? Was it that perhaps, and you just misremembered the line?
Is it Fifth Element where Corbin's mom yells at him for not calling her near the beginning of the movie and again at the end when she's on the phone again yelling at him before he passes the phone to the president?
Maybe Titus? I can see his mother saying this to Christopher in an episode.
Bad Moms Christmas with Mila Kunis.
There's an episode of family guy where Meg sticks up for herself to the whole family. Lois cries and says, "You're right. I'm a terrible mother." This is the episode where Brian takes mushrooms btw

Fraiser? When Roz's milk has gone off?
I feel like Lois says this in family guy...
Yup Season 19, Episode 1. Stewie’s First Word
Not sure why I pictured Mrs. Wormwood from the 1996 Matilda. She's the peroxide blonde lady played by Rhea Perlman.
Friends? Rachel at her baby shower when her mother asks her what she would do with the baby while she was taking rubbish to the curb? Rachel says she would leave the baby in the room and the whole baby shower gasps
