Mobbed is an American hidden camera reality television show that premiered on FOX on March 31, 2011. The show was hosted by Howie Mandel, a well-known Canadian comedian, and television personality. The basic premise of the show revolved around large-scale surprise events planned by friends, family or loved ones, to share an important message or milestone with another loved one or friend. Each episode followed a story of one such person who is organizing the coordinated event, with the help of a team composed of choreographers, event planners, and other professionals. The surprises were always grand, with some of the events being held on a concert stage, in public places, like shopping malls, or even in stadiums.

Throughout the show's run, Mandel would help the guests plan the event to make sure it ran smoothly and according to plan. The guests would then proceed to plan and rehearse a large scale dance routine or another type of surprise event. Many of the participants in the show were also amateur performers, which added to the excitement of the show.

During the event, Mandel remained backstage, while the unsuspecting guest of honor would arrive and encounter the grand spectacle laid out before them. They would then be left absolutely stunned, trying to figure out what was happening. The show also used hidden cameras to capture the reactions of the guests of honor and their families, which added to the dramatic effect of the show.

The message of the events varied, ranging from marriage proposals to long-held secrets and confessions. Each event was planned with the intention of showing love and appreciation in some way - whether it was to reconcile with estranged family members, profess love to someone close to them, or to share news of a long-awaited pregnancy.

Mobbed was a unique show that was different from other reality shows by using the hidden camera approach. The show was produced by the same team behind American Idol, and it ran for a total of 11 episodes, with the last one airing on June 7, 2012. The show was watched by millions of viewers, thanks in part to the popular social media platforms, which allowed viewers to discuss and share their thoughts on the show.

While the show's run was brief, the impact it had on its viewers was significant. Many people felt inspired by the way the show managed to bring people together, show love and appreciation in creative ways, and highlight the importance of family and friends. Mobbed was a feel-good show that always ended on a positive note, thanks to the heartfelt message of each episode. It remains a memorable and unique reality show that left a lasting impression on those who watched it.

In conclusion, Mobbed from FOX starring Howie Mandel was an American hidden camera reality television show. The show was unique in that it revolved around large-scale surprise events staged by loved ones to share important messages or milestones with another loved one or friend. Each episode followed a different story, and the message varied but always brought people together.
