Mettaton's show was running in the Underground during Papyrus' date. Though, based on Papyrus' words, it was a bad episode running at the time. Check the TV during his date.

So it still makes sense as a memory question. Frisk didn't watch it, but they very well could have.

Plus, this is supposed to look like a normal quiz show on the surface, and a "malfunctioning robot" beyond that. (I mean, once you start counting 50+ flies in a jar, you know he's trying to make you lose) So it wouldn't even be that far of a stretch to say that Mettaton purposefully picked an episode Frisk didn't watch, in the guise of a memory question for your typical contestant-Like, say, someone who lives around Hotland.. Who watches Mettaton.. Who would have seen the episode.
