Farmer Wants A Wife

This reality dating show has similarities to "The Bachelor" and other titles in the genre, but there are four bachelors---all farmers. And the five women chosen by each farmer get to live on the farm for the weeks that the series runs. These women are more citified (to use a rural term) but think they are amenable to the farm life.

Of course farm life is not easy, so the women get to try their hands at mucking stalls, feeding cattle, and any of the myriad of tasks that farmers do routinely. Some of the reactions are comical, but the women really try.

There is also time for some group dating and one-on-one dating, when they can explore their compatibilities and ask more personal questions. Or two-step.

Unlike some other shows, everyone gets along remarkably well. No cat fights or backstabbing. That will make the show too tame for some viewers. But I find it mildly entertaining.

I like it but something doesn't add up with this show. There are 4 women left for each farmer and all of them including the farmer keep making remarks about a lack of talking and 1 on 1 time after 3 weeks. How could that be? Are the women just sitting in the house all day while the farmer works. I don't think they are actually living together 24/7. I think the women are in a hotel most of the time and spend limited time with the farmers, which would explain the comments from everyone involved. Show is most likely a fraud but I can't find proof or testimony on the internet either way. Anyone know?

This is not the worst reality dating show that I've seen however the levels of cringe are still pretty high.

I just can't get over how desperate most these women seem to be. A week in and most of the girls haven't so much as kissed their prospective cowboys but they are straight up losing their minds and making complete fools out of themselves whenever their cowboy so much as talks to one of the other women.

Like, you willingly went on a show where you knew you would be dating a man who would be dating multiple other women. So why are these women acting like they had no idea it would be like this?

Then you have the cowboys themselves who I have to admit so far all seem to be pretty nice guys aside from maybe one but they also seem to be fairly clueless and a week in its really no wonder they are all single. Some of the women though are giving me major Fatal Attraction vibes and others are obviously just there because they weren't attractive enough to get on The Bachelor and this was their only shot to be on TV.

I watch a lot of reality shows like The Bachelor or Love is Blind. This show is different, but not any better. The dates are lame, it moves slow. Shoveling hay or castrating bulls is not my idea of a date. Obviously these are thrown in there for "farm interaction", but it's not very interesting to watch. Give me a helicopter ride to a private beach anyday, lol.

There are too many farmers and, accordingly, there is very small snippets of any kind of connection between them and all the women, 5 episodes in.

Also, the Narrator is so very annoying.

"And, over in Oklahoma, Landon and his 4 remaining women are going on a picnic!!"

Obviously, as the viewer, we can see "the action", and we don't need someone (the Narrator) pointing it out. The Narrator should only be there during eliminations.

I looked forward to watching this show every year. Not watching again.

It has become worse than love island, married at first sight.

This year it went beyond uncomfortable.

Farmers carrying on with 5 different women. In bath tubs, covered in paint kissing everyone Going nude, Who would want to marry Any of these sleazey guys. And the women had no shame they were on the wrong show.

We expected this for married at fist sight but at least it's one on one.

This is not a family show. They need to go back to the farm. No wonder they are on their own.

Only one farmer had the right idea find your girl and get off the show early with his new love.

It would be hard to marry a farmer after watching some of these tv images and think you would have a happy life.

Some ladies to good for this show it is degrading.
