Farmer Wants A Wife

First of all these guys have some very nice horses!! Love watching this show so much better than bachelor and bachelorette!! Much more realistic not all the producer editing and women just trying to get media attention!! The guys are good ole country boys which I love and very sweet. One might be kind of a player but the other 3 seem to be really set in their goal of finding love. I think this show they might actually find true love. Not all the drama that the have on the bachelor which I won't watch anymore. These guys are taking their time and being a lot more realistic in this show. They value the girls feelings a lot more.

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 know, I know everyone see's the title and thinks another version of the Bachelor or Love Island, but it's not. This show has been running for many seasons in Australia now and has 10 successful relationships which are still running strong.

Of course it's about entertainment and some parts can be a bit hard to watch but this show has a real heart, and it is actually trying to build relationships. It's an alternative to the swipe left or right dating scene that's sadly taken over our modern world.

Give it a chance, you might enjoy it, and if you get hooked on the US version you might want to take a peek at the Aussie one :)

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.
