Farmer Wants A Wife

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 had hoped the US version would be different than season 10 of the Australian series. The prior seasons on the Australian version were very good.

In prior seasons they picked four women to start with and throughout the series they received a message telling them they had to send one women home. I don't think they should have the option to send one home or not. I feel it is giving some women false hope. They came there, looking for love as well, not to be a group of friends following a farmer around.

They didn't have special one on ones every week. They can have one on ones while they are working on the farm. They don't need to wait for that one special date. They should know after a couple weeks if there's a spark or not.

Also, I would love to see more of the work done on the farm. That gives a real indication if they will be able to handle life on the farm. Maybe show them doing jobs by themselves.

I did NOT like all the drama between all the women especially at group events. I can get this on so many of the other reality shows that I don't even consider watching.

However, I really do like the series.

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 :)

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.
