Ten women. One farmer. A bunch of livestock. Is this any way to find true love? The CW certainly hopes so. The network will unveil its new hog-eat-hog reality show, Farmer Wants a Wife, on Wednesday, April 30, at 9 p.m., after America’s Next Top Model. The show, which has been a hit in several European countries, will chronicle the romantic journey of a Missouri farmer who seeks that special someone to hoe around with. His fish-out-of-water female suitors — who hail from the big city — must compete in barn-based challenges like rounding up chickens. At the end of each elimination ceremony, the contestant without an egg under her assigned hen is sent packing. Are you getting the feeling that we’re going to be having fun with this show ’til the cows come home?

hi
what can of question is this?
i cannot wait ot see this show!!! finally it is on – i’ll be wearing my daisy dukes in anticipation!!!
My friend is on this show! YEs finally it has come out! Its suppose to be hilarious!
Sounds like the Dirty Cows show from England. I like that name better, should have kept that along with the whole premiss.
this show has been huge in europe. dunno why but we like to watch a hookup that is a little more sensere than the bachelor. love the hillbillies
I think i’ll watch city girls on a farm. They have no idea what they are in for…how many girls from the city even know how to milk a cow? Most people don’t even appreciate farmers but I bet they appreciate their milk everyday.
Who even cares about Veronica Mars? I’d much rather watch city girls on a farm. Catching chickens…GOOD LUCK!! ha! ha!
The picture is in itself ridiculous… What a joke!
People don’t appreciate what farmers do. If it weren’t for them none of us would be eating. Trust me, this farmer is hot…he is from my hometown.
this show is way hot in the netherlands…i cant wait to see it!!! I wish it would come to canada…let those city slickers try and rough it up here where the real farmers live
hey elle, who was your friend on the show? i was the key production assistant.
I ACTUALLY KNOW THE GIRL IN THIS PIC AND SHE MAY LIVE IN CALI NOW BUT SHE CAM FROM VERY SMALL TOWN, USA.
