What do you think? Do you like the Farmer Wants a Wife TV series on FOX? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a third season?
It’s a refreshing change from the Bachelor, which is too low brow.
I am a male and I hate the other dating shows. I really enjoy this show and everyone seems real and not fake. Renew
We enjoy this show. Not so trashy, seems like more normal people for the most part. Jennifer is a good show host.
Great Series! Can’t wait to view the next show.
