seacliffsal March 29 Share March 29 I was really hoping that the women who threatened to leave had left. I wonder if the producers talked them out of it with some type of incentive. I still like Brandon and Nathan, but the more I see Ty and Mitchell the less I like them. Ty especially was peeved that the existing women did not warmly welcome the new woman. What? Does he think that he's such a catch that the women should be happy to stay there no matter who he brings in? I was surprised that all of the farmers brought the new women home. McKenzie I understand as she was there at the beginning but then left due to an emergency. Okay, I'm grumpy, but I needed someone, anyone, to go home this episode. Have some dignity. Or they should have had the men eliminate someone. So, I guess, nothing really happened this episode except 4 more people were inserted into this mess. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/136643-farmer-wants-a-wife-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-8327844

seacliffsal April 5 Share April 5 I don't understand why the farmers are so hesitant to send women home with whom they do not feel a 'connection.' It seems obvious that a few of the women could be eliminated and it would not affect the farmers at all. Brooke overestimated their 'connection' by demanding that Ty sent someone home. Ty also should have seen the signs that Ashley really doesn't want to live on a farm when she walked away from the camel activity. But, she got the 'fireworks' date so that probably means he'll pick her at the end. Also, is it only me who wonders why people make out during personalized fireworks shows? I would so be 'let me watch the show...' Just me then? Alrighty... I wonder if Joy and her sister had some traumatic event in their lives that left them from feeling some emotions? She seems nice and that she wants to fit in, but as she stated during her date with Brandon, she just doesn't feel things. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/136643-farmer-wants-a-wife-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-8333888

She seemed to present that she had a happy, shiny childhood but somehow I don't think so. I fell asleep during the show, never a good sign, and when I woke up a farmer appeared to be crying. But I didn't care enough to rewind and find out why, also not a good sign. All these guys seems perfectly happy to have a harem in their houses. Brooke sour-pussed her way right out. Otherwise, I don't think he would have bothered to send her home either. And again I say, none of these women should be this desperate for a relationship.

bunnyface April 12 Share April 12 (edited) I've come to the conclusion that this show is never going to end. Next week, we will narrow it down to the TWO FINAL LADIES. There still has to be a final lady after that...in October or whenever they drag this out to. It appears they are all choosing THE WRONG ONE but hopefully that's misdirection. I think poor Sydney shot herself in the foot when she said she wanted to have time alone with whatshisname and "adventures" before she settled down and had kids. No potential grandparents asking about grandkids want to hear that. Whereas the other one said she wanted to pop out a kid tomorrow, which is a grandparent bingo card. ETA: And Ashley (?) had to go back to work tomorrow or lose her job? So she expected to come in and sew the guy up and make him lose all the other women in a week and uproot her whole life?

seacliffsal April 12 Share April 12 Well, Ashley got her 15 minutes...did she really agree to participate knowing that she would lose her job if she exceeded her vacation days? Or did she realize that Ty is a dud and just wanted out of there (especially as she didn't even try during the camel experience last week). As for Joy, I think there has to be more to her story. She has epilepsy so doesn't care when others are in pain? I would think she would be more understanding and sympathetic towards others as she would understand how debilitating pain can be. But, I really didn't like Emerson rolling her eyes while Joy was answering questions (about make up and malls) and then belittling her (oh, and Emerson? When someone says 'no offense' it's because they know they are totally offending someone). I think Gracie is the best bet for Brandon but he may choose Joy. For someone who likes hunting, I was surprised that Sydney said deer meat instead of venison. That made me go "hmmmm." I liked watching the family interactions.

janey99 April 16 Share April 16 I just started watching the show and I've only watched three episodes but I'm stuggling to figure out a couple of the farmers. Brandon, OK, he's a potato and barley farmer and that seems legit. Nathan, he's a citrus and cattle farmer, also seems legit. However, Ty is a team roper - what exactly does that mean? Is he a competitive team roper so he travels around to roping competitions and is essentially a horse show professional (possibly with his daughter who looked like she runs barrels)? Or, is he a cowboy for hire who actually travels to cattle ranches to rope calves in different seasons for various reasons? In either case it seems like he isn't really a farmer and would probably travel a lot. Where would his wife fit in? Mitchell, exactly what is he? He bought a big piece of property and what exactly does he do on it? The scene where he unloads his "new horse" was cringey. That poor little thing was lame behind and looked smaller than Ty's daughter's pony. He was also hanging off its mouth terribly when he was circling it around with his feet practically dragging on the ground. 5 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/136643-farmer-wants-a-wife-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-8342971

I wonder if Nathan will eliminate the others and try to get back with her after her father's condition stabilizes. I guess this episode was just full of surprises for me as I didn't think Mitchell was going to eliminate Kiana. I liked her, but I haven't really cared for Mitchell the entire season, so I think it's better for her that she left.

eclectcmoi April 22 Share April 22 Mitchell - I think he will choose Kait because his mother likes her, but I think Sydney is a better fit for him and the farm, hunting life. And what was Kiana wearing on her final date with Mitchell? That denim dress/skirt was cut up to her hoohaw and she kept trying to pull it over as not to expose herself. Brandon was blindsided by Joy choosing to go home. I really think she would've been his unfortunate final pick. I think he'll choose Emerson. Ty - I think will choose Megan. She's said she's okay with being a bonus mom and might not wants her own kids. I really can't remember who else is left with him. Nathan - not sure who he will choose, but I see zero chemistry between him and Allye. Definitely friend zone in spite of their final date. He did seem to really like Mackenzie so maybe he'll meet up with her after the show if his pick doesn't work out. Full disclosure here...

bunnyface April 26 Share April 26 I like Grace, I really do. But I'm afraid he's going to discount her because she is so close with her family. He said several times it's 4 hours to the airport. I assume Albuquerque. Denver would be over the mountains but ABQ is a fairly straight shot south. Anyway, 4 hours to the airport and back is a full day away from work for him and I don't think he wants to, or can, do that a whole lot. I grew up 8 hours away from extended family, so I can be done, obviously, but I don't think he wants to do that. Which is a shame because she seems the most normal. But being so close to her family seems to be a sticking point he keeps mentioning. It was interesting to see Melody on ice skates. It would also be interesting to see her in a work environment, but as a traveling nurse, that's probably not possible. But it was nice to see a different side of her. Suddenly, with her family, Sydney seems a lot younger. I like her but I think she needs some "adventures" still, which she stated to his parents. We only got half the home visits this week. So the other half next week. Then another week for decisions? And a another week for a reunion show? Maybe something actually worked out if they have a reunion show to do, which they didn't do last year.

Is Granny going to come to the farm and take care of a kid? Granny wants to play Canasta and go to lunch with friends. Babysitting wears off, especially in isolation. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/136643-farmer-wants-a-wife-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-8352343

Some of the farms are hours away from anything so if you are a professional like a nurse or a teacher or whatever and want to keep working how would that work, is the woman supposed to just give up her career? I would want to know what my duties would be as a farmers wife, like I am driving a tractor, harvesting fruit or branding cattle, so many questions that these women are not asking. So all these farmers have houses full of women and not one woman says anything about how they all have to share a bathroom, who is cleaning since the make up and hair have got to be everywhere, lol. Not one woman is baking a pie or making a cake for any of the farmers...the way to a man's heart, etc... I didn't think the families helped any of the farmers figure out who they should pick, it was just another level of confusion. I have a cousin who is currently being vetted for a dating show, it is such a lengthy process I cannot imagine going thru all of that if you really are not in it to win it, most of these women seem like they just want to be on TV. From the looks of some, where’s the closet Starbucks, Sephora and hairdressers? Fifty miles away? This show does not seem realistic. You are right. What is expected of them? Are they cooking now? I didn’t see. I just see them sitting drinking coffee.

You are right. What is expected of them? Are they cooking now? I didn’t see. I just see them sitting drinking coffee. To be fair, we did see the ladies cooking dinner together a few times, so one could assume they did that regularly. They did "help" with chores a few times for the camera. We can only hope they actually helped off camera also and got an idea of the life. Because yeah, they will be doing farm work. The only two towns I can remember are Sikeston, MO, which is a fair sized town and Center, Colorado. It has about 2,000 people. I grew up in a town of about 2,000 and even back then we had some of them so-called beauty shops. I hear they even have one of them there coffee shops now. So amenities aren't that hard to come by these days. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/136643-farmer-wants-a-wife-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-8352491
seacliffsal April 26 Share April 26 I just felt kind of sad after watching this episode. I think Brandon and Nathan really do want to find a partner, but I don't get the sense that this will end positively for them. Quite frankly, if someone truly wanted to find love (and in fact did so), raise a family, and enjoy life on a farm-there could be a happy ending. But, I don't know if any of these women truly want that. Next week will just be more of the same and I'm almost embarrassed to admit that I still don't know everyone's names. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/136643-farmer-wants-a-wife-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-8352564
ms gilly April 26 Share April 26 Not getting the impression that any of the 4 women shown in this first home visit episode are the chosen ones. Seemed like Mitchell could not look Sydney in the eyes, including when he first arrived. 4 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/136643-farmer-wants-a-wife-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-8352567

Maya April 27 Share April 27 I think Grace and Allie are in the friend zone. Sydney is way too young to get married, but isn’t Kate just a year older? Either way, both of them could do better than Mitchell. I don’t think Ty likes either of his remaining women - he wanted Ashley. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/136643-farmer-wants-a-wife-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-8353339
kristen111 May 1 Share May 1 This is all Bullshit and cutesy. Girls sitting around waiting for a Farmer. Where are the farm hands? Do they have any? If they marry one of these girls, what is expected of them exactly? Do they work he farm too, and cook and clean the house? They don’t say anything pertaining to all that. Or, did I miss something pertaining to what is expected of them? It seems like the Farmer is King. What about the girls? I’m a city girl .. what do I know? It looks like a lonely life to me. What if they have a baby? It’s enough to take care of a child and house. 2 1 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/136643-farmer-wants-a-wife-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-8356245
bunnyface May 3 Share May 3 Well, I don't feel like we really learned anything tonight. But the fact that there is going to be a reunion show makes me think one of two things. First, something really did work out for some of these people. At least for now. And I really do hope something did work out. They all seem nice enough. Or two, something went horribly, horribly wrong and they are milking the drama for all its worth. But I'm ready to wrap this up at any rate 5 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/136643-farmer-wants-a-wife-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-8358471
