“Farmer Wants a Wife”
I guess it was only a matter of time before reality TV arrived down on the farm. The CW cable network debuts a new reality series at 9 p.m. on Wednesday, April 30, called “Farmer Wants a Wife.” It’s about a 29-year-old Missouri farmer who’s looking for romance with a city girl.
The show’s Web site offers this description: “Are they ready for the realities of life and work on a farm — driving a tractor, taking care of very large farm animals, sewing quilts and attending bingo night? Through a series of challenges, group activities, shocking eliminations and cozy dates, these uptown women will see how they match up with a down-home guy on the path to true love.”
I don’t have cable TV, and probably wouldn’t bother with a show like this even if I did. But this series probably will hit on the challenges of finding a significant other when you’re a rural single — something I’ve written about before. Go to www.daytondailynews.com/downtoearth

What do you think of reality TV that pairs up a country boy and a bunch of city girls?
