FOX Entertainment Orders More Farmer Wants a Wife

FOX Entertainment has renewed Farmer Wants a Wife for a third season, with actor and author Kimberly Williams-Paisley joining as host.

A new crop of farmers will host a group of single women who leave their city lives for country living in season three. Throughout the new season, they will travel to Alabama for speed dating event, Tennessee for a country ball and Texas for an overnight camping mixer.

The third season is slated to premiere on March 20 on FOX.

Farmer Wants a Wife is produced by Eureka Productions. Paul Franklin, Chris Culvenor, Ben DeNoble, Jayne Parker and David Tibballs are executive producers. Tibballs is also the showrunner.

“I enjoyed being myself in this show, which was a new experience for me with my first unscripted series,” Williams-Paisley said. “Because I’m a city girl who embraced the country life when I married my husband 21 years ago, I related to the allure of a farmer for these ladies. I really appreciate how dedicated this show and its producers are in helping these hopeful farmers and women find love.”

“We are thrilled to have Kimberly Williams-Paisley take the reins as our new host,” commented Michael Thorn, president of FOX Television Network. “Given her wonderful presence as a talent and person, not to mention her unique love story, Kimberly is a perfect fit for this role and our network.”
