City girls seek rural romance with Prince Farming

Animal husbandry gets applied to humans on The CW in April.

The CW network announced that it will debut its reality series "Farmer Wants a Wife" on Wednesday, April 30 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. On the show, a lonely farm boy looks for love with a city girl.

Ten city gals vie for the affections of a hard-working farmer who has it all -- except for a woman to call his own. Fish-out-of-water challenges, group activities that may or may not include barnyard animals and cozy, bucolic dates create the wacky action in this comedic series.

"Farmer Wants a Wife" will follow the 10th cycle of "America's Next Top Model" on Wednesdays.

The new reality series is already yet another transplant from overseas. The established international hit ranks as the top show in its timeslot in Australia, France, Germany, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Belgium and The Netherlands.
