Seven Renews Farmer Wants A Wife For 2021
The Seven Network today confirmed the renewal of tentpole programme Farmer Wants A Wife for its second season on Channel 7 in 2021.
The second show to launch under Seven’s content-led growth strategy, Farmer Wants A Wife has delivered big ratings since its premiere, regularly proving to be the most popular entertainment show in Australia on Sunday and Monday nights.
Angus Ross, Seven’s Network Programming Director, said: “We knew Farmer Wants A Wife had its heart in the right place and this has resonated with viewers across Australia – with huge numbers on 7 and 7Plus.
“This is just the beginning: we’re excited to build on this year’s momentum by delivering a scaled-up season with even more of Farmer Wants A Wife for 2021. It continues the successful reinvention of Seven’s content slate in 2020 using proven, power formats.”
The road to love on the 2021 season will be even more romantic with dream overnight dates, luxury country getaways and spectacular group get togethers that will set the stage for true love to blossom.
Thrilled with the chance to play Cupid again, returning host Natalie Gruzlewski will throw in a few new surprises to help the hopeful farmers find the one.
“I’m so excited to guide another crop of hard-working Aussie farmers in their search for true love. As Australia has seen, our farmers and ladies wear their hearts on their sleeves and it’s a privilege to be a part of their life-changing love stories.”
With 99 marriages and 225 beautiful farmer babies worldwide, Farmer Wants A Wife is the most successful dating show on the planet. In Australia alone, the series has resulted in nine marriages and 20 babies.
