Farmer Wants a Wife is going through a major casting change ahead of season 4. Fox announced on Wednesday, February 11, that season 4 will feature farmers Braden Pridemore, Brett Maverick and Sean Cavanaugh on their search for love as they court eight women each. Viewers familiar with the format know that usually Farmer Wants a Wife has four leading men, which has shifted to seemingly allow for more focus on making successful onscreen connections. Based on a British series of the same name, Farmer Wants a Wife premiered on The CW in 2008.
