There’s nothing like cozying up on the couch with a warm blanket, your favorite comfort food, and a good show to watch when the weather is cold and you don’t want to make “outside” plans. And with winter upon us, there’s no shortage of reality dating shows to watch. If you’re looking for a new series to add to the lineup, look no further because Fox has your latest reality TV obsession Farmer Wants a Wife.

The show features four single farmers looking to settle down. Each farmer is matched with women from the city, who have also been unlucky at finding love. Hosted by Sugarland member Jennifer Nettles, the show offers a genuine take on typical reality dating shows as it spotlights men, of varying ages, looking for true love in the heartland. Watch the premiere of its second season on Thursday, February 1 at 9/8c on Fox and next day Hulu.
