Here’s a recap of three reality TV shows from last night, one focused on models, one focused on a farmer and one focused on cooks. Such diversity…

America’s Next Top Model: We start out this week with Whitney in confessional and voiceovers. She is stunned that she was allowed to remain as Katarzyna was sent home. She realizes that she has to relax and not be to posey. She has to bring it on to make it to the final two… — Reality News Online

Farmer Wants a Wife: On this episode, Matt has the girls get down and dirty with some pigs, then takes them out on the town for a wild night of playing bingo with the elderly… — BuddyTV

Top Chef: Speed and stamina were two ingredients the eight remaining chef-testants needed to stay in the competition this week. Dividing into two teams of four and with immunity no longer offered in the Quickfire Challenge the relay race was on… — TV Guide

Last night, reality TV took us to a farm, a kitchen and a runway. How dare people say this genre is a sign of cultural decline?!? It brings viewers into a series of world with which they previously were unfamiliar. It’s educational!

Farmer Wants a Wife: Series premiere. We first meet Matt Neustadt, an evenly tanned 29-year-old who pensively shucks corn and is a decent catch by most standards. Not only is he educated, respectful and owns land, but he’s not half bad in the looks department… Zap2It

Top Chef: Lisa was told her Rice, Corn, Black Beans and Peppers with Avocado Crème and Grilled Shrimp was unoriginal and Mark’s Miso Glazed Turkey Breast was tough, dry and needed sauce. On the upside, Richard is spotlighted again with his “well-balanced” Tuna Steak and Tomatoes with Yuzu Vinaigrette… — TV Guide

America’s Next Top Model: Whitney, who we really like but doesn’t often take the best pictures, won the photo shoot challenge and got to split some shopping prize money with Anya… — Shiny Style

Just when you thought you’d seen all the possible reality dating shows, along comes Farmer Wants a Wife. The title of the series is father self-explanatory:

Matt Neustadt, a Missouri farmer, serves as the Matt Grant of the show, hoping to find true love from an assortment of desperate women.

Neustadt will whittle down the 10 women who are sick of city-slickers and want to try their hand at love with a country boy via a series of farm-themed challenges — such as driving a tractor and taking care of livestock — as well as through group activities and dates.

“I am a third-generation farmer on land owned by family members and myself,” said Neustadt. “The farm has been in my family since the late 1940s.”

Will Matt Neustadt find true love on Farmer Wants a Wife? We’d never thought we’d ask that question.

The 10 women competing for Neustadt’s heart on Farmer Wants a Wife (which premiers on April 30 on The CW) are:

- Amanda, a 21-year-old Northwestern University student from Poughkeepsie, NY who currently resides in Chicago, IL

- Ashley, a 27-year-old Chicago Marriott Downtown senior catering sales manager from Wells Beach, ME and Chagrin Falls, OH who currently resides in Chicago, IL

- Brooke, a 23-year-old Young’s Market Co. marketing representative from Dallas, TX who currently resides in Huntington Beach, CA
