"The Hunting Wives" has arrived with quite a splash, offending and delighting critics and audiences alike. Not a new reality format, unfortunately, but an eight part drama that has been called both a "bonkers bi-sexual culture war soap" and "'Desperate Housewives' with the addition of streaming-TV-level sex"...
Ok, calm down, we'll tell you. Here's how to watch "The Hunting Wives" online from anywhere with a VPN.
'The Hunting Wives' - Release date, time and channel
"The Hunting Wives" premieres in New Zealand on Tuesday, July 22 and is available to stream for FREE on TVNZ+.
• FREE STREAM — TVNZ Plus (New Zealand)
• Canada — Crave
• Australia — Stan
• U.S./ U.K./ Rest of the World — Netflix
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk-free
But there's a lot more to the show than just sex. Sophisticated East Coast political PR executive Sophie O'Neill (Brittany Snow) has moved to East Texas, reactionary right-wing Republican country, with her husband and a backstory full of secrets. She's in good company, everybody in this show has secrets. And issues.
Substance abuse, swinging, bisexual liaisons and infidelity are all very vanilla in "The Hunting Wives." And so we also have stalking, kidnap and murder. Just throw it all into a huge pot with characters who have everything turned up to 11, season with preposterous plot devices and BINGO! A smash hit series for summer 2025.
