Taming the Shrew is a daring and entertaining relationship reality show where a frustrated husband, overwhelmed by his wife’s fiery and domineering behavior, turns to an expert for one last chance to save their love.
In this emotionally charged and humorous format, the couple’s frequent clashes turn into a dramatic spectacle — full of tension, surprises, and dark comedy.
In the first part of each episode, the “shrew-tamer” — played by actor Sorin Tofan under the alias Vicențiu — steps in with unorthodox tactics to confront the wife’s behavior and teach the husband how to regain control and restore balance in the relationship.
But it’s not just theory. The specialist demonstrates his methods live, offering the husband a front-row lesson in how to deal with his strong-willed partner. Once the coaching ends, it’s time for the husband to step up and apply what he’s learned — alone.
The episode ends with a simple yet powerful question:
Has the shrew been tamed… or not?
Taming the Shrew is an original format by Zucchero Media, aired on Prima TV between 2010 and 2011.
