Netflix’s drama series Virgin River has already enjoyed a successful run so far,

and it has been officially confirmed that season 6 is on the way. Debuting in 2019 and based

on the book series by Robyn Carr, Virgin River follows Melinda Monroe, a woman who moves

to the eponymous Northern California town to escape her past. However, upon arriving, the nurse practitioner soon learns that even small-town living has its dark side. Noted for its gripping storylines and ensemble cast, Virgin River has been one of Netflix’s biggest unsung hits for several years.

Though the critical response to the series has been spotty, Virgin River has been heaped with praise at times, including its fourth season which garnered an impressive 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes. This critical success has translated into a committed audience, and the series has succeeded at weaving its romance storyline through a host of other compelling dramatic arcs. Shows like Virgin River have the potential to stretch on forever, and though season 5 is still fresh in the minds of fans, season 6 is already coming soon.
