Virgin River

I didn't know there were books and I've never watched Heart of Dixie so I can't compare this to either like other viewers. But I just binge watched the entire first season on the strength of the chemistry between the two lead actors and I definitely want a season 2 since 1 ended on such a cliffhanger. Please keep making this show. It might be predictable and formulaic in the same ways so many things are these days, but it's no less addicting for that.

Every episode recap for you here if you don't care to watch.

The words said between Jack and Mel's constant flirting and loin-panting. Jack: I want you, only you. Mel. I think I'm falling in love with you.... Mel: I can't. I'm not ready (I really want you too though say my puppy eyes and lip biting) wait, no. I can't.....

Hope is absolutely annoying in Season 2 (Ok, she was throat-punch annoying in Season 1, and now she is extra ick and I take her screentime moments to scroll TikToks.

Charmaine - please go away, squat out the spawn and be gone already. There is a book called "He's Just Not Into You" please read it.

Yet, I'm sitting here watching it, so, yah....

Not normally my kind of show.I always give them a shot though and this one pulled me in. Hope they make a second season.Me a 70 year old male who usually goes for the Fargo's and Breaking Bads of this world. A pleasant surprise.I do have a soft side.I did enjoy the Gilmore Girls.Had to keep that one quiet....

Kind of a mix between Dr Quinn Medicine Woman and Grey's Anatomy (with much less sex.) Mel, Jack, Preacher and even ornery Doc are good characters. But Hope McCrea is like the Jar Jar Binks of this show. She is, without a doubt, one of the worst, most annoying characters I've ever seen on any show EVER. I'd give it a higher rating if she left.

Wrap it up! Story lines gets messy but I'm still entertained. How many seasons does Charmaine have to be pregnant? I lost count. The actor playing Calvin was switched out in Season 6. I'm too invested in this show to drop out now. Think they got new writers for season 6 because the dialog feels different. No real focus and too many characters makes this all confusing and difficult to swallow at times. Why did it take a year for season 6 to come out? The show is going off the rails and I don't think a season 7 will fix it. Beautiful scenery but it's time to wrap it up and move on from this soap opera-y baby mama drama.
