Netflix has officially confirmed that the popular romantic drama series Virgin River will return for at least two more years. This confirmation from Netflix comes just weeks after several rumors circulated with reports that season four of Virgin River was in fact moving forward. With the popular series making its return for two more seasons, Netflix has also confirmed to be making a commitment to produce more “comfort” content, USA Today reports.
Speaking about the comfort genre, Jinny Howe, Netflix’s VP of original series, told USA Today: “With everything that’s been going on in the world, people more and more are looking for, not just that comfort, but also that feeling of hope and that feeling of community. All of that really came together in a way that was really organic, and I think this was more of a proof point that this is a really vital area of programming for us.”

Martin Henderson, who plays US Marine veteran Jack Sheridan in the series, has even admitted that he and the cast couldn’t predict the success of the first two series. “We didn’t know whether a show like this would find a huge audience,” he stated. “I don’t think anybody anticipated it to have as wide of appeal as it did.” Alexandra Breckenridge, who plays nurse Mel Monroe, also credited the show’s “lovely sense of community”for the show’s success. “There is a sense of connection and intimacy that you have on the show that people crave in their own relationships,” she then added. “During the pandemic, you’re not experiencing that as much, and so that connection became something people were craving.”
