Ultimately, these final two episodes prove the show can be good if it sticks to the romance and character dynamics, forgoing the crime drama it’s trying hard to mimic. Go to Full Review

Sherie C @SherSher Sep 17 It was so endearing before Season 5. Then it got weird. Weird that Mel's dad just happens to be in Virgin River. Weird with the religious overtones like the close-up of the manger and the reference to Jesus. And no options discussed with pregnancy. I don't know - it just seems MAGA this season.

See more TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch 10/11/2023 Virgin River Season Five is a captivating continuation of the series, building on the momentum from earlier seasons while deepening character development and small-town drama. The season skillfully balances intimate personal storylines with larger conflicts that keep viewers fully engaged. Mel continues to shine, bringing emotional depth and relatability to her role, while Preacher’s presence adds layers of tension and intrigue. Relationships are tested, new challenges emerge, and the stakes feel higher than ever, making every twist and turn feel meaningful. Season five expertly weaves past storylines into fresh developments, providing both satisfying payoffs and suspenseful setups. The writing, performances, and pacing combine to make this season emotionally resonant and thoroughly enjoyable. It’s a season that highlights the series’ strengths—heartfelt drama, compelling characters, and small-town charm—cementing Virgin River as a must-watch show for devoted fans and new viewers alike See more wendy c @DallyDream72 09/22/2023 Same old story lines. Could have been so much better with newer characters and/or with new twists. So boring; had to stop watching season 5. See more Polina G @RT84082298 09/20/2023 Soooo good and comforting! See more Ash B @RT65691843 09/18/2023 What was a fair soap opera is now a poorly done waste of time. The only good thing is the visual. See more Read all reviews
