The first debut on Netflix all the way in December 2019, Virgin River was silent to be one of Netflix’s sleep hit with fans all over the world enjoying a romantic drama starring Alexandra Breckenridge, Martin Henderson, Colin Lawrence, and Jenny Cooper.
When was Virgin River renewed for season 5?
For those who are unconscious, Virgin River was given an order to update two seasons after season 3. That means we have known about the fifth season for some time now. While two seasons orders are not new, they are increasingly rare. It shows us that Virgin River continues to defeat all the internal metrics displayed by Netflix for the show.
