Also, I noticed after a few seasons there are a lot of conversations starting with: Are you okay? What's wrong? We need to talk.

You can learn to love being on your own if you are brave enough to try it.

Hey, I have news for you dear, love is not limited to men and marriage. And the one where a newly divorced middle-aged woman gets engaged after only one month of dating because, you know, she's not afraid of love. So what else could she be?) 2 scenes made me stop watching, the one where a new male doctor is hired and all the women gather in the waiting room to get a look. (You know because she's not beautiful and she's old and not looking to get married. There is an older (not so beautiful) woman who is not looking for a man and has been turned into a self-righteous, gossipmongering old bitty. (now that's a healthy relationship) The one unattached, yes another beautiful woman is very young. I had hope for the one woman who chose to stay separated and independent until it turned out she was simply carrying a 20-year grunge against her cheating partner.

Most of the townwomen seem to have been married forever. The scant single women are either beautifully widowed and grieving their husband's loss soon to be dead themselves, (because ya know, one can't live much beyond their true love) beautiful women looking to get married, beautiful and recently divorced women remarried in record time, or the single beautiful women who, though super accomplished, pretty much end up looking for a man. Then I started noticing the scant diversity, (though there is one black man who they carefully pair up with brown-skinned women) no gay people, nothing but man/woman pairings, a lot of them. If you love beautiful people and scenery you will like this show. Because you will not regret watching this show.Ī nice soap opera. I highly recommend checking out the show I highly recommend getting your foot in the door of Virgin River. Preacher is so phenomenal and so is everybody else that is part of this show. Vernon and Jack are questionable whether or not you want to like them or not, but eventually you start to feel these characters and you start to feel the development. It's so amazing to see hope, played by Annette O'Toole back on the screen, because even though her character is annoying, that's what she's created to be. Mel is the perfect Casting in the perfect actress to play this part, her character development, and her character in general. This show is extremely captivating, grabs your attention, and makes you feel like you want to be part of this small town Virgin River is surrounded by what look like 5,000 foot mountains and no one has any trouble making a perfect cell phone call which is amazing considering there isn't a single cell tower on any of the mountains. However, the show jumped the shark from the first episode and I'm reminded of it every show. Everyone has an unrealistic drama going on in their lives. There is never a scene without a smooch and an 'I love you', along with an excess of nosiness disguised as caring about the other person when they are all really self-absorbed narcissists desperate to turn the conversation to themselves and their own neediness. I watch this mainly because my wife likes it, but for me it's too schmaltzy. If Virgin River was a real place, I WOULD MOVE THERE RIGHTAWAY!!! I like that the whole show, although too soapy for some, focuses on community support and gives the viewers a sense of security and comfort. There's such a cosy atmosphere that makes you feel that ideal communities exist and people are still good.
