Virgin River will she be entitled to her spin-off? Here is the question that has been on all fans' lips since the streaming platform launched season 6 of the series. While this new salvo gave us some heat, it also successfully introduced Mel's (Alexandra Breckenridge) parents, Sarah Jensen (Jessica Rothe) and Everett Reid (Callum Kerr). When Mel's biological father tells him how he met Sarah in the 1970s, before she died, the series multiplied the flashbacks from episode 2 in order to reveal this story. If the fiction has chosen to visually show their past, this is not trivial. After the end of season 5 of Virgin Riverit was indeed announced that a spin-off series project on Mel's parents was in development at Netflix. And for the release of the sixth salvo, Variety spoke with Patrick Sean Smith, the showrunner of the fiction on this subject: “It was always planned to do a pilot episode, introducing this new timeline. [Le spin-off se concentrera] not only about the romance between Sarah and Everett, but also about the origins of Virgin River in the 1970s“. If everything suggests that the lights are green for this spin-off series, Netflix has not yet officially announced the order. Two journalists from Télé-Loisirs, Roxane Mansano and Juliette Heuzebroc, strongly hope so and they will tell you reveal the reasons and do you agree with them?
Season 6 of Virgin River managed to change Roxane's mind on a spin-off of the series about Mel's parents
“When a spin-off about Everett and Sarah was announced, I wasn't at all excited. I even told myself that I didn't really care about Mel's parents. But season 6 managed to get me change my mind. This insight into these two protagonists only tickled my curiosity and made me want to discover more. I quickly got hooked on the characters, and particularly that of Sarah. free, his ardor and his passion excited me more than I expected. Jessica Rothe and Callum Kerr, their interpreters, are perfect in these roles and, I'm not going to lie, they are extremely beautiful. A real pleasure for the eyes. I know they don't end up together, but when I see how strong their love was, I wonder what could have happened to cause their paths to part. So this is a story that I want to see and which intrigues me greatly. Discovering Virgin River in the 1970s is also very appealing and the soundtrack makes me want it. Another bonus, seeing characters from the Virgin River series in their youth in this spin-off would also be very, very, interesting.”
We don't look Virgin River for the scenario but that doesn't stop us from wanting more: Juliette's opinion
“No need to lie: yes, the story of Mel's parents sounds cute and we can wonder how they went from an intense romance to Sarah hiding the existence of her biological father from Mel, but this is not really why we will watch this spin-off The major asset of Virgin River has never been its storyline, always highly anticipated, despite the many twists and turns in Robyn Carr's books from which the series is adapted. No, Virgin River is more of a atmosphere, a feeling. Anything can happen there, you will always want to watch it under a blanket with a hot herbal tea in your hand. the series is soon on its seventh seasonwe are starting to tour the modern Virgin River. The spin-off, set in the 1970s, immerses us in a whole new version of the small Californian town. The opportunity to discover the city in its beginnings in a completely different America but also to discover the childhood of certain characters from the original series. Indeed, from the flashbacks of season 6, the most observant will have noticed Bert and Connie still children…”
