Virgin River Season 6: What We Know About Mel and Jack’s Return to Netflix

As the end of summer draws near and fall creeps ever closer, we turn our attention

to the cozier things in life: scented candles, pumpkin spice lattes and, of course, Virgin River.

It’s been roughly nine months since fans last visited the iconic Netflix locale, and while there’s still quite a while to wait until Season 6, we do have some idea of what to expect when we’re eventually reunited with Mel, Jack and the rest of the crew.

As you may recall, Virgin River‘s first-ever Christmas episode — which doubled as the fifth season finale — introduced a number of surprising developments into the mix: Mel met her estranged biological father, Charmaine (finally!) gave birth to her twins, Doc enrolled in an experimental trial to save his eyesight, Jack surprised Mel with a puppy (named Pony!), exes Brie and Brady almost kissed under the mistletoe, Lizzie and Denny announced that they’re expecting a baby girl, Preacher received a warning about Wes’ body being discovered, the return of Cameron’s ex threatened his future with Muriel, and the audience learned that Brady’s new girlfriend Lark isn’t the sweetheart she pretends to be.
