At present, there is no confirmed release date for Virgin River season 7, although many are estimating the season will premiere in either late 2025 or early 2026. That may feel like quite a long time to wait, particularly given how many unanswered questions season 6 left behind. However, Netflix’s new show, Ransom Canyon, is the perfect show to watch if you’re impatiently waiting for Virgin River season 6.
Netflix’s Ransom Canyon Is Perfect For Fans Of Virgin River
Ransom Canyon Is A Romance Drama With A Charming Backdrop
Like Virgin River, Ransom Canyon is a romance drama that has plenty of charm. Ransom Canyon’s cast of characters stars Josh Duhamel as Staten Kirkland, a local rancher, and Minka Kelly as Quinn O’Grady, a musician and dance hall owner. In addition to the show’s focus on land owners and their complex dynamics in the Texas Hill Country, Ransom Canyon explores the long-running (and very complicated) romantic relationship between Staten and Quinn.
Among those is the steamy romance between Quinn and Staten, which mirrors Mel and Jack’s relationship in Virgin River. The charming, beautiful backdrops of Virgin River and Ransom Canyon are yet another similarity, which should be particularly of interest to those who watch Virgin River because it’s so peaceful.
Like Virgin River, Ransom Canyon Is Also Based On A Book Series
Both Shows Are Adaptations (With Various Changes)
Ransom Canyon is also based on a book series, just as Virgin River is. However, as is always the case with books that become movies or TV shows, both Virgin River and Ransom Canyon deviate from the source material in various ways. Virgin River’s book changes in particular reveal some significant deviations, especially given the series changes focus from book to book, whereas the Netflix show is almost entirely focused on Mel and Jack. Likewise, Ransom Canyon is based on a book series written by Jodi Thomas.
Ransom Canyon has a 75% rating on Rotten Tomatoes’ Popcornmeter.
Thus far, the show has stayed fairly true to the source material, although Ransom Canyon has a darker tone than the books. It’s also worth noting that, so far, Ransom Canyon has been based on the first book in the series. Presumably, if Ransom Canyon is renewed for season 2 (which remains to be seen), it would begin to pull from other books in the series as well. Although many are anxious to see Virgin River season 7, Netflix’s new show, Ransom Canyon, is the perfect watch in the meantime.
