‘Virgin River’ showrunner Patrick Sean Smith broke down season 6’s biggest cliffhangers while teasing what’s ahead for season 7
Virgin River season 6 gave viewers more joy – and drama — than ever before, and showrunner Patrick Sean Smith broke down all the crazy reveals, plot twists and cliffhangers with Us Weekly.Season 6 of the small town drama, which hit Netflix on Thursday, December 19, saw various characters’ lives being turned upside down in mere minutes.
While season 7 — which was greenlit earlier this year — will continue to unravel many of season 6’s plot points, Smith promised that Mel’s pre-wedding jitters won’t be one of them. Smith said that the Sarah and Everett flashbacks are just the beginning of “expanding the Virgin River-verse,” and its history, but worked as a great jumping off point.
Smith also said that Hope’s history will continue to expand in various other ways, which will come into play for the potential prequel.Although Cameron and Muriel called it quits in season 5, the doctor came back after finding out about her breast cancer diagnosis to help prepare her for the tough road ahead. Fans of the pairing, however, will have to be satisfied with the exes’ season 6 interactions, as Smith told Us their romance is likely a closed chapter.
The season ended in true cliffhanger form when Mike revealed he knew about the tryst but got down on one knee and proposed anyway. Despite their rocky past, Smith acknowledged that the duo are a very “special” part of the show, and have a dynamic that works “really well” on screen. “I want to be very mindful and careful of it,” he said of their story, “and continue to make it as fresh and exciting and sexy as possible.
Mel — and the rest of Us — were shocked in the finale’s final moments when a pregnant Marley revealed that the couple who were going to adopt her baby changed their minds. Marley then asked Mel and Jack to take her baby, leaving Mel stunned.
