Virgin River Season 5 Better Try And Do Better Than These S4 Plot Holes
Here’s what needs to change in season 5.
Virgin River season 5 is almost here. While fans of the show are eagerly waiting for it, it doesn’t mean there are no concerns. Season 4, while it was a rollercoaster of emotions, also had some plot holes that fans just couldn't ignore. Fans hope that season 5 does a better job at tying up these loose ends.
The Timeline
Four seasons in, and we're only five months into the story? Seriously? It feels like the characters have lived through a lifetime of drama in such a short span. Charmaine's pregnancy seems to be stretching on forever. It's like the writers are using some ancient sundial to keep track of time.
Party Town
Another thing that's got fans scratching their heads is the amount of festivals and parties in Virgin River. It's like there's a new celebration every month. And let's not even get started on the last-minute wedding invites and the magical costumes that appear out of nowhere. It's all a bit too much.
Love and Life Decisions
Mel's life journey post her husband's death is another point of contention. She relocates, embarks on a new career, finds love, and undergoes IVF treatment, all in the span of a single year. And yet, she has issues with her sister getting married? Come on, Mel, give us a break!
The Doc and Hope Saga
The only characters that seem somewhat grounded in reality are Doc and Hope. But even their storyline feels rushed. Lily's illness and death happened so quickly, it's hard to keep up. And what about Doc's eye condition that's conveniently pushed to the background?
The fanbase is buzzing with similar sentiments. From the snail-paced timeline to the over-the-top drama, fans are calling for a more realistic approach in season 5. Some are even suggesting a time jump to move the story along.
The inconsistencies are starting to pile up, and it's high time the writers address these issues. Here's hoping season 5 brings more coherence and less chaos to our beloved Virgin River.
Season 5 is expected to drop on September 7 on Netflix.
