Sad news: Beloved veteran actor Colin Lawrence has passed away md20

The perfect replacement for Virgin River came to Netflix in July 2025 and was an instant success. Now, the newly popular TV show has the chance to break a record for the streaming service, and it’s all happening on August 11th. Given its track record, the odds of the romance drama TV series pulling off this impressive feat are high.

Virgin River fans will undoubtedly love Sullivan’s Crossing, as they share many things in common. Firstly, they’re both based on books written by Robyn Carr. As such, they have similar tones and themes. Both Virgin River and Sullivan’s Crossing take place in small towns, revolve around romance, and feature a female protagonist who is a doctor looking for a fresh start.

Given Virgin River‘s well-established acclaim and the similarities between it and Sullivan’s Crossing, it makes sense that the latter show has been such a success on streaming. Sullivan’s Crossing has taken over Netflix’s streaming charts after the platform added its first two seasons to its catalog in July. Since then, both seasons made it onto the streaming service’s most-watched list (per Netflix).

Even though Sullivan’s Crossing already has three seasons under its belt, the romance drama’s addition to streaming has brought it to the forefront of the conversation. A plethora of new fans are just now discovering the TV series. They are making Sullivan’s Crossing into something it has never been before, and its spectacular achievements will likely only continue in August.

Sullivan’s Crossing Season 3 Can Put The Show In Record-Making Netflix Territory

Sullivan’s Crossing Season 3 Is Coming To Netflix On August 11th

August 11th will be a great day for Sullivan’s Crossing fans, as Netflix is adding its third season to its library. After bingeing seasons 1 and 2, viewers will be able to access season 3 on August 11th. While exciting on the surface, Sullivan’s Crossing season 3’s arrival on Netflix also opens the door for the romance drama to break a record.

Sullivan’s Crossing season 3 could follow in the footsteps of the first two seasons, meaning it makes it onto Netflix’s Top 10 list. It would also help if season 3 were trending for weeks. If it does, Sullivan’s Crossing would be the first show to dominate on Netflix and then have its latest season added a short while later just to triumph, too.

Based on how Sullivan’s Crossing seasons 1 and 2 were huge hits for Netflix, season 3 following suit wouldn’t be surprising. The CW romance drama has been a hit for the streaming service since July. It stands to reason that Sullivan’s Crossing season 3 will follow suit.
