As viewers wait for Virgin River Season 7, Netflix is offering a new emotional escape. A Thousand Tomorrows, based on Karen Kingsbury’s bestselling novel, premieres September 1, 2025, and delivers the same cozy, heart-tugging storytelling fans love—this time set in the high-risk world of rodeo.
Originally released in 2023 on Great American Pure Flix, the six-episode limited series centers on Cody Gunnar (Colin Ford), a devoted bull rider who has sacrificed love and family for his career, and Ali Daniels (Rose Reid), a barrel racer carrying a life-altering secret. Their romance is instant, powerful, and heartbreakingly uncertain.
Like Virgin River, the show blends small-town warmth, faith, and emotional healing, balancing tender moments with real danger and loss. Its limited-series format means no filler—just a focused, deeply moving love story with a clear ending.
The bottom line: If you’re craving a short, emotional binge while waiting for Mel and Jack’s return, A Thousand Tomorrows may only last six episodes—but its impact could linger long after the final scene.
