Virgin River fans issue furious demand to Netflix for Season Six over ‘disliked’ character
Netflix fans had plenty to say about beloved show Virgin River – as they made the same demand for Season six.
It comes as streaming giant Netflix has given the show the green light for a seventh season, confirming its unwavering popularity.
Season six of Virgin River, set to premiere next month, has ignited a defense campaign by viewers on social networking site Reddit who stood up for the characters seen as “less likeable” to some viewers.
Now as the show’s biggest stars Mel Monroe (Alexandra Breckenridge) and Jack Sheridan (Martin Henderson) are poised to return to our screens, their fanbase has leaped to their defence of those characters previously deemed “annoying.”
They flocked to social media to have their say. One fan wrote on Reddit: “Lizzie has shown so much growth in her character, yet people are still annoyed by her character and I don’t know why.”
The fan didn’t stop there but also highlighted other characters who’ve received negative attention in past seasons.
In heartfelt plea, they wrote: “There are people that don’t like Jack and I get that he has some qualities that aren’t the best, but he’s a great guy. Brady needs a break. Please. Let him live a good life.
“Preacher also deserves better than what he was given. I love this series so much. I can’t wait for the next season.”
Another fan said: “Lizzie is one of my favourites and I’m glad she’s staying around,” chimed in a fan with a heart emoji, although opinions were divided, as another voiced: “I like Hope, Preacher, Brady, Paige…. Most of the unliked characters. But not Lizzie lol. I can’t!!”
Brady enthusiasts also shared their thoughts, with one fan saying “I agree with Brady. He has the most growth and it would be nice to see him happy.”
Fans were equally supportive of the town’s mayor, Hope (Annette O’Toole), as one remarked: “I love Hope, and I also love Brady.”
