The wait for a new season of Virgin River is almost up! We’re quickly closing in on the release of Virgin River season 4 on Wednesday, July 20 with what promises to be quite an eventful season.

Season 3 left us with a lot to process including the burning question regarding who the father of Mel’s baby would turn out to be and whether Mel would accept Jack’s proposal. After stewing over these questions and more over the last year, we’re finally about to get some answers in what should be another must-see season.

There’s a lot of ground for the new season to cover. Fortunately, the writers have even more time than normal to address the series’ biggest storylines this season!

Virgin River season 4 episode count

Although most seasons of Virgin River only consist of 10 episodes, Netflix has decided to make season 4 the show’s biggest season yet with an expanded season. That’s right, season 4 is about to become the show’s longest season to date.

Instead of the standard ten episodes we’ve grown accustomed to for Virgin River, season 4 is going to consist of 12 episodes in total. That’s two more episodes than we’re used to getting in a season and we can only imagine how the writers will use those additional episodes to help with this season’s key storylines.

While there are two more episodes to enjoy this season, we will note that the episodes still remain roughly 45 minutes in length each — a runtime that has worked nicely for the show in past seasons.

Virgin River season 4 arrives on Netflix on Wednesday, July 20!

But what does make series four stand out among its past seasons is the number of episodes.

Up until now, all three Virgin River series have consisted of 10 instalments each.

However, season four will be breaking the mould as there will be 12 episodes coming out.

While there are two more episodes to look forward to, the running time of each instalment remains the same at 45 minutes each.

    Season three of Virgin River ended with various cliffhanger moments, the first of which revolved around Preacher (played by Colin Lawrence).

    He was acting as Paige's (Lexa Doig) son Christopher's (Chase Petriw) guardian when she went on the run.

    But he was tricked into meeting an associate of her ex-husband Wes (Steve Bacic) to meet in the woods and was poisoned.

    This meant Wes' brother Vince (Steve Bacic) was able to take Christopher while Preacher was left for dead.

    There is, of course, the matter of Jack and Mel who discovered she was pregnant.

    Nothing is ever plain sailing in Virgin River though as Mel admits to Jack she doesn't know who the father is.

    When they briefly broke up, Mel used her last round of IVF treatment she had been using with her late husband Mark (Daniel Gillies).

    When she returned to Virgin River, Mel got back with Jack and slept together so who is the daddy?

    Thankfully, there will be plenty more to come, even after season four is over.

    Virgin River was given a double renewal when series three finished last year.

    Filming on season five has recently begun and is expected to come out in the summer of 2023.

    Virgin River season four premieres on Wednesday, July 20, on Netflix.
