The Virgin River cast tried to guess how much time passed on the show from season 1 to season 7.
Based on Robyn Carr’s book series, Virgin River follows the lives of residents living in a small town in Northern California, including Mel (Alexandra Breckenridge) and Jack (Martin Henderson). The hit series, which premiered in 2019, also stars Colin Lawrence, Annette O’Toole, Tim Matheson, Benjamin Hollingsworth, Sarah Dugdale, Zibby Allen, Marco Grazzini, Mark Ghanimé and Kai Bradbury.
Netflix’s hit series is seven seasons in – but it seems like way less time has passed for the residents of Virgin River.
“It’s been [around] six months,” Hollingsworth exclusively told Us Weekly. “It was what everyone figured out it was, which is nuts.”
Grazzini had a different suggestion, sharing with Us in a separate interview, “It’s been about a year and a half, right? Because, if you think about it, it’s been about a year and a half from season one because that’s when Charmaine got pregnant.”
He continued: “Now her twins are a couple months old so let’s call it nine months plus five months. Just over a year.”
Allen’s suggestion fell somewhere in the middle.
“I think it’s been a year and a half — like a year and three months,” she noted to Us. “I know the writers told us once and I just forgot.”
Allen, who has been on the show since season 3, went on to share why she is “a bit worried” about season 8 after that shocking finale. Season 7 of the Netflix hit, which premiered on Thursday, March 12, saw Brie (Allen) and Brady (Hollingsworth) finally getting on the same page about being together. Their bliss was short-lived, however, as Brady ended up in a motorcycle crash that left his fate unclear.
“We’ve speculated a lot about, what’s it going to be? Is he going to be OK?” Allen exclusively told Us. “It’s so unfortunate that things never seem to go totally right with Brady.”
Allen confirmed she didn’t know what the plan was, adding, “I’m not going to lie, I’m a bit worried. I want them to have a moment or longer than just a moment — because they had one moment on the motorcycle before his accident. I want to give him a chance [at happiness with Brie] so we’ll see what happens.”
In a separate interview, Hollingsworth poked fun at Brady never winning in his professional or personal life. “That’s pretty much on par for Brady’s luck,” Hollingsworth quipped to Us. “I guess I just can’t have nice things. I guess Brady just can’t have nice things.”
Hollingsworth also hinted that he knows where Brady will end up in season 8. Allen, however, argued that the cast would need to wait until the show goes into production to get the full picture.
“I know as much as Ben — and it’s not as much as he’s letting on,” she joked. “The writers always let us give us a pitch of what the character arc is going to be for the upcoming season. But that’s when they’re beginning to write the new season. So things often — and always do — actually change and shift. It’s always a bit of a mystery to us until we get the actual scripts.”
