Would you live in Virgin River?

Only at the beginning of season 2 (so please no big spoilers!) but my answer is no!

Normally those small town shows with beautiful countryside make me want to pack up and go, but not this time. You have to drive so far to get anywhere - 2 hours each way for a date, no thank you! They’re far too far from a hospital (gives me palpitations just thinking about), umm drug growers taking up?! Contaminating the water and being a generally terrifying threat! Breaking down on the road and being stuck for hours, again the drug growers come down.

Whenever Mel is stuck somewhere and Jack needs to drive her home I think “thank god he’s not a sexual predator”.

So no I don’t actually want to live there Grin anyone else?

Anyone else seen a tv show that looks idealistic but has actually put you off?

Aha! Thanks, @Classica. I’ll add it to my list.

No but I would love to live in Stars Hollow. That place is heaven as far as I’m concerned!

@SomethingNastyInTheBallPool Serenity is Sweet Magnolias. Its nice escapism but it can be a bit sickly. Still it's happier than Virgin River.

Interested in this thread?

@BiscuitLover3678 I’ll give it a go, though I have a very low tolerance for schmaltz!

Ahh it might not be for you. You’ve got to accept it for what it is, it is ridiculously hallmark!
