The first two seasons followed Mel Monroe as she tries to escape her past by moving to a new town in Northern California named Virgin River to work as a nurse practitioner. Much to her dismay, she is not only unable to let go of her past, but she must also deal with the major drama that unravels in this new town. The show’s second season ends on a major cliffhanger with Jack, Mel’s lover, getting shot and bleeding out on his bar’s floor. We do not get to find out who does this and why. In fact, we are not even sure if he survives! Thus, fans have been going crazy speculating conspiracy theories. Thankfully, the wait may finally be over as season 3 of Virgin River might make its debut in November 2021! The show has already been renewed for a new season by Netflix, and productions are already underway. The possibility of the series premiering by the end of 2021 is almost a hundred percent!

The first season of the series follows Alex Guzman on his journey to find the murderer of his sister Sara after he spent 18 years in jail. Initially, he believes that his sister died due to a parasailing accident. However, upon reading her journals, he realizes that something seems fishy. Her journal contains an odd drawing with an unmarked grave. As soon as Alex sees it, he recognizes the location and digs up the grave. In it, he finds a skull with a bullet. Could it be Sara’s? Or perhaps it is the skull of one of the prostitutes killed by Ceśar. The father of Sara’s dead child, who is also the father of Sara’s boyfriend. Sounds pretty messed up, right? Full of mysteries, secrets, murders, and messed-up relationships, this Mexican thriller has had fans gripping the edges of their seats, waiting for the next twist to unravel! With a first season that is so good, we can barely wait to find out what happens in the second. 

Love is Blind Season 2

Love is Blind is an unconventional dating reality TV show where singles must find their matches purely based on emotional connections. They are not allowed to see the faces of the people they are talking to, and thus, they must fall in love with the other person’s personality. Once both singles confess their love for each other, they are allowed to meet in person. They are also sent on a holiday to get to know each other better, physically and emotionally. The show was an absolute hit among viewers as it was quite different from regular dating TV shows. Thus, it is no surprise that Netflix has renewed the show for a new season set to premiere in fall 2021! With new singles ready to try their luck at making lifelong commitments, fans are extremely excited to see how the second season unravels. 

Too Hot to Handle Season 2 

Full of steamy hot scenarios, Too Hot to Handle is another take on dating reality TV series. Featuring some of the hottest human beings alive, the show offers a reward of $100,000 to the contests if they can manage to build deeper relationships without sex. The rules are simple; contestants must not touch themselves or others. Violation of rules results in losing money, and the worst part is, if one person messes up, the whole group suffers as the prize is to be split equally between them. Things get pretty heated up, rules are broken, and money is lost, but all in all, each contestant manages to get $7500! The show gained immense popularity among worldwide viewers and managed to secure a loyal fanbase that demanded another season. Netflix complied and renewed the show for another season set to air as early as June 2021! With new hot singles, new rules, and steamier situations, we are excited to see what season 2 of Too Hot to Handle has in store for us.
