It’s that time of year again, Virgin River Season 7 episode titles have been quietly revealed and we’ll begin the dissection on what they could mean. Listed in alphabetical order (not episode sequence), these titles offer a few clues about the storylines ahead. Based on what little has surfaced from production over the past year, here’s our breakdown of what each title might be hinting at.

Note: The order of the episodes will be revealed closer to the release.

• Always Anywhere Forever
• Back in the Saddle
• Beautiful Child
• David and Goliath
• It Takes a Village
• La Luna De Miel
• No Regrets
• Pipe Dreams
• The Afterglow
• The Match

Always Anywhere Forever

This sounds like a vow, or a reaffirmation of one. It could be a major Mel and Jack moment, possibly tied to them finally moving into their new farm or restarting their family plans. A new chapter, sealed with intention.

Back in the Saddle

This one feels layered. On one hand, it could reference Doc reclaiming his role at the clinic, especially if the battle over his license reaches a resolution late in the season. On the other, it may connect to new character Clay, played by Cody Kearsley. A former rodeo rider with a troubled past, Clay’s storyline seems poised to bring Virgin River more cowboy energy, especially since we know rodeo scenes were filmed this year. Like many Virgin River episode titles, Back in the Saddle could carry a double meaning, reflecting parallel arcs for multiple characters in the same hour.

Beautiful Child

Virgin River has a habit of naming episodes after classic songs (Songbird, anyone?). Beautiful Child is also the title of a Fleetwood Mac track, but given the song’s meaning, which centers on an older man having a relationship with a young woman,  it’s probably not a direct thematic match for the episode. More likely, the title points to Lizzie’s upcoming birth, which we expect mid-season, and possibly signals an emotional shift for Mel and Jack as they revisit their hopes for parenthood. While we know Marley is set to give birth by the end of the series, it’s likely that Lizzie and Denny’s baby will take narrative precedence in Season 7, especially as a major milestone for their young storyline.

David and Goliath

This sounds like a classic underdog story. Doc’s ongoing battle with the medical board seems the likely storyline here, especially with the growing friction between his clinic and Grace Valley. It’s shaping up to be one of the more emotionally charged arcs of the season.

It Takes a Village

This feels like the warm-and-fuzzy community episode every season needs. Thanks to social posts from the cast, we know one shoot took place at Roland’s house (Hope’s ex-husband), involving what appeared to be a Civil War reenactment (more cowboy and western elements). Whether it’s a fundraiser, a town event, or a group effort to support one of their own, expect Virgin River at its most heartwarming.

La Luna De Miel

Filming took the crew to Mexico this year, specifically Tulum and the Yucatán’s Hacienda Cenote Oxmán, so this title confirms it: Mel and Jack are going on their honeymoon. Expect stunning scenery, a romantic retreat, and maybe a few surprises along the way. If we hear Alejandro Escovedo’s “Luna De Miel” in the background, don’t be shocked.

No Regrets

A character reaches clarity, possibly Brie. With Brady and Mike still orbiting her emotional storyline, this could be the moment she finally chooses herself… or chooses one of them for good. Let’s hope that after so many seasons, a final decision is made and a new chapter begins for all three characters. It’s time for this love triangle to either evolve or end.

Pipe Dreams

This one suggests ambition or new beginnings. Someone might be chasing something bold, whether it’s a career shift, a creative project, or even a long-shot relationship. Virgin River storylines often feel stuck in safe cycles, so a jolt of something new would be welcome, especially considering the show has been renewed for season 8.

The Afterglow

This could very well be the first episode of the season. Showrunner Patrick Sean Smith already confirmed that Season 7 will pick up right after the events of the Season 6 finale. That final scene, Jack walking into the twins’ bedroom, left viewers hanging. This title might capture that moment’s emotional fallout and what comes next.

The Match

A title with multiple meanings. Could the sewing circle play matchmaker again, perhaps for Muriel or someone new? Or could it point to conflict? We’ve already had major fire storylines (Season 5’s wildfires, Jack’s house burning down in Season 3), so a literal match might not be repeated, but the metaphorical spark of a new feud or threat is definitely on the table. Calvin’s recasting (from David Cubitt to Josh Blacker) suggests he’ll be back, and his scenes may involve Brady, who was spotted filming motorcycle scenes at Mel and Jack’s farm together with his stunt double. Whether it’s a romantic match, a turf war, or something darker, this title feels like a turning point.

While Season 7 has yet to receive an official release date, there’s still time for Netflix to announce a 2025 premiere. But with production wrapping late and no official window in sight, fans might need to stay patient a little longer. Also, don’t forget that Netflix has already ordered up an eighth season of the show, which has yet to set a production start, although we’d expect it to be sometime in 2026.
