This isn’t even Griffith and Keller’s first episode of Virgin River! The writing team, who are also a married couple, also wrote “Heroes Rise,” the sixth episode of Virgin River season 5, which is the fire episode. When Virgin River wants to drop a bomb on viewers, they bring in Griffith and Keller, apparently!
Keller is also a well-known actress, who starred on Ryan’s Hope, Another World, and some sitcoms. Lately, Griffith and Keller have been contributing to Virgin River about once per season for season 5 and season 6. In the past, they wrote an episode of Dolly Parton’s Heartstrings.
Griffith is also credited for writing or story editing 15 episodes of the hit supernatural series, Grimm, which ran for six seasons on NBC through 2017, in addition to his work on the series as a producer.
Unfortunately, Griffith didn’t get a chance to get in the writers’ room or behind the camera for Cobra Kai, which he has starred in since season 4. Cobra Kai comes to an end with the release of season 6 part 3 on Feb. 13. There are still a few episodes of the series left, so you still have plenty of time to catch up.
Based on how frequently Griffith and Keller have contributed to Virgin River, I won’t be surprised if the pair writes another episode in Virgin River season 7. The series has already been renewed for season 7 on Netflix.
