With Yellowstone over and Virgin River Season 7 a long way away, Netflix has come galloping to the rescue with new drama Ransom Canyon – and boy, is it just as delicious. It turns out that no iteration of the Virgin River format is a bad one.

Is Ransom Canyon the next Yellowstone or the new Virgin River? Depends on who you ask. At first glance, Netflix's foray into Westerns checks everything off our checklist from hot cowboys to feuding ranch families to love triangles.

The show, released on Thursday, stars Josh Duhamel, Minka Kelly, and James Brolin. Based on Jodi Thomas’s eight-book romance series, the adaptation tells the story of three Texas ranching dynasties vying for control of their land while facing threats that endanger their legacies.
