(Photo byfor Netflix) Call it Party of Five meets Virgin River. And mark your calendars for season two of My Life with the Walter Boys, which drops on Thursday, August 28. The announcement was made by the show's stars, Nikki Rodriguez, Noah LaLonde, and Ashby Gentry, at the Calgary Stampede, an annual rodeo, exhibition, and festival held every July in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The scoop: Looking to capitalize on the success of the sudsy Virgin River with an eye on the younger demographics, My Life with the Walter Boys, based on Ali Novak's 2014 novel of the same name, follows recently orphaned Jackie Howard (Nikki Rodriguez), a teenage girl from Manhattan who relocates to rural Colorado after she is taken in by the Walters, a family of eight children - seven sons and one daughter. The series was developed by Melanie Halsall. There Jackie finds herself attracted to two of the Walter boys. The first is Noah Lalonde as the hunky 'rebel without a cause' Cole Walter, the fraternal twin of Danny (Connor Stanhope) who used to be quarterback at Silver Falls High School but suffered from a career-ending injury. Then there is Ashby Gentry as Alex Walter, the more bookish type who also pines for Jackie. SANTA MONICA, CALIFORNIA - FEBRUARY 18: 2024 PEOPLE'S CHOICE AWARDS — Pictured: (l-r) Nikki ...

(Photo by Gilbert Flores/Variety via Getty Images) Netflix has announced a third season renewal for its coming-of-age scripted drama My Life with the Walter Boys ahead of its second season. Best described as Party of Five meets Virgin River and based on the book by Ali Novak, the series follows recently orphaned Jackie Howard (Nikki Rodriguez), a teenage girl from New York City who relocates to rural Colorado after she is taken in by the Walters, a family with nine boys and one girl. It premiered in December 2023. The soapy scoop: As Jackie gets acclimated to her new picturesque environment riddled with teen melodrama, she becomes romantically involved with two Walter sons, Cole (Noah LaLonde) and Alex (Ashby Gentry). At the end of season one, Jackie heads back to New York, leaving her relationship status unresolved. Inspired by the success of Virgin River, which recently began filming season seven, My Life with the Walter Boys will return for the 10-episode season two later this year. Both My Life with the Walter Boys and Virgin River do not have confirmed return dates at press time. The cast also includes Sarah Rafferty Rafferty and Marc Blucas as parents Katherine and George Walter, along with Connor Stanhope (Danny Walter), Johnny Link (Will Walter), Corey Fogelmanis (Nathan Walter) and Jaylan Evans (Skylar Summerhill). Season two will feature new recurring cast members Natalie Sharp, Carson MacCormac, Janet Kidder, Riele Downs, and Jake Manley.
