Niall Matter, Spencer Drever, and Mark Humphrey are among those recurring in season four. A historical drama based on Janette Oke’s novel, When Calls the Heart follows Elizabeth Thatcher (Krakow), a young teacher once accustomed to the world of high society.

Telly’s Take
Allow me to set the scene. Imagine yourself back in the 2015-16 television season, while the television vulture is watching and waiting for a bite to eat. Now picture my utter dismay after this little show’s third season ratings increased by nearly 75% in the 18-49 year old demo and by more than 23% in terms of average total audience. When Calls the Heart mocks my existence. Alas, season four is also doing well so I suspect that this Hallmark series will be renewed for season five. I’ll keep watching but other shows have much bigger troubles. 4/24 update: This show has been renewed.

I haven’t had TV viewing for 25 years. But I am a movie watcher and have a lot of DVD’s. I was extremely pleased to discover the “When Calls The Heart” series. The months just don’t seem to go by fast enough in waiting for the new DVD’s. I am pleased to read that there will be a season 5. It’s a great moral, uplifting, thought provoking program. Please keep it in the works and on the TV air for years. I hope when they decide to end the series they will end it with closure with each main character.… Read more »
I am so glad the show will be renewed. It’s my favorite show on TV. Uplifting entertainment. Love Jack and Elizabeth’s love story, love Hope Valley and all the characters.
When Calls the Heart is the best show on TV. Please bring Jack back. He and
Elizabeth need to get married.
Great series I hope it continues, I understand it is going to come the CBC Network but can,t seem to find whe?
One of the best shows on TV. Great acting, superb moral values. However, Elizabeth and Jack need to get married. Their relationship has strung on too long.
One of the very best shows on TV. Great acting, superb moral values. Elizabeth and Jack need to get married – engagement too long!!! Love the characters.
I sure hope When Calls the Heart is renewed ! Great show !
This is my new favorite show. I love the values it represents. Hard work, honesty & integrity are a few of the traits that shine.
Please please renew I love it
Overwhelming YES!!!!! Hard to find good wholesome shows anymore…too many of us “hearties” out there to cancel and please bring Jack back….:)
Please bring back When Calls the Heart . Please don’t leave the audience guessing if Jack is alive or dead, and when Elizabeth and Jack finally tie the knot .
Please renew for season 5. One of best shows on tv and season is all too short. Can’t wait for what will happen next in Hope Valley and for Jack and Elizabeth to be married . Also for developing relationships of other townspeople. A belief in God and family values is hard to find in most of today’s tv lineups. Please continue your high standards in programming.
Absolutely LOVE this show – my husband and I never miss it!
