In seasons three and four, Hallmark Channel’s When Calls the Heart TV show rose significantly in the ratings. Can the Canadian-American TV series maintain or even further increase its viewership in the fifth season? Will When Calls the Heart be cancelled or renewed for season six, or will the story end here? Stay tuned.
A western family drama, When Calls the Heart stars Erin Krakow, Daniel Lissing, Lori Loughlin, Jack Wagner, Martin Cummins, Pascale Hutton, and Kavan Smith. Inspired by the Janette Oke novel, the Hallmark TV series centers on Elizabeth Thatcher (Krakow), a young teacher from a high society background. When she is assigned to teach in a coal country classroom, her life completely changes, particularly when she meets Royal North West Mounted Policie Constable Jack Thornton (Lissing).
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

Note: Though Hallmark promotes season five as premiering on Sunday, February 18, 2018 at 9:00pm ET/PT, the two-hour movie that airing in December 2017 has a season five production number, and Hallmark has included it as part of the fifth season on their website. It’s for these reasons that we’re listing the movie’s ratings as part of season five.
For comparisons: The fourth season of When Calls the Heart on Hallmark averaged a 0.28 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.406 million viewers.

Best show on television
You must renew this show. It is wonderful
This is one of the sweetest shows. It so reminds me of the 60,s and 70,s. It always has a positive massage and shows problem solving skills were people come together to help. I wish we had more programs that would follow that type of story line.
This needs to continue for 6.
I watched all four seasons in less than a week. I will be absolutely destroyed if there isn’t a fifth season. Please, the world needs more television like this series…it reaffirms our faith in humanity.
This is an excellent, heartwarming series. Recently viewed all available episodes. Story line, acting, depiction of small town country living is great. Love Jack and Elizabeth. It’s been a bit frustrating seeing them try to maintain a solid connect. Want to see them marry so badly!!
My family and extended family love WCTH!! It is a show that the whole family can watch. We love the characters and the story line! Keep it on!!!
My husband and I are in our 70’s and we love this show. It is heartwarming, loving, caring people who help each other out. We want to see more of Jack and Elizabeth and their relationship and hopefully a marriage. They are the catalyst for this show and their love for each other shows how life should be. Please develop this show into more seasons and give Jack more time on the show. He is so sweet and kind and helpful and shows his love to Elizabeth. We need more shows like this. Writers give Jack more time with Elizabeth… Read more »
