What do you think? Do you watch When Calls the Heart? Are you glad it’s been renewed?
This should come as no surprise as this apparently is how Hallmark chooses to operate. I am very disappointed but not surprised.
I absolutely love this show, please keep it on, it is a good wholesome series without anyone having to strip, it takes me to a good place, I think it is one of the best shows on TV! Please keep it going and going!!!
My family enjoys watching this wholesome TV series. We hope Jack is not really dead and a mistake was made? It is such a good show, that everyone can watch. You do learn some good lessons from each show?
I love “When Calls the Heart” and am anxious for Season 6 to start. I’m hoping there is a twist and Daniel Lissing is returning somehow. If not, some of the dynamics of this show will not be the same. We waited so long for them to get married!
Yes im so happy when calls the heart will return for 6th season! How will this play out since jack thornton died??
Yes My wife and I love this show. we watch it every Sunday night. wsome family show. Thank you o much for renewing it.
I love watching When Calls the Heart. Disappointed that Jack was killed off, but I am hoping it was a mistake and it was not him that died since Hope Valley is a place for Miracles.
My family and my brother in laws family meet together each week to watch “When Calls the Heart”. We love this show and keep up with each episode. If we have to miss an episode, the next week we watch 2. The life lessons in the show are awesome and the clean language makes it safe for our kids to watch. Please continue to renew this program.
My husband and I absolutely love this show and ALL THE Characters..Didn’t like Jack going, he’s a nice actor…but hope that the series continues. TV is not much watching anything anymore except the Hallmark Channel. I’m tired of all the negativity on the other channels. If all the channels were more Like the Halmark channels and Christian channels it would be a lot better world out there..
My daughter and I are thrilled to be able to share Elizabeth’s story line although heart broken with the loss of Jack. We enjoy all of the characters on the show each one’s storyline is just as important!!!
Yes, it’s sad that Jack died. I choose to believe the writers played that trump card in order to give a stellar finale for Season 5. Man, it was beyond stellar…..and I am almost sure that tears were pmshed before any cast member spoke a word. So, here is a plausible plot twist that could play 1well play out in 2 seasons. I will number my idea and try to avoid long sentences. I may not even fill in all twists in the hope that others will add to the theory. IMHO, we may do so well that the writers… Read more »
I just started watching this show on Netflix and I love it! I am now on Season 5 but just read in the comments that Jack dies! How very disappointing when he and Elizabeth just finally got engaged in Season 4!!! I will continue watching the show as it is an uplifting drama with ups and downs in each show that are usually resolved by the end of the show. Jack Wagner helps carry the shoe but I do hope Elizabeth finds a new love interest at some point. Abigail should be with Bill, not Pastor Frank… perhaps as an… Read more »
I really enjoy watching When Calls the Heartand look forward to it every Sunday. Thanks for renewing it for a sixth season. Very disappointed that Jack Thornton has been killed off. I don’t understand the why! It’s a great show!!
I absolutely love this show. I love the town and the community and I am glad it is continuing. I refuse to believe jack is gone as he made this show great, without him it would be the same.
I love the show! I’m happy it was renewed! I am sad that Jack is gone!!
I love this show but I am very disappointed that Jack is dead. We waited 5 seasons for them to get married for Jack to be killed. Horrible writing and not sure I will be a fan still.
When Calls The Heart has been the best series I’ve ever watched. I am very disappointed with Jack dying. Main stars are not supposed to die. I will continue watching it but hope there was a mistake and he comes back. A series you feel like your actually living
