Telly’s Take
Will Hallmark cancel or renew When Calls the Heart for season six? Since this show’s ratings rose significantly in seasons three and four, flying a bit blind I think it will get a sixth season, as long as the parties can agree on money.

What do you think? Are you glad that the When Calls the Heart TV show has been renewed for season six? How would you feel if Hallmark Channel had cancelled this TV show, instead?
My sister and I love, love, love When Calls the Heart!! We hated when Jack died, but we still love and will continue to watch the show. I had to binge watch all 5 seasons on Netflix though, because I do not have dish or cable. Can’t wait to see the new season!!
Very disappointing that Jack died! However, it’s a really good family show of which there are very few so we will continue to watch and am VERY happy it’s returning!
I have not nor will I watch this show again. The loss of Jack was a terrible move. I realize the actor wanted to move on to even “MORE HALLMARK MOVIES” I see he has gone far as he is still starring in Hallmark movies. Sorry, I even got my husband to watch this with me but after Jack died we both don’t think there is much more to watch! THE SHOW IS RUINED FOR BOTH OF US!!!!
I absolutely agree with Mitmo. We stuck with Hallmark through five seasons of Jack and Elizabeth drama. To have Jack die so abruptly, is downright disrespectful to its’ audience. The primary reason we watch Hallmark is for the “happily ever after” endings. So, Hallmark, congrats… you’re now just as common as cable.
We have been wondering what happened to this show. So it looks like there is going to be a season 6? Very cool! Also 2 hour xmas movie on the 25th!
I have to admit…I did NOT like Lassen die off. I couldn’t and haven’t watched that last episode. . Too disappointing. I hate death in real life more. Anyway…time to move on.
Happy watching fellow fans.
Love this show. Happy there will be another season.
We love this show…..the compassion, empathy and cooperation of the townspeople. We are thrilled that there will be a 6th season.
In a world that has so many problems, it was refreshing to watch this show. My wife got me started watching it and we really enjoyed it till jack was killed, and unfortunately his wife is pregnant. Another life problem. Sorry folks you have lost another viewer or two. And just to show you a not often heard from demographic I am a 63 year old male . Sorry for your Loss Both me and Jack Craig
