What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the Hallmark Channel cable channel, When Calls the Heart stars Erin Krakow, Jack Wagner, Kevin McGarry, Chris McNally, Andrea Brooks, Kavan Smith, Pascale Hutton, Ben Rosenbaum, Johannah Newmarch, Martin Cummins, Kayla Wallace, Viv Leacock, Natasha Burnett, Vienna Leacock, Elias Leacock, Hrothgar Mathews, Loretta Walsh, and Amanda Wong. Inspired by the Janette Oke novel, the TV series follows Elizabeth Thatcher (Krakow), a young teacher from a high society background. She’s assigned to teach in a coal country classroom and it’s a life-changing experience. Now a widow and single mother, Elizabeth faces new challenges but enters into a new relationship with mysterious gambler Lucas Bouchard (McNally). In season nine, Hope Valley is in a state of growth, with the foundry’s progress and the evolution of key relationships. The Mayoral race has the town buzzing with a few members of the town running against one another. Elizabeth and Lucas focus on their relationship beyond courtship, and as she gets to know Lucas better, she learns about his past which gives Elizabeth pause about their future.
Season Nine Ratings
The ninth season of When Calls the Heart averaged a 0.15 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.10 million viewers. Compared to season eight, that’s down by 25% in the demo and down by 13% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM). While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled. Find out how When Calls the Heart stacks up against other Hallmark Channel TV shows.
When Calls the Heart has been renewed for a 10th season which will debut on July 30, 2023. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will Hallmark Channel cancel or renew When Calls the Heart for season 10? This show remains Hallmark’s highest-rated series, but it’s also been on the air for nine years. I think it will be renewed and could continue even if Krakow opts to leave at some point. The series will end someday, but I don’t think that will happen yet.

I would love to see if Rosemary and Lee have a healthy baby and whether it’s a boy or girl
The show’s renewal is typically known by now, so that isn’t a good sign. Between that and the key demo continuing to go down with this season (it was already down 20% for S8 and now another 25% for S9), I don’t think it bids well for a renewal. It’s not reaching the demo that advertising dollars are spent on. Says a lot about which way that demo, in particular, wanted the show to go with the triangle. Ratings were not good this season despite what some want to believe. The delay in renewing it speaks to that. It’ll be… Read more »
Please let there be a 10th season of When Calls the Heart. It’s good clean entertainment……no sex or drugs. It makes me want to return every week to see what’s new in Hope. The actors are terrific and really make me want to continue watching. I feel like I know them personally. Please don’t cancel this show. It’s really hard to find really good shows anymore that are actually good for a family to watch and enjoy together. Thanks Hallmark for presenting great entertaining shows that I can truly enjoy watching and not have to worry about the language used… Read more »
Rumor has it that viewership dropped in the 18-49 age demographic, because they quit watching the show, due to Elizabeth choosing Lucas over Nathan. If so, this is very disappointing. I think if they cancel the show, they should run a few more episodes to tie up some loose ends, especially concerning the Mei Sou/Faith/Lucas triangle. It would be good to end the show, with some sort of “send off” or “grand finale”, so that the audience would know what is happening and be able to bid them farewell.
Love the show hope it will be renewed to continue the stories.
Wonderful show,never miss it.When calls the heart is the very best
My daughter and I have watched this show since the beginning! We love this show and all the changes in the town is great to see! Even though my daughter is now married we both watch it and talk about it Monday! We do miss having a Christmas special episode though.. please bring that back also! We look fwd to it! Love love love the entire cast! Please bring it back for many more seasons!
I love this series. I have it taped when I can’t watch it at the time. I never miss a show. It’s so nice to have a entertaining show that has good values. This would truly be so disappointing to not have this show on anymore. I am also really hoping we don’t lose any of the stars to the new GAC station. I have been a fan since season 1. This is the only show I watch regularly.
Please don’t cancel… with Covid every thing has been effected. Miss having more of the kids. Please bring Mei back, she was a delight, perfect for Nathan. Lee and Rosemary having a baby will bring joy to the watchers.
WCTH is my favorite show. Please don’t cancel it now. I am definitely team Lucas. I hope to see he and Elizabeth marry and all the adventures ahead of them. As well as the developing relationships of a few others characters. I can’t wait for the next season!
Very good series, nice to watch a show with no sex and drugs. True to life
Love this series! I can’t wait for season 10.
My husband and I watch an episode every night.
I really hope the series is not cancelled I love the wholesomeness of the show!
I really hope it is not cancelled. I have looked forward to see every season and so are my friends along with family. Please do not canceled it.
