The stories of the residents of Hope Valley continue to unfold in this long-running drama series. Last year, the Hallmark Channel show’s traditional ratings were on the rise, which is very unusual in today’s television landscape. Will the ratings continue to climb this year? Will When Calls the Heart be cancelled or renewed for season 13? Stay tuned.
A romantic historical drama series, the When Calls the Heart TV show stars Erin Krakow, Martin Cummins, Pascale Hutton, Jack Wagner, Kavan Smith, Andrea Brooks, Chris McNally, Kevin McGarry, and Viv Leacock. Melissa Gilbert guests. 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. In the 12th season, Elizabeth and Mountie Nathan Grant (McGarry) have admitted their feelings for one another and begin their courtship. Of course, it wouldn’t be Hope Valley if everything in their relationship went smoothly.
