I absolutely love “When calls the heart” series and hope that you continue with more series…I however am not pleased with “When hope calls” ..couldn’t get into the story…not original casts members and story line is completely different…bring on more seasons of “When calls the heart”
Please renew When Calls the Heart for Season 8 we love it and when hope calls.
I’ve watched it for a very long time it is the best show of Hallmarks series. Please please let it return as I love the story line and all the characters especially Nathan and Elizabeth and it’s the best!! Can’t or don’t even want to imagine not seeing another season. looooooove it so much.
It has to be Lucas. He is caring, dependable for a family and showing his care and attention in every way possible. Also he said he would be patient.
Well I think it should be renewed because I’m from Australia and I love the show it’s change me in so many ways I’ve never watched anything like that ammmazing why is it when we don’t like a show it’s always on but when we like one they take it away I lovvvve when calls the heart please don’t take it away from us thank you looking forward for season 8
WCTH should definitely be renewed for next season. It is one of the few family shows on television and probably the best.
Well I love When Calls the Heart and I would love to see a season 8 the writers need to write out the love triangle we need to see more Lee and rosemary and all the other characters and less of Elizabeth and her two suitors.
The show needs to be renewed for an 8, 9 , etc. seasons. I am in my 70’s and I absolutely love this show. Please keep this show going. All the actors are amazing at their jobs.
