Love the show. Hate to see major characters leave, but that can ‘t be helped. Please leave the shoe on; reminds me of Little House on the Prarie.

I love this show. Please leave it on.
I have truly LOVED the series, “When Calls the Heart”!! At my house, I have watched every single Season and episode including the Christmas specials.

I absolutely love when calls the heart. I have seen season six three times !!
I will continue to watch When Calls the Heart, definitely! Love the show.

Maybe I missed another point about that subject. And who is the Mayor now?
Used to watch When calls the Heart for several seasons on Sunday nights! Loved the show! Then I could not find it anymore, checked listings to no avail! Will anxiously watch it again, so continue and state clearly when and what nights it will s
Love this show. Miss Jack but life goes on. Leave the show on, please!
Love this show, one of my favorites. I’ve been watching from the beginning. I hope they don’t cancel.
Absolutely love this show and everyone in it! Nice to have a clean wholesome show to watch. Still wish Jack wasn’t gone but love the new storylines regardless.
My husband and I love this heart-warming show. So do our daughter and 2 teenage grandchildren. When they visit I love to watch with them – no violence nor vulgar language. We anxiously await to learn if and when a new season will start. Please, please renew forever!!
My husband and I both love where calls the heart. We love all the characters. I hope it stays on. Don’t really miss the ones who are gone.
I enjoy watching when calls the heart. It needs to stay on.
