When Calls the Heart (TV Series) Steps Forward (2024) User Reviews

This show found its heart again

[mxbvbhdhs · 10/10 · 24 April 2024]

Since season 10 & the introduction of a new show runner I finally feel like we are watching WTCH again. During season 8&9 the show went off course.

This episode features the entire cast instead of focusing on one or two couples. This show has an amazing cast that should all be highlighted & many amazing stories still to tell.

Elizabeth is focused more on teaching, her students & finding herself, The Coulters wonderful as always. Lucas is wonderful as Governor, Bill & Nathan are serious lawmen. Henry, Faith, Molly, Mike, Mei Ned & Florence all have relevance now. So glad to back to Hope Valley.

Romance is back!

I have always loved this show, but it's even better now that the Romance is being amped up for Nathan and Elizabeth. It seemed like the show had forgotten about the beautiful slow build love story we'd seen for them, and they had just decided to have her marry Lucas. But then she broke it off with him, and this season, we are finally getting the love story we've waited for. And supporting characters Bill and Rosemary solving a mystery together are so much fun. Mei and Mike are sweet together, and even the children have dramatic arcs. Toby's math struggle pulled at my heart. WCTH has it all, humor, drama, and romance.

Well written, good pacing, along the theme of wishing for "normal"

Because I have hopes for my favorite characters which were unmet this episode, I initially felt disappointed in this episode, but after processing and giving it some time I'm able to see that it's actually quite well put together and makes excellent use of the ensemble cast.

In particular, the Canfield family had three family scenes which were an excellent story arc in this episode alone, but which I think set us up for more in upcoming episodes. The Canfield kids are fighting a lot, and Joseph gets very vulnerable with them and shares a secret he's been keeping for a long time.

What I did not like is that Nathan and Elizabeth aren't really communicating well, although they seem to like each other. They always sparkle on screen together, but we've been doing the miscommunication thing for so long , it's time to talk TRUTH and talk DEEP and LONG about it.

Lucas' story line as Governer is getting more interesting all the time, especially since he's seeming more and more compromised to me after his severe injuries, and it seems like his one assistant in town is not trustworthy.

Rosemary and Bill are really amping up their investigation and their scenes together are really enjoyable.

This season we continue to see new parts of Hope Valley -- Nathan and Elizabeth's scene in the backyard of the rowhouses was beautiful, refreshing, and felt like new territory.

When Calls the Heart history was made as Nathan Grant accidentally appeared shirtless to Elizabeth in the Mountie office. The actual shirtless part of the scene lasted just 6 seconds, but it made quite an impression, while remaining completely innocent!

So while episode 3 of every season is usually kind of a downer, this episode broke the mold!

What happened to this show ?

[mlouw-24712 · 1/10 · 23 April 2024]

The writing is just awful. Show is boring. Lead characters look to be almost 40 years old and act like middle school kids who have a crush. Elizabeth acts like an entitled brat. Nathan is goofy. Don't waste your time with this nonsense. Change that channel. So many better things to watch. This is such a sappy show. Lol seems like a B rated production. Hallmark how did you let this happen and most of all how do you even show this drivel. By the way your new show runner is awful. Time to make some big changes because you so called flagship show is sinking The way Home is so much better. WCTH is nothing but a bad soap opera.
