    Just watched the season finale of WHEN CALLS THE HEART. I love this show. It is the kind of show that you almost feel like you know the characters. Please keep making the show. It is so so good.

    Just watched Season 7 Finale. Loved the sweet romantic moment with Elizabeth and Lucas in the Library! You can tell Lucas cares for her so much. The rest of tonights show was a Total Bore. Ending was as expected but hopefully Elizabeth was acting in the moment when she saw Nathan and embraced him with Lucas watching! Hopefully Season 8 turns things around and Elizabeth makes amends with Lucas after tearing his heart on the ground, if not and the show continues with a Mountie that will be the same as the other seasons. Carry your Mountie storyline in When Hope Calls! Just a suggestion. Really disappointing!

    Can I please ask why the series is spaced so far apart? I just heard that it will not resume until next year, 2021. I do not understand this. Baby Jack and all the characters will be 1 year older. Also, please progress with the choice of Nathan or Lucas. It is getting repetitious, just different date settings. It is a good series that needs to move on as it is getting boring. I think PammTx said it best.
