When Calls the Heart: Past, Present, Future (2022)
Nathan was the reason ratings were high this episode
Kuddos to Kevin McGarry. He remains one of the strongest actors in WCTH. This episode had the most screen time this season and Kevin nailed it. Although other storylines still remain broken and has no ending or placement, Kevin can still carry a candle to any of them. Allie is adorable and so glad she is back. Still no chemistry period between Lucas and Elizabeth. This is the highest ratings I have given WCTH this season and Nathan was the reason. I think that's the reason why WCTH received it's second highest ratings this season. But it was only their 2nd highest rating. The writing remains poorly written, and the storylines are just not making sense. A 4 star was the best I could give. The problem is this, the writing is not good, the two couples E and L are not compatible and not popular with most of WCTH fans except TL fans. They are the ones that have not watched this show from the beginning and try to make everyone else who disagrees with their decision look bad. Go to FB fan page or twitter BB, they have blocked most TN fans bc they didn't want any negative reviews. Thank you IMDb for letting us have a voice and speaking the truth.
When Calls the Heart: Out Like a Lamb (2022)
Bad Writing continues
This show just doesn't feel like WCTH. Instead, it feels more like a soap opera. The scenes don't end well and most of them have no plot. It appears the writers are purposely writing bad storylines for a few characters . L and E remain boring and have 0 chemistry. I have tried my best to really like this couple, and I just can't. No depth, NO deep conversations about one another feelings, dreams, etc. How can she be with this man, when she knows nothing about him or his dad. The fact that L got his mother to publish her book is major problematic synopsis. You had L last season not wanting to discuss any issues with E and yet she chose him. She had deep conversations with N last season and we are yet to see those deep conversations with L and E this season. Fiona is great, Faith is great but really have no true storylines. Mei is just complicated and the last thing N needs. Bill does not have enough air time, great actor but not being used to their advantage. It has become the L and E show. Sad but true. How can you enjoy a show, when all the cast members except two of them are in the background. Great actors/actresses but given mediocre writing scenes. The writers and producers have taken away L, I really enjoyed him being the bad guy with the bad guy attitude to N2.0. L has literally changed 180 degrees and CM is trying but is failing in that department. Missing A, and I'm sure it's done on purpose by the head writer so people can focus only on L and E. Give it a try and see for yourself, the missed plots/scenes/no depth in L and E relationship/no deep conversations in L and E relationship, just kissy, kissy. So boring. I found myself falling asleep.
When Hope Calls: A Country Christmas Part 1 (2021)
Alfonso never disappoints
I love the writing style of Alfonso, so glad he is writing When Hope Calls. I really did enjoy this episode and even enjoyed LL being back. The only reason I did not give this show a ten was the part that DL played as "ghost Jack". No more crossovers please from the horrible show WCTH. The new writers have destroyed that show. Let's keep WHC fresh from that toxicity.
When Calls the Heart: Don't Go! (2020)
The HUG heard around the world
This writing was very good in this season finale. The only reason I did not give it a 10 was because E and N did not kiss at the end of the finale. Wow, What great chemistry these two have. I went back and re-watched this episode many times and I am so disappointed the new writer decided to go in a different direction with the show. These two would have made an epic love story, better than J and E ever was, what a missed opportunity.
The Town That Came A-Courtin' (2014)
just awful
I tried to watch some of it and just couldn't. It's so fake, the acting isn't that good, the writing is HORRIBLE...movie that should have never made it on TV. Sorry, but it's just not good.
When Calls the Heart: Turn of the Page (2022)
Plots and storylines don't make sense
I've tried really hard to like this season, but every show continues to get worse. What have these people done to this once beautiful show? There is no substance. I keep waiting for a deep conversation between E and L and there is nothing. They just don't connect. Henry and Elizabeth have had more deeper conversations these E and L. The whole book story is superficial and unbelievable. When Jack was alive, he tried hard to help E get her book published, but he didn't have a mother that was a publisher. This makes the whole book publishing shameful and appears like the only reason the book was published not bc E is a good writer but bc L mothers was the publisher. No other characters have any real stories. I gave this a 2 only bc of the Canfields and Nathan & Newton.
When Calls the Heart: Straight From the Heart (2022)
Nothing to like about it
Even the kids don't have good rolls this year. It's all about L and E and no one else. I can't even make sense of the other storylines. The plots and storylines are boring. Scenes of others are cut way too short. The only bright spot is N and his horse Newton.
Feeling Butterflies (2022)
Funny, special moments, and butterflies..what's not to love
This was a great movie. Kuddos to HM on this one. Haven't seen a good movie since the Wedding Veil. Kayla and Kevin are great together, great chemistry. Garrett played by Kevin is a dad on the show and it's about butterflies run by Emily(Kayla). The movie had some comedy, romance, sweet moments from Amanda (Garrett's daughter) who loves butterflies and names one after her mom, can you say "melt my heart". I would highly recommend this show. The writing team was TOP NOTCH on this movie.
The Winter Palace (2022)
GREAT LOVE STORY
I wouldn't expect anything less from one of Danica movies...Great Chemistry with both of these actors..funny, witting, charming..what more could you want in a winter movie..cuddle up on the couch and watch this movie..you want regret it.
When Calls the Heart: The Heart of a Father (2020)
Kevin Mcgarry nails it
One of the best written episodes of season 7. Alfonso did a remarkable job writing this episode. N, his father, and Allie did a great job with the acting skills. Love these 3.
When Calls the Heart: The Kiss (2021)
Episode 12 didn't match the rest of the season, bad writing, everything was bad
Don't waste you're time..If you want to watch a show where love can be bought and love is not worth fighting for and you tried to find your dead husband in an man this show is for you..In my opinion, the writing in episode 12 did not match the season "love is worth fighting for" L didn't fight for love, E didn't fight for love, the only one fought for love N didn't get the girl. My guess is bc they did not want Mountie being the lead actor anymore(look at what is happening in our world with our wonderful police in this country) They lost the story what it was based on Mountie/Teacher.
