Welcome again to Hope Valley, Hearties!
Lots modified in When Calls the Coronary heart Season 10, and we’re right here to evaluate what occurred in When Calls the Coronary heart Season 11 Episode 1 Episode 1 and if it was value it.
Truthfully, issues appeared to go a bit gradual on this first episode, however there are mysteries arising that we’re hoping to see play out earlier than too lengthy.
The brand new season started with a bang, actually. Truly, it began with two bangs because it was revealed that Lucas had been shot shortly after being elected governor.
This was a dramatic transfer, however don’t worry; it was revealed very shortly that Lucas is okay and recovering fairly properly, from what we are able to see within the episode.
We knew one thing massive was taking place to Lucas after When Calls the Coronary heart Season 10 Episode 12, however it appeared a bit too dramatic that he received his coronary heart damaged and received shot at nearly the identical time.
Nevertheless, When Calls the Coronary heart is not at all times recognized for its dramatic techniques, so we’ll nonetheless grasp tight and provides it some grace as they tries a flare for the theatrics.
Talking of dramatics, it is a reduction that Rosemary is identical in spite of everything these years. She’s calmed down, however she’s nonetheless the most important drama queen in Hope Valley, and we love seeing it.
Though we may have seen extra of Rosemary and Lee on this first episode, we’re sure that they are going to be extra outstanding because the season continues.
He is not a secondary character, however there may be somebody we will not ignore: Nathan Grant.
Oh, Nathan.
It is clear to everybody however Elizabeth that he nonetheless has emotions for her, and it appears apparent that Elizabeth nonetheless has emotions for Nathan. Will these two ever get collectively? Will Elizabeth ever take the chance of loving a Mountie once more? Solely time will inform.
Nathan will by no means be Jack Thornton, that is for certain. He is a completely totally different and new character, however one which was like a breath of contemporary air. In spite of everything, we will not have a city with no Mountie, and Nathan did not take lengthy to turn out to be a part of the group.
So what’s going on between him and Elizabeth?! They went from being pleasant buddies to being awkward counterparts between the seasons.
We noticed them share a detailed and intimate second on the finish of When Calls the Coronary heart Season 10 when Elizabeth is visiting Jack’s grave, however the second was interrupted by the information of Lucas being shot.
Watching Lucas’s restoration jogged my memory that what we make of our lives is as much as us. Second by second. And I’m actually having fun with the sensation of being open to… infinite potentialities.
Elizabeth
It is evident that Elizabeth nonetheless cares for Lucas even when she does not love him romantically. In spite of everything, she was fast to experience away on horseback and go away Child Jack with Rosemary and Lee to run to Capitol Metropolis to be by his aspect.
Will Lucas and Elizabeth reconnect? Truthfully, hopefully they do not. There have been many ups and downs in that relationship, and we’re prepared for one thing contemporary and new.
Lucas Bouchard at all times appeared to be doing an excessive amount of for Elizabeth; his gestures had been too grand for this big-city woman turned small-town widow.
Nevertheless, seeing a brand new character launched for Lucas can be enjoyable. Somebody who desires these grand gestures a bit greater than Elizabeth, who’s content material in her little life.
At all times keep in mind, it’s possible you’ll really feel lonely, however you’re not alone.
Minnie
That is not a dig at Elizabeth, both. She has a content material life filled with buddies, love, and pleasure regardless of her struggles and hardships, and although she misplaced Jack, who stays on the forefront of her thoughts fairly often.
The episode began a bit dramatic however slowed as issues grew to become extra obvious.
Lucas remains to be Lucas along with his grand gestures for the townspeople as he introduced his plan for the Territorial Fund and his plan to make use of it to construct a resort and resort proper in Hope Valley.
I used to be elected to make a change. To set this territory on a brand new course.
Lucas
It could have been good to see extra of Nathan, as we’re anticipating a romance to bloom between him and Elizabeth this season.
Possibly the romance will not occur, however love is a central theme of the present in all methods, and it does not appear proper for Elizabeth to not have a romantic curiosity.
We nonetheless see love blossom between Mei and Hickam, which is so candy to observe. Even sweeter was when he gifted her a bicycle to go to the recent spring to gather clay extra simply. How considerate!
She was burdened about her time administration with Fiona gone, and he discovered a solution to save her a while — Hickam is a sweetheart.
We’ll miss Fiona this season. Her arrival was surprising to Hope Valley, and her departure was shocking, although it was quieter than her first fashionable steps within the city.
One thriller we’re ready to resolve is the id of the particular shooter.
Was the person arrested the one who did it? Was Montague the one concerned? And does Lucas not keep in mind who shot him, or is he simply defending somebody?
General, we give the episode a 3.5/5 ranking.
It wasn’t a foul episode, however the thrilling components moved a bit too shortly and left a lot to be desired.
