No matter which side you were on, Elizabeth’s character has taken a pretty big hit in the respect department over the last few years. I’m baffled as to why the writers chose this path. To my mind, the one thing that has helped people retain some respect for her are her scenes with Henry. In my opinion they have been some of the best scenes for Elizabeth.
Yes and her relationships with her students. I'm still done with her.
In the beginning she seemed to be a woman of substance. Now she's insufferable!
I don't know why she and Nathan weren't just put together from the beginning. It's ridiculous they built this love story with Lucas, then dropped it right before their wedding. What a waste of time.
@@miriamdevries7627 Agreed. No matter which way it goes, they’ve milked the love triangle for way too long.
Elizabeth and Nathan were not put together in the beginning because Elizabeth needed time to grieve. She suffered a great loss when Jack died. It's a journey with many twists and turns. Some people take a month to grieve while others take years. I always knew Lucas was Elizabeth's safe choice but Nathan is and always will be her true love.
The writers keep messing with the fans with the ups and downs between Lucas, Elizabeth and Nathan.
I could imagine what the story maybe like when Jack shows back up to the set lol.. I know he won't because he said he won't be coming back. But what kind of story would be there should he return to Hope Valley #Superchannel #Canada
@@kitakitsinc A ghost story.
I'm more interested to see what happens with Henry after he visits Abigail! No one is talking about that!
I am. Henry's redemption arc has been beautiful to watch.❤
Hope she returns forgiveness and redemption is key to Hope Valley flourishing 🙏
That's because they know she isn't coming back yo Hallmark
@@emydel679please no! The other characters have grown so much in her absence. As well the development between Elizabeth and Rosemary as chosen sisters and raising their children as family would not have happened had Elizabeth still had Abigail to rely on.
At the train station Lucas said he knew deep inside that something was missing between them. It was more of them both admitting they knew they weren't meant to marry. On the phone he told her she was right. He would have regretted it had he not got on that train. He was meant for something bigger and the city life. She is meant to be a small town school teacher. As far as her with multiple men, isn't that what dating is all about? She only got serious with 2, Jack & Lucas. Jack died. Lucas wanted a different life. Just my opinion.
I think that Erin had to say that, but it was a shock for me. Lucas was not necessarily looking to be a politician but got pushed into it to save the town and people he cared for. I feel that Elizabeth ended up being flakey… it was okay when she was pulled into between nathan and lucas but once she chose lucas how do you hurt him again.
exactly tired of these wishy washy women on hallmark.
My thoughts are how could Elizabeth fake her love for Lucas for 2+ years & then decide she made a mistake! Not believable. They had a beautiful relationship.
My opinion Lucas is perfect for Elizabeth!!! He's a gentleman, romantic, and love Elizabeth unconditionally!!! Too bad the writers decided to get Elizabeth back to Nathan who's boring, barely acknowledged her son little Jack and the source of her husband dying .
Hopefully the writer will reconsider to put them back together, Lucas and Elizabeth are well suited for one another
I thinks she's flakey.. and I am not watching the show anymore.
Yes Sharon so long to realize she made a mistake .
So poorly written & not believable
It’s funny how upset people get about a fictional story.
I think its because we watch When Calls the Heart for the feel good story, and the fictoinal people that we love. But what happened was that it felt all too real watching Lucas and Elizabeth break up. It was so real and heavy to watch. All we want when we watch the show is an escape from the real world.
We have waited 10 seasons for Elizabeth to get married again and have a happy family. 😢 I was never team Nathan or team Lucas, just wanted her to find love again. Now it feels like we are starting over. I understand there needs to be some time for her to figure things out, but I hope they don’t drag this out. Please give us a beautiful love story, a wedding, and a happy family. (They already gave us a beautiful story, but oh well). Just don’t take 3 to 4 more seasons. I just don’t have it in me to wait again. 😞
I just had a Nathan fan counter against my comment on another channel. They don't agree with my comment about the breaking of the engagement. What I was told is that is wrong for them to do that. There are two people saying that its not wrong. I think it depends on the beliefs of the leader that you are taught under because even one internet source says that engagement is equivalent to marriage. It is a covenant relationship that one is breaking when they break an engagement. Christian standards have severe consequences when they are wrongly practiced and misunderstood. This series itself is a mixture and not following biblical standards.
@@chelseakong948 i would have like a nice redemption story for Lucas with Elizabeth helping him to settle into small towns living... not another mountie...
@@MrsAPV I like Jack, Lucas, and Gabriel. These men have great character. Lucas fans wanted to see Elizabeth marry Lucas. If they allowed it to continue and finish their story properly, they would be happy. Then they can start the story again. The way they broke the engagement to make this happen really was not done properly. It caused Lucas fans to dislike the show. There are author fans who have stated that the writing is a retcon and it longer can be related to the previous seasons as the characters mostly changed in their personalities. Elizabeth became more matching to Nathan in this season. Mei became more suitable for Mike. Other characters changed a bit so they aren't the same people as they were previously. I felt that Elizabeth is no longer a likable character. I didn't like how everyone in the town was so concerned about her and the way they treated Lucas was awful. Nathan still has something against Lucas through all these seasons even though they became friends. I have no interest to see Elizabeth fall in love anymore. She needs to straighten out her heart as she still is grieving over Jack. Her breaking her own engagement and not being honest to the children is very non Christian even though she can break an engagement. I didn't agree that the calling was a strong enough reason. In season 11, it sounds like Lucas will be in Hope Valley even as governor. Whatever explanations that were given I actually do not support and know that this was their way of changing the direction. It is not a good example to people who are expecting to see a Christian series and I noticed that it has declined in showing the good Christian faith over the seasons after Jack was killed off and Abigail was removed. They have solid Christian character. The Canfield's now are the main ones representing good Christian faith. I am glad that Henry is going in this direction. Sadly, it is in their plan to drag out the relationship between Elizabeth and Nathan. I have no interest in watching an extended repeat version of Jack and Elizabeth's love relationship. That was what somebody commented will happen, so they make people wait a longer time to see that materialize just so they keep the showing going. I don't have patience or interest for that. They cut Lucas and Elizabeth relationship court and that is very unfair.
@@chelseakong948 the Nathan fans comdemn Lucas for being saloon owner but approve Nathan who is always at the saloon drinking....
@@MrsAPV That makes no sense. Lucas changed from what he used to be. The first time I saw him, I didn't like his character, but when as time went by he changed to a likeable character. He even made the saloon into a hotel. He also became one cares about Hope Valley and the only one willing to run as governor to protect HV. The fact that he had to sacrifice made him a very important person. From what I see, Lucas has become a better person, but I don't see that about Nathan. Over the seasons he seems to be better, but still my overall impression of him is he is not a suitable person for Elizabeth in the former seasons. This new Elizabeth matches Nathan's character, but I don't like her character now. This show has lost things that used to be in it before. It has become a soap drama. I can't consider it as a Christian series even though there are still elements in it, but it has greatly declined from what it used to be before. I realized that tv series often has this problem that the longer it runs the worse it becomes. People change things. There have been many complaints now about the show runner, Brian Bird, and the new writers that the scripting for this season was not well written. It is only written to please the Nathan fans. If somebody looks at both sides objectively, they will pinpoint where they failed. It is not just about who Elizabeth should marry. It is about whether the story writing is good or not. I have read several novels already and I would say this season of WCTH is not good writing.
This is going to be LENGTHY, so kudos to whoever sticks it out. I've been team Nathan since the beginning and have continued to be. Thus, my assessment will contain that bias. That being said, I do want to extend compassion to Team Lucas. Although I know the situation is not entirely the same as when Team Nathan fans were let down after season 8 (seeing that a romance was undeniably developed between L and E), team Nathan can relate to the disappointment and, frankly, the annoyance of this never-ending love triangle and feeling strung on. That being said, I do want to share my thoughts on Season 10 and the current situation of Elizabeth's heart.
Season 10 Glows:
-The History. Wow. I loved all the callbacks ---whether it was Jed Campbell, Elizabeth's family, Rosaleen, Christmas salami, or Emily reminding Elizabeth of where she belonged with that card, all of them helped me as a viewer feel connected to the show and made it more believable as characters naturally remembered the people and moments that have made them who they are. More than that, the development of the characters and their interaction with each other felt so rich because we have been a part of their journeys and it was believable. Characters like Lee and Rosemary (I mean that labor scene was SO beautiful to watch), Henry Gowen's redemption and restoration, etc. Those stories and acting were testaments to characters and people who have developed and grown together. I loved how season 10 honored their milestone year in that way.
-I must admit, I preferred the writing this season over the past 2 seasons. The characters felt more like themselves. The stories were richer. I loved when the show would slow down and let the characters have conversations instead of rushing to the next scene. Those are the moments that develop them! (I'm not saying there wasn't development in 8-9, but I can specifically recall moments this season that opened us up to the characters themselves, but not as much from 8-9.)
-Friendship. This season was packed with community and friendships that were wonderfully simple and supportive.
-There are absolutely other, more specific glows, but these are the umbrella of what I enjoyed!
Now onto the Nathan, Elizabeth, and Lucas situation.
How it was handled in the writing:
-Thank you for dropping hints throughout the season about how Lucas and Elizabeth’s paths were diverging. Unlike season 8 which was a back and forth mess, there were hints within episode 2 (Aunt Agatha’s observations). Furthermore, when Lucas wants to build Elizabeth a castle (technically Little Jack’s wording-not Lucas’s) there were hints here too. Elizabeth told Lucas Hope Valley was her HOME. The next day, Nathan talks about how nice it is to be home and as he rides off, Elizabeth says, “Welcome HOME.” All of this to say, it wasn’t a split decision in episodes 10-12 to divide these two and you provided us with the subtle transition. That being said, I can see the confusion, however, because there wasn’t much strife between Lucas and Elizabeth.
Elizabeth’s heart: No. I am clearly not involved in the writing, nor do I know the heart of a fictional character, but I do have some observations. For those who are disappointed in Elizabeth’s integrity, believing she is wishy-washy, here are 2 thoughts: 1) She has not married Lucas. I hope we can all appreciate that she won’t marry someone she doesn't love fully or worse, marry him and desire another man other than her husband. Now that is where integrity would be called into question. Instead, she maturely broke off the engagement (admittedly, the break up itself was written rather rushed for a relationship of 2-3 years, probably for climatic effect). 2) Perhaps Elizabeth, as many have accused, has acted selfishly by playing it safe (for herself and LJ), and therefore, hurting people. From my perspective, Elizabeth is acting “wishy-washy” because, in Season 8 Episode 2, she rejects Nathan out of fear, but in reality has always cared deeply for him. Why would she have equated Nathan to Jack by admitting, “It would hurt too much if I lost you the way I lost Jack,” if she didn’t really love him? She is acting “wishy-washy” not because she likes this person one second, and another person the next, but because she has almost always loved one (Nathan) but suppressed that love by (yes, out of fear and some selfishness) denying him and turning to Lucas. And yes. L and E DID love one another (and in some form, will continue to), just as Elizabeth admits at Jack’s grave. But as Elizabeth may have gotten wrong at the end of season 8, I didn’t see a lifetime love between them. Perhaps he was the reason, someone who opened her up past the darkness of Jack’s death, but showed her the life she wants is truly in Hope Valley. Helped her dream again, and move forward. Lucas has been a champ, respectful and caring, and it is unfortunate that he is left with the short stick of the bargain. I hope Elizabeth will have conversations with both him and Nathan about how her decision to choose fear was hurtful. It will be key if she will develop over again from the pains Jack’s death caused in her own life.
What I like about Nathan and Elizabeth: There has always been this unspoken connection between them. Sort of unexplainably so. Perhaps Lucas represented hope and future, and Nathan would only remind of pain, but Elizabeth will never fully escape the loss of Jack. I believe because of their shared life experiences of suffering that have marked each of them, they will be able to come hand in hand, heal together, move forward together, support one another in the midst of sorrow, and savor the joys of life together. A lifetime love. To me, Elizabeth loved Lucas because of what Lucas did and represented (shared interests, stability, the future), but she simply loves who Nathan IS (she didn’t come to love him because of grand gestures, surprises or passionate displays of his love). She somehow came to love the man who simply sat across from her drinking apple juice. And I’m excited to see how she won’t escape all of her fears, but confront them because the love attached to them is worth it.
What I’m looking forward to: The layers. Because E and N did not end up together in season 8 (In retrospect, I’m glad they didn’t. There were still too many wounds), a genuine friendship has developed (something I felt lacking in L and E) I hope that this friendship will only continue to deepen and ever so naturally turn to romantic love both are able to give and accept. Their relationship hasn’t been perfect, but it has been real. Through the midst of all of their challenges, their relationship has been the better for it.One of the SLOWEST slow burn romances out there, but if it works out, the layers built with time and their honest, rich conversations will be so worth it!
Well that was long winded. If you made it this far, hopefully you enjoyed my thoughts, considered some different ideas, and will remain loyal to Hope Valley! If not, no hard feelings :) Season 10 was great and I look forward to S11!
I appreciate your explanation! It makes me very excited for the next season.
I’m so glad!
Well written. For the most part I totally agree. I look forward to Season 11 and the journey for Elizabeth and Nathan and all the other kind folks of Hope Valley.
@@user-zf5fy6mb1n Thank you. Same here!
Nossa você escreveu um livro 🤦🤦🤦
I always loved this show. It has been my little getaway from life. I feel like i am part of the town. It makes me happy and can feel all of their emotions. ❤ you all!
Elizabeth officially morphed into a teenage girl trying to decide on a prom date, instead of a mature, strong woman. She took years to decide on Lucas and then deserted him at the eleventh hour when he needed her the most. She has lost all credibility as the heroine of the show.
So, I don't WATCH this show, but I did just binge-listen to the whole series, my woman watched it while I was gaming in the same room. I kept telling her the show reminded me of Little House on the Prairie, the setting, writing and themes. As a MST3K fan and an old man, I have extensive familiarity with Michael Landon, when I discovered this show was developed by his son, I was barely surprised. Wholesome entertainment with good intentions, I just wanted to show my appreciation and chose this comment section because I grew up watching Entertainment Tonight.
Finally. They are going to fix the mess. I'm glad that I can start watching again 🎉
There was no mess to fix . Elizabeth and Lucas were truly the best. Season 10 is the real mess. Worst season of the show.
@@cheryllayne2068 S8 was the real mess and a travesty to the foundation of WCTH. E & L were never a fit and had zero chemistry and connection.
@@cheryllayne2068 S8 was the real mess and a travesty to the foundation of WCTH. E & L were never a fit and had zero chemistry and connection.
Me, too! I stopped watching after Liz choose Lucas. I actually love Lucas’s character. I just never loved him for Elizabeth. I don’t believe it was true to her character to have remotely entertained him as a love interest. Lucas is everything she left behind, whereas Nathan represents the life she’s chosen to love & revere.
Lucas should be with Fiona. Their characters would be perfection together. I think they have better chemistry, even in the short moments their characters have been on screen together. Hopefully the writers put them together and fix the mistake of Elizabeth ever choosing Lucas.
@@drkjourney1 Yeah but when they put Nathan and Faith together, that was funny because Kevin McGerry and Kayla Wallace who play them are together in real life so, that's funny they chose to do that.
Thank you to everyone involved in making this show. It is beautiful and I can’t wait for season 11.
yes!!!!😊
I agree with Erin. Look forward to what happens to Elizabeth , Nathan, Allie, and little Jack. Nice to see what they did for Ben Rosenbaum. Very funny as Mike.😊
And what ?? forget about Lucas who did so much to save the town.
What malarky. Elizabeth is officially a teenage girl trying to decide on a prom date. It's not like she didn't take years to decide on Lucas, only to desert him at the eleventh hour when he needed her the most.
They have always been very different. She picked the safe man because losing Jack was still very raw. HE was her true love. However… even Jack wants her to move on and love again. You now know how those of us on team Nathan felt two years ago. It’s hard but that’s what I love about it. I’m so glad I didn’t leave the show and have stayed to watch the journey. We still don’t know if Nathan is the man she’ll be with but I’m excited to find out.😀
If Lucas was a safe choice, then Elizabeth should be the actress not Rosemary. There's no way the relationship she had with Lucas was because he was a safe choice. That was the dumbest line ever said the whole season. It just shows that the showrunner is so clueless about the characters and this show.
@@user-pq4tq5dh1e They got the safe choice line from the nathan fans.
I’m so over this love triangle. Won’t be watching next season but looking forward to updates.
Thank you for giving what is going to be an EPIC love story a chance!!! I am so excited to see Elizabeth and Nathan fall madly in love! 🥰💜
Family GRANTed 🩷
@@mrsacos Yessssss 😭🥰🙌🏻💕👏🏻
I don't think anything with Nathan will be epic. He's a whiney hiney.
She’s going to break his heart anyway
I think it was a perfect end because everyone knew she loved, loves Nathan! Fear is why she did that to Nathan and chose Lucas.
💯

You maybe don't, but don't come crying when both guys you fooled kick you in the entitled butt.
@@susivarga7303 to me it’s a show. There is more to wcth than Elizabeth. I like all the characters,
After waiting ten seasons to see the beautiful story of a "Teacher and a Mountie," (based on a Janette Oke book,)I am thrilled to know it will be on our screens soon! ...Patience is indeed a virtue! Kudos to the writers!
that story was already played out. her mountie was Jack. not this boring version of Nathan
Which means it about to get boring....
@@Suzuzu1 nope it wasn't boring at all. Nathan isn't Jack. He is his own man. S11 was awesome showing strong, deep emotional stories. It showed Nathan's steadfast love for Elizabeth. They showed romantic love with Nathan and Elizabeth. They showed true love. This was always Elizabeth and Nathan's love story S6 forward.
I hate that the season is over already! I wish that When Calls the Heart could be on every Sunday evening year round. This is our favorite show on TV and Hallmark is our favorite channel to watch. At least we can start watching the new Christmas movies now. I've recorded all my favorite Hallmark Christmas and regular season movies so I watch them whenever I want.
So she strung Lucas along when she always wanted Nathan. That is such appalling behaviour. 🤦♀️
Or just bad writing? Because it has been. And let's not act like Lucas is above-board with everything, the guy's a fraud.
@@radicalreactions1633 A fraud? 🤔 Because of course Nathan has always been so up front with Elizabeth. Get out of here with that BS. 🤣
Excellent interview Erin. Great finale. Loved you visiting Jack’s grave and talking to him
I am so happy to be watching this show. All the actors and actresses that have been picked to star in this series has been phenomenal. I am a little sad that Lucas and Elizabeth are not together anymore but in real life that’s how things go sometimes so be it in a show also. The show is something everyone can watch. I love the simplicity of the times. I could go on and on but I think you get the idea. Can you say hi to everyone from me and I will anxiously be waiting for season 11.❤
Adoro a série é acho que ela se encontra com o único marido que é o Nathan
Has anyone noticed thst the words 'Be Safe' has been useed so many times? Lizbeth said that finally to Nathan in 10. It's their way of telling eachother how much they care
Yes, I did notice that. She has always told him to "be safe". He returned this phrase when he confronted her in the school house. "What do you want."
that's what friends do... nothing unusual here
I’m so thrilled at the possibility of Elizabeth and Nathan!! Perfect for each other!! ❤
Me too, but I’m so tired of this back and forth! It’s been 5 years for heavens sake…
Yes. How long will it take for Elizabeth and Nathan to work out. If they even do. I'm nervous to get my hopes up about those two. Maybe I should not?
I don't know what you guys see .. Nathan and Elizabeth are not good together. He's too boring and no personality. Jack is always full of surprises, I believe Lucas will be a perfect fit for Elizabeth
Boring? he is always on adventures to protect the town. He is much deeper than he seems. No need to have a castle in the mountains like Luca's ambition to show dynamics @@orchids1555
Elizabeth needs to be single for a good length of time to redeem her character
Why cant the viewers see that Elizabeth only said yes to Lucas because she was fearful of being with Nathan and experience the same thing she went through with Jack. She was only with Lucas because he was safe!!
Sorry, but it just make her look bad. If she wanted "safe" relationship she should be honest with both of them, not go and play with Lucas and Nathan's feelings. For me, this looks like she never really loved any of them. I can't imagine she would ever do that to Jack.
It’s a stupid thing to do pick someone because he was the safe choice.and that isn’t why they broke up .Lindsey said there was going to be a wedding .And then changed her mind for reasons that don’t make sense.
The only thing that would have made sense is if she picked Nathan from the beginning .
I thought the last few episodes were handled beautifully and I hadn’t watched since season 8. I loved her scene at Jack’s grave and I believe she confessed who she really loves. I was glad they didn’t throw Elizabeth and Nathan into some passionate kiss that soon after her breakup with Lucas. I always have thought Lucas belongs with Fiona.
@christystock 2734 interesting thought of those two... now that you say so, I also agree!
They are together in real life:)
@@lolidrummer fiona and Nathan are engaged in real life. Elizabeth dates Mike in real life is at least did.
@cristianateixeirasantos4417 Fiona did say that's why she meddled in other people's life. To not think of her own. Maybe that was a hint of what's to come. With Lucas.
Elizabeth has mean girl tendencies-at least this season 10 Elizabeth does. The cruel coquette she’s become.
So hopeful for Elizabeth to be with mountie Nathan!! YES!
Its a yes for me too
I watched this show from the very beginning. It had this feel-good feeling to it. They mentioned God alot and they would come into the church to see Pastor Frank Hogan. He would give them Guida and counsel. He would go out and help others as well. The rest of the town would help as well. It was the kind of show you could watch with your family and friends. You walked away from it feeling good. Then you would just go on with your life. Now I see alot of contention and negative comments. Mingled in with some that are positive. This is very sad. 😢. I'll admit that they're are some moments that don't make sense and I like the way it used to be written. I even wish they had the Christmas movies again. I don't feel comfortable being around so much negativity so I think I will just bow out. If people want to continue to watch that's okay. I don't think it's for me anymore. It feels too much like a soap opera now. God bless everyone!
I feel the show is going back to the original humble beginnings.
Yes and I am so excited. It was always about a Teacher and her Mountie.
I don't see that at all. Elizabeth wasn't a cruel and heartless person in the previous seasons like she is now. Her character is very unlikable now. Women back in that time didn't act like she did this season.
Erin, you are so beautiful in your curls! I haven't even clicked yet to see what you have to say; but, I just wanted to mention that.
Awwwww that’s nice
I'm so excited for the new direction of the show. I know lots of Team Nathan fans who will be returning. Woooo Hooo!! Bring it on!!!
Não aceito Elizabeth separar do Lucas e f
icar com Nathan não tem nada haver. Acho ele um bom amigo e mais nada. A série vai perder muito se acontecer isso.
Loool, fans were devastated when Jack died, some fans were devaststed when she chose Lucas and now some fans are devastated they are broken up. After all that the show is still going and the die hard fans are still gonna be here regardless of the direction of storylines.
The stories use to be wholesome and make sense. Now they are all over the place. I realize these are fictional characters but Elizabeth is starting to get on my nerves. My opinion. 😊
@@mariea2710 The nature of the storytelling has definitely changed and I do think there's alot more drama than has been necessary, however I still watch; not as enthusiastically as before but still.
I will watch too I think ,but like you I’m not as enthusiastic as before.
But I do want to know what happens to Lucas.And if he gets a good storyline I will continue to watch .probably skip the N& E scenes .
We are so very grateful to you Erin, and all of the people that make When Calls the Heart a reality for us! May God bless all of you! We are so very excited for Season 11 !!! In the meantime, we have all of the seasons on DVD, and will keep it alive!
Bruh! Are you for real? DVD??????????
For those of you who understand "love language" it is easier to understand that E and L did not communicate in terms of how they shared their love for each other.
L was always showing E how much he loved her through grand gestures. She would always come back with her desire fore more subtle intimate gestures. The only passionate kiss they shared were immediately after E chose L. Their kisses after that were formal or more platonic.
E's relationship with N has always been cordial hiding the smoldering emotions beneath the surface. They have built a strong loving relationship as friends because their love language is similar and more personal.
This series has always been subtle and has evolved as circumstances evolve. Deep relationships take a lot of time, patience and effort to build and sustain. We as viewers of the show aren't as patient because we get small snippets for 12 weeks every 12 months. Our feelings about season endings change with time. Now it's time to calm ourselves so we're ready for what comes next.
It’s an unbelievable storyline. Nathan is lackluster. And it’s ridiculous to think she’s been harboring feelings for Nathan through this whole relationship with Lucas. It’s ridiculous.
Give us break, the beautiful intimate scenes with Lucas & Elizabeth were off the charts, if l were Nathan l wouldn’t go anywhere near her, he is her third choice after all, make no mistake she’s a total diva, stringing two handsome men, they should leave her to raise her son and not hook her up so quickly, that way she may gain her credibility back.
This actress is good when it comes to the social scenes but when it comes to love scenes she is so dry....
I THINK I WILL PASS ON THIS NEVERENDING SHOW.
you obviously are on Team Nathan 😆
Oh my goodness! I am SUPER EXCITED to see Nathan and Elizabeth together! I've always been team Nathan!!❤❤🥰🥰
Not a fan !!!! Lucas and Elizabeth yes... Nathan nope
I agree
Team Nathan, Team Lucas? Are we all in the 7th grade? Who cares? Get on to some new and improved way to drive the plot. This continuing story arc (now going on 5 years now) shows a real lack of creativity and imagination.
Lucas is indeed exciting, but with other higher business and political plans and ambitions @@orchids1555
Sorry but that’s who is she going to marry@@orchids1555
I loved this show when it first came out... right up to the point they killed Jack off. I'd be happier if they said they never found Jack's body, bring him back with a case of amnesia like they do in the soaps. Obvi, that's not going to happen. I quit watching when Elizabeth chose Lucas. In my mind, she chose Lucas because he was the safe choice not because she actually loved him the most. She was torn between Lucas and Nathan and chose to protect herself. All that reeks of is regret. That wasn't the only reason I stopped watching, because Lucas is everything she was so set against. He was the life she ran from, which is another reason she chose him. Another safety net. A life without struggle. 3rd reason I stopped watching: It was supposed to be about a teacher and a Mountie. Not a rich heiress meets rich heir. I'm going to have to watch season 10 now...
I agree. There have been several hints through the season that made me wonder what that was all about. But the last one was when Nathan came to class room and at the end told her to be safe. The way she looked when he said that told the story.
I quit watching when she chose Nathan too! It was impossible for me to believe that they put a teacher with a salon owner! In that era, she would have lost her job! It seemed as the show progressed they forgot to keep it realistic with the times. Even Elizabeth passionately kissing Jack before her marriage would have hurt her reputation and her career. I loved it when it first came out because it was keeping with the authenticity of the times. Somehow that went out the window along the way, which was another reason I stopped watching the show. I am glad to see that she broke up with Lucas, but a broken engagement, back then, would also have hurt her reputation. Teachers had it hard back them. They were highly scrutinized. People were very picky about who taught their children back then, and that involved the teacher's personal life.
Well, they just lost a fan. Season 9 was lacked luster and I liked Lucas and Elizabeth together, but the writing was so bad and made them dull and the rest of the characters more like caricatures. This year wasn’t much better and not worth the long wait. The Show has lost it’s roots and credibility a long time ago.
@@LAnnMcK IK right. Either way seems like a soap opera. I watched season 10 in a binge and it's like they're trying to kill the show.
@@alejandrabarnett6442 I feel the same way. I binge watched season 10 just because I wanted to see. Curiosity's sake and I've been pretty sick, so I had time! I could write better fan fiction than that.
I have so much hope for Nathan and Elizabeth.
It does happen all the time in real life. I thought she went with Luke because he was safe. But she loves the mountie. I luv the series.
she doesn't love anybody but herself
I’m really confused by the claims that Lucas was excited by running for Governor. All indications led to fear and doing it out of necessity. Lucas said this verbally, and even expressed to Elizabeth how much it meant to him to have her by his side as he faced this.
Lucas has always wanted life in a small town, he said so in season nine. I’m confused how this is not rewriting
Yes you are right
I don’t understand people that are saying that is what he wanted.
Everyone pushed him to go .
He even asked E & she said yes & offered to go with him just to change her mind at the last minute
It feels like they want to tarnish his character a little to make Nathan likeable.
He run for governor with her blessing.... Now they don't share the same gestures?
I thought JAck was building her a house out of town too.
Loved the finale I hope next year their is romance for Nathan and Elizabeth. I hope Abigail comes back to Henry. 4:13
Me too
Well yes Elizabeth's and Lucas break up was very tuff on Lucas's fans but just remember at the end of Season 8 it was also tuff on Nathan's fans..just saying..I'm so glad I never took sides all along since Season 1 I have truly enjoyed this beautiful show and will continue watching no matter what storyline it has..some people are critizing Elizabeth as to having 5 man, well if I remember correctly she has only had 1 true love and has been married only to one...she never dated the others except for Lucas. In my opinion and being married for 43 years, if you are not 100 percent sure you truly love someone or want to be with that one you are engaged to its best to break it off before you get married..that just my opinion of course. Thank you for this great interview and I am patiently waiting for Season 11.
Perfect ending! Elizabeth’s talk with Jack about Lucas and choosing something safe was so real! The future is bright for Hope Valley!
Boy...that's a kind interpretation. Actually, I think Elizabeth came off looking like a moon-struck teenager, agonizing over who to go to prom with, instead of a strong. mature woman. Couldn't/shouldn't she have had that "talk with Jack" before she accepted his proposal? It's not like she took years to decide on Lucas, only to desert him at the eleventh hour when he needed her most. Oh wait a minute...that's exactly what she did.
Agree with you
The only thing bright about HV future is Lucas saving the town not E and N. Jack and Lucas are men of action who made HV better... Nathan best remains a Jail keeper to satisfy E fantasies.
Yes because of Lucas saving it.
@@80077655 🤣🤣🤣🤣. You would think she will ask Jacks opinion about the engagement before accepting.. she has become a joke...
We didn’t want them together. So happy about it. Hopefully, she and Nathan will end up together!!!
Amen to that
Nathan and Elizabeth together makes no sense. Nathan is a pretty boring character.
Good luck with that. After what they did with Elizabeth and Lucas, I wouldn’t trust the writers if I were you.
Who's to say that after 2+ years Elizabeth will realize that she hasn't found Jack in Nathan? After all, Lindsay & Brian said that if Elizabeth & Lucas were to marry, their storyline would end, WCTH would end. So if they don't believe that their writers can continue a good storyline for Elizabeth & Lucas, what will they do with Elizabeth & Nathan? Oh, I forgot, Nathan is a Mountie, he'll do Mountie duties & Elizabeth will worry just like she did for Jack or maybe Nathan will continue making his rounds...boring.
I can't wait to watch Elizabeth and Nathan fall in love in Season 11!
Oh yeahhhhhhh
I have always hoped that Elizabeth and Nathan would finally end up together. But with respect to the producers and writers, I just waited with hope after that twist in the last minutes of season 8, ep 12 when Elizabeth chose Lucas despite the strong hints of a romance with Nathan. Then this twist came in ep 11 of Season 10.
Hopefully it's E&N. If it's them, it will take time, of course.. Patience is a virtue indeed. Also, the development of the other characters are wonderful especially Henry's.
Cheers WCTH!
🛑🛑🛑 One more thing I would like to add… If I hadn’t been such a true fan I would’ve stopped watching it when she picked Lucas because I just knew in my heart it was the wrong choice and it made me frustrated and sad but now I’m holding hope that she will completely open her heart and realize she should be with Nathan 180% ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Why Nathan... just so she replaces Jack with another mountie? Lucas is risking it all to save the small towns... that's noble
@@MrsAPVIt's about the MAN, N
ot the occupation. Maybe at first she did see Jack in Nathan but after all this time, she gets to know him beyond him being a mountie. They always find one another, they think alike, and understand each other, they always know what one another is feeling. Their on screen chemistry is magical. I always believed she would love Lucas for now, but love Nathan forever. As Rosemary said, maybe engagements show you if you're really meant for that person. They are too different. Nathan and Elizabeth just connect. 👌🏻💖
@@EllebaybayX0 the only one with a problem is Elizabeth. She only thinks of nathan when she visits Jacks grave. She said before that nathan came for a reason but not her life time. She needs to talk to pastor Joseph for advice. 😀
I know a lot of folks want the teacher mountie connection but the novel is based on another Elizabeth thatcher who is this Elizabeths aunt on william thatchers side. It was her aunt who married a mountie.
The one erin plays in the series (the younger Elizabeth) didn't marry a mountie. The story continues in "when tomorrow comes" where the older Elizabeths daughter struggles to find a husband. She will not marry this rich good guy for the same fears Elizabeth in the series has.. fear of high society life. She will eventually marry the rich man who was genuine and humble and down to earth called carlton after they both prayed for God's direction ... so not sure where this series is heading. But the books are amazing.
Totally agree! They both have the chemistry and am a great fan of Kevin...biased perhaps for the role he is playing - tho I do like Chris a lot too he is good looking for sure, but not for Elizabeth love interest ...Mountie & Teacher is for me!!sorry Lucas fans!!!
@@MrsAPVI've never read them, I intend to though. I know Janette Oak said, whomever Elizabeth chooses doesn't matter so long as the essence of the story and show doesn't change.. we're headed into the 1920s, and I don't think when the show started that it would become so beloved. Lucas allowed Elizabeth to open her heart again, he was loving and kind, and adoring...lavishly.. but we all know Elizabeth just wants a simple life with her son in Hope Valley. At the end of the day, their dreams just didn't align. I feel for all Lucas fans, Nathan fans (I am one) have felt this same disappointment and sadness, Lucas deserves a woman who can give him EVERYTHING and who shares his big dreams, that woman is just not Elizabeth. I also agree and HOPE she speaks to Pastor Joseph, there's a lot of changes coming for her in Season 11. ❤
I hope in season 11 we finally see a kiss between Nathan and Elizabeth ♥️ I can't wait!!! 😍
Me too I can’t wait (hopefully they seal the deal)
🔥 🔥❤
Take it slow writers! No kiss on next seasons ...build their relationship thru friendship and bonding and supporting each other...for the fans to trust the writers or creators' storylines again!!or lead to a final happy ending!!witha bang!!Lol!
Yes!!!! Nathan and Elizabeth who else🤷🏼♀️🤷🏽♀️
The new season...Elizabeth gets her way as usual.
Lucas adiou o casamento com Elizabeth, para concorrer a eleição, com um único objetivo, Salvar HOPE VALLEY, e Elizabeth concordou, porque também era o objetivo dela, salvar a cidade. Não poderia deixar o Lucas sozinho nesse momento de transição. Estou triste😢. Elizabeth Thatcher tem que pedir perdão a Lucas e voltar para dele, lindo casal, e lindo pai do pequeno Jack❤❤❤❤
Getting so tired of ALL of Elizabeth’s drama! It’s getting old.
I agree
Yes Team Nathan! oh ya I'd love it!
It seemed she had already chosen Lucus and Nathan was just a friend. She definitely was affectonate and showed she was "in love" with him. How can Elizabeth change back to not really loving him? We are disappointed.
Well I am not and so many others tooo!!!!!
Have the TL fans ever watched "the Notebook"? Allie loves Noah, gets engaged to Lon and comes back to Noah 7 yrs later. Same with E&N, it's really not that hard to grasp. It worked well for The Notebook, it will work well for WCTH
@@chrisb1863
You cannot be this stupid, to compare the 2.
@@chrisb1863 Yes & if you listen to podcasts with Lindsay, she references other shows that she got 'inspiration' from. Apparently that's what she does: takes stories from other shows & tries to fit them into WCTH,. Well, sorry, but they don't always work....like now!
That was alot different how can you even compare the 2@@chrisb1863
Lucas's dreams were always too big for Elizabeth. I never liked their chemistry. I quit watching because I didn't like the way they were together. But, I decided to binge the season just to see and I'm glad I did. Elizabeth had always been slow and deliberate with her choices. I hope Elizabeth and Nathan get together!
They're not suited for each other!!! Nathan and Elizabeth definitely not. Good luck to all the fan of Nathan and Elizabeth .. welcome to a boring episode.
Lucas dreams were never big
He said it twice “this is where I want to be here with you”
He asked first if he should run & she said yes.volunteered to go with him then backed out .
@mccormickcandd totally agree with you! you really got it. He found his true call in politics and in a big city. I also was not touched by their chemistry... Yes she is slow to decide... she was grieving a loss husband with a small child... of course a woman chooses safety above all in those circumstances
That’s right! I agree with you.
What chemistry? LOL, sorry but they have none.
🙄 blah blah blah. All for keeping it’s fans on a hook so they will keep watching.
A comment from a TN fan said she can hardly wait to finally see a kiss between Elizabeth & Nathan....well, I wonder if their kiss will be as passionate as Elizabeth & Lucas's kiss on the bridge, in the Library, after the motorcycle race, the many kisses when Lucas spent the night hiding, the many goodnight kisses, in Lucas's office when they both said 'I Love You', when Elizabeth returned from Hamilton, after Elizabeth said 'Yes to it all' when Lucas proposed....oh, I forgot, Elizabeth was FAKING..... Ridiculous!!! And yet alot of people don't understand why we're insulted...we're suppose to believe the breakup scene!! I just shake my head in disbelief. Good gracious, if they wanted us to believe this loving relationship didn't mean anything & wanted them to breakup, then make it believable. Just RIDICULOUS!! Well, Erin & Chris are really good actors & maybe we just got to caught up in the fantasy of the show we loved.
Dude, go to sleep
I don't know how they think this ridiculous break up would be believable. We know what we saw. Season 6 to 9 happened and they could never erase it.
@@cheryllayne2068 I 'm rewatching Season 10 to see if I missed clues that a breakup was coming....so far nothing. In an interview with Lyndsey S she said in the beginning, they were going to go with the wedding, but after she binge watched WCTH from Season 1 it changed. She wanted to be true to the characters. Sorry, but they totally missed the boat. Guess Season 11 will be about Elizabeth & Nathan, the Mountie. The Mountie that reminds Elizabeth of Jack. Only difference is that Elizabeth had chemistry with Jack, like she had with Lucas. Good luck trying to find chemistry between Elizabeth & Nathan.
I agree! All those beautiful scenes... On the bridge, in the library, the lanterns, the trip to see Virginia Wolf...the list goes on...And now Elizabeth dumps Lucas who's about to go off and try to save the town she claims to love...in a few brief moments at the train station...totally pathetic!!
@@Melissa2756 what's really sad is that Lyndsey & Brian think the breakup scene was wonderful & moving. Apparently, the writers did 'too' good of a job writing the LOVE story for Elizabeth & Lucas in Season 8 & 9 that it makes the change in Elizabeth's heart, or she made the wrong choice, so unbelievable. Lindsey, Brian & even Erin say that in real life couples breakup all the time, we need to accept that Elizabeth & Lucas's relationship changed. ...total insult. It's not just that feelings changed, it's the way they wrote & produced that storyline. It's obvious that the original storyline was to have the wedding, but all of a sudden they decided a breakup would make way for better future storylines & wrote, in haste, a breakup in Season 10. So obvious!!
So us Nathan fans new where her heart was and asked questions that are now being validated.
THAT PART!!! So we weren’t crazy after all lol
Validated after they totally rewrote the history of the show? Yeah, if it makes you feel better to believe that. Without a total rewrite there was not a romantic relationship between Nathan and Elizabeth. I guess complaining does sometimes get people what they want.
Nathan's character is stupid if he trusts that her heart is now with him...I love you but I am not in love with you oh wait I changed my mind...shows no real character or grace.
Agree if a new showrunner hadn’t come we would have had a wedding instead of this disaster..
FINALLY! ❤
I’m disappointed the writers decided ending Elizabeth and Lucas’s relationship. It was a beautiful, romantic, believable courtship, the relationship with little Jack was adorable and fun, and such a sweet proposal. The chemistry between the two was great, and came across very romantic, and realistic. The writers had the actors committed to one another, and had Lucas go above and beyond to show he was there for her. It was a great love story written, and viewers love to see good chemistry onscreen, and a happy every after. I was looking forward to their wedding, and future plans as husband and wife, and raising little Jack together. To be engaged to Lucas, and now have Elizabeth change her love for him back to Nathan who she previously told she loved him, but was not in love with him, is just bad writing, confusing, and disappointing for us viewers. There is no chemistry with Elizabeth and Nathan on screen romantically, they just look like good friends, or siblings, and the writers should have kept it that way. It was a cute, caring, fun friendship. It will be hard to appear believable being anything more. I do love the series, and the actors, and acting are great.
Totally agree with you
Yay!!! Can't wait for more of Nathan & Elizabeth's journey!
Yes!!! Finally!!
@@amandaesslinger7343 Only he´s second choice now. If it were real life, which of course it isn´t, Nathan wouldn´t give her the time of day. Neither Nathan nor Lucas deserved such shabby treatment.
Nathan wants to marry out of guilt over what happened to Jack. Thats not love. He is not better than Lucas. Lucas is a hero in his own way. So i hope he comes back to settle with Elizabeth
Nathan moved to Hope Valley because he felt a duty to watch over Elizabeth & Jack. (Rosemary called that, "noble & selfless".) He tried to move on with both Mei & Faith, but "something was in the way"... guess we'll find out in S11 if it might be his love for Elizabeth.
Nathan & Lucas both have their strengths & weaknesses... but Nathan is definitely a better match for Elizabeth. S10 highlighted how wrong Elizabeth & Lucas are for each other. She likes simple things... he likes grand gestures/surprises. She is content in her row house & wants to raise Jack in Hope Valley... Lucas wanted to build a castle, was destined for a bigger stage & said he "found his calling" as governor.
Why would anyone even want Lucas & Elizabeth together after she said he was her "safe" choice & that she couldn't give him her whole heart?
In real life, if more people were honest with themselves and each other, fewer heartbreaks would happen. This was the right decision, within the story. Team Nathan, lol!
This new storyline has no credibility just like Elizabeth.
❤❤❤
I hope Chris does not leave.
Chris said in an interview that he is there for season 11.
I would if I was him the way they've treated his character
@@user-pq4tq5dh1e Yes. They treated Chris' character with a lot of disrespect. I have no regard for Nathan. I am not against Kevin McGarry, but I never liked his character. He is a great actor and I enjoy watching him in movies, but not in WCTH. His character is very selfish and immature. He doesn't deserve to have Elizabeth has his wife as they intend to make them. It disgusts me. I am not usually offensive to write about shows, but this series really pushed a sensitive part inside me that just makes me feel like release all the negative feelings and thoughts that I have towards what this show runner, Brian Bird, and writers have done. I don't feel sorry for the Nathan fans who left the show and now saying that they returned and prefer the Lucas fans to leave the show. They caused a huge division when they did this and worse than that. There is a hatred and something very evil behind what they did also. That is what I have observed. They act all calm and nice, but there is something very wrong behind these people. I don't think it was there before.
Alot of viewers are saying they feel insulted and led on and are disappointed that a three year long relationship ended in a few minutes. I respectfully disagree. I personally did not think L& E were a good match, simply because of their different values. No doubt they loved each other and the relationship was authentic, however it was clear to me all season E was having doubts even before the whole Governor thing. I didn't even realize Nathan was even on her radar until they had that moment in her house after Allie babysat for the first time. I always saw an undeniable chemistry with E & N but she never allowed herself to pursue or even acknowledge it due to her past experience, which made it easy for her to chose Lucas; the safe, comfortable, low risk choice. I am not surprised at all by the authenticity of how things ended because I always saw things this way, if anything it shocked me that it actually happened cause now here she is again single and potentially about to start yet another romance. My hope is that they deal with this delicately and in a timely manner.
Agree! Integrity and wholesomeness remain I hope not this rooting for L or N..we must enjoy the show and remain respectful and compassionate as fans ..life is difficult as it is and I have to remind myself its only a show!
Essa temporada, foi um desrespeito à história de Elizabeth e Lucas.
Tudo muito confuso.
Sem arco narrativo.
Isso de triângulo amoroso já está um saco de aguentar.
Foi ela que foi atrás dele chorando agora essa palhaçada.
Nada contra o Nathan, mas ela realmente combina com Lucas.
Temporada passada era só amor, carinho nessa essa coisa maluca.
I loved the last two episodes. I have never been a Lucas fan; team Nathan 🤞
I actually liked that she choose to be with Lucas, best art reflects life in real life after you lose the love of your life you tend to rebound in more short term relationships, i think season 10 felt the most honest and real in comparison to season 8/9
LOL, if you like frauds, ok.
My god thank you for this interview! I can't wait to see what's next for Elizabeth and Nathan! 🥰❤
I don't understand how E breaks up with L at the train station, but everyone in Hope Valler acts like she's the victim. I don't care to see a romance with Nathan and Elizabeth. If that was the end game, she should have chosen him then. All that was built in her relationship with Lucas has more depth than anything she ever had with Nathan. Physical attraction is not a relationship.
Having her drag her feet, and finally chose L, be openly in love with pda with him, all to call it a "safe" choice at the end is repulsive. Did you forget how he challenged her to be a better writer, and helped fulfill her dream to be published? Gave her a Library to go with the school Jack built her? What foes she really has with N if not lust? The Elizabeth character lost integrity, values, and common decency. Yet, she's the one being cuddled, and we're supposed to be happy at her making bedroom eyes to Nathan on the day she was suppose to marry L?
I really use to love this show because it was different, and had good values, faith and community. But now it leaves a bad taste iny mouth.
The entire team L, team N was despicable to begin with, but now the very lame breakup and emotional cheating on your fiancee, yet no one in Hope Valley calls her on that behavior is very off-putting!
This is just my thoughts. You said everything so well!!
Beautifully said
So well said. Everyone in hope valley even the children think Lucas is the villain, well in reality we know who is
E doesn’t even bother to explain to the children that she was the one who told Lucas to run for the elections.
Well said
Love Love LOVE this story line. Sooooooo looking forward to season 11. (it can't come fast enough). Go team Nathan and Elizabeth!!!! 😊❤
Team Nathan? Are we all back in the seventh grade?
I can understand when a couple has to break up & go on different paths. But do it organically and with authentic honest storytelling.
For whatver reason you decided to switch to a different end game and then set out to disprove established canon, storyline , commitments and character growth and changed two people, their goals and their dreams ( Lucas's was consistent over 5 seasons that he had seen a lot of the world and wanted to just belong finally in a place he could call home and build a family and help the community).
Elizabeth saying she was not "following her heart" for the last 3 + seasons makes her character lose all integrity and makes a farce of the whole show -especially when she took her time to start a relationship & committed to it again and again by her actions.
Breaking up a couple is not an issue but insulting your viewers intelligence by the way you got there is - this sort of thing is what comes to hurt a show's longevity.
Thank you for your comments. I agree with everything you've said. And you're right, they have insulted our intelligence. Again, it's just a show, but a show we love to watch because it takes you to a fantasy world with love, friendships, commitments & a little bit of drama. But how they ended that beautiful relationship was like saying, 'hey stupid, Elizabeth never really loved Lucas so now she's going to go after Nathan. Lucas is happy for her because she finally found Jack in Nathan. Now sit back & enjoy as Elizabeth kisses & hugs Nathan as passionately as she did Lucas!' UGH, insulting.

@@sharonnorton2708 I see you. It is truly sad to see a favourite show flounder this way.
Now Elizabeth can send that awful wedding dress back!!
She can keep it to marry Nathan
He liked it .
I am so glad I did not waste my time watching this season. From everything I read, it was like badly written fanfiction, characters telling their story instead of playing it out. Just to think about E telling J that L was the safe choice and her heart was not in it - what a hilarious level of absurdity. I am glad I am not an actor btw, I would never be able to pull it off.
You do not completely toss aside a storyline option and force it back into the story later - you need to leave a door open for that - like E rejecting N because he came on too forceful and that was threatening her independence. Then you can have some N character development which makes E reconsider her choices. Maybe after E and L pretended to split up to keep her and LJ safe from the bad guys that are now onto L. A believable split, bc L would act out of lve and concern and stay in character protecting HV and E. E being around a changed, supportive N while L is away…., sth can grow organically between E and N. And E and L fall under „sometimes love just ain‘t enough“.
Still a stretch, bc totally not time-appropriate, but yeah at least I do not take money for coming up with it… 😉
what????🙄
I like what you said....makes a lot more sense than the current stories. Maybe you should get put on the payroll, then maybe the storylines would make sense. 😊

Lindo amor, muita química Elizabeth e Lucas
“Being true to what was in their hearts”? “Being true to their authentic selves”? No, not at all. On season 8 finale, Elizabeth said “I’ve allowed myself to drift between two good men, whom I never intended to mislead. And so I’ve come to a realization that being untrue to them, I’ve been untrue to myself”. Then she rejected Nathan by saying “I do love you…but I’m not in love with you”. Then ran to Lucas, and eventually said “yes” to marrying him. After everything Lucas had opened up to her about what he went through growing up. She let Little Jack and Lucas build a relationship. She let Lucas believe they are his family. 3 years of Lucas and Elizabeth thrown out within 3 episodes, and making it official within 3 minutes. This show used to be wholesome, it’s now a dishonest show. Thanks for confirming that, Erin.
It is not the sweet pure love we looked forward to watching in this show.
Situations changed with them both. So they had to do some soul searching. They both knew it wasn't working.
As she left his office and walked down the steps she said Nathan was not her Lifetime nor was she to be his. Do the writers think we all have dementia and not remember what is said and what is filmed.
The only reason Lucas felt led to save Hope Valley is because of his love for Elizabeth, she pushed him into running by the way she kept expressing her love of Hope Valley, her fear of change , ( a sign of immaturity), it's all about what Elizabeth wants and no one else, the writers have her character become insufferable, melancholic, fickle and self-centered just like your typical Soap Opera. She obviously loves the town more than she can love any man. She doesn't deserve Lucas or Nathan. The way she has played with their hearts because of her own insecurities and unresolved grief over Jack, she should have remained single like her book, "A Single Mother on the Frontier", that way she would not have hurt any man.
This show used to be a wholesome family show, not a soap opera full of romantic entanglements and drama.
I don't watch Days of Our Lives , hate the whole SO dynamics, unfortunately they are turning WCTH into one.
😢
Biggest gaslighting of an audience I have ever seen committed by a television show. I read an interview with Brian Bird, who stated, and I paraphrase, the show had to change direction to maintain the longevity of the show and keep Elizabeth in Hope Valley. He must think we are truly stupid viewers. His writers created the false dilemma of Elizabeth having to choose between Hope Valley and Lucas. And how does BB know that Elizabeth without Lucas guarantees more viewers. Good heavens. I took all my WCTH merchandise to Goodwill today-and it was cathartic. I will not be duped again.
Elizabeth is all grown up. She knew what she was getting into. Instead of seeing a wedding after a long courtship...we are getting part 2...but this time, it is the Mountie that loses because it looks like he will be getting Lizzie. In the few years that Jack died...we saw a beautiful courtship and engagement. However, Lizzie did not want to leave her friends...so watch out, Nathan...Lizzie is on the loose.
I totally agree. The fact is Jack didn't even die in a war or killed by someone. It was a mudslide or something.... so this whole panick attack she gets is all nonesense. She just can't get over Jack and the red jacket. She will dump the mountie too.
People should be happy they are giving Lucas his own story next season he wouldn't have that if they kept him with Elizabeth 😂
He had a great story with Elizabeth. Which she won't have with Nathan. He's so boring
Elizabeth needs Lucas to be interesting again...
Nathan needs Elizabeth to be interesting..... sure will be a boring relationship.
I think Erin’s cringe when asked about if flipping Elizabeth’s love interest was a good choice says it all. “I hope it is” means to me that she isn’t so sure this was the right direction for her character
That’s not what she said. She said I think it is.
Perpetual love triangle leaves me speechless. It was SO unpopular before, writers thought itd be a good idea to bring it back? Extraordinary poor writing... Years and there's nothing new to write???
Laughable.
Sad for Janette Oke and her extraordinary stories.
Literally. I was so frustrated with her choice last season because it made no sense. Now it still doesn't. Lucas was the safe choice, but she was looking for Jack in Nathan? How are they going to resolve that? I only watched the finale this season and if the next is another love triangle season, I'll likely skip it too. It's not entertaining and it's frustrating.
Same here. Totally disappointed in how the new show runner has cheapened the show and Elizabeth's character. I have watched all the seasons and don't care to watch any more. Awful season and I can only assume that 11 will be just as bad. This is not the character nor integrity of the show I started watching.
Horrible season! Done with the show. They deceived the viewers and I feel no loyalty to the show anymore.
I gotta go back and enjoy Seasons 6-8. Yay for Nathan and Elizabeth!!!! ❤❤❤❤
Same!!!!
Crossing fingers for Elizabeth and Nathan ❤
I am SO thrilled! I can watch this series again. I want to see Elizabeth with Nathan in a happy relationship(eventual marriage) and for Lucas, a really interesting love relationship and marriage with a woman we haven't met yet . Yes, I want happy endings . Happy relationships overcoming things in life together is very interesting and satisfying.
The history of Elizabeth and Lucas is beautiful and now it’s changing a lot, doesn’t make sense, I think the writer should finish this story, we getting tired of this.
🛑🛑🛑I am so happy that Elizabeth is finally going with Nathan I couldn’t stand it all those months when she didn’t belong with Lucas had absolutely nothing in common with him and she kept compromising her morals to fit in with him… Thank God you guys changed it I seen the love between them all these years thank you thank you thank you
So weird.
I trusted Erin, but now I don't.
Why honey??????? Tell me….why?
agree
How about Abigail Stanton? She'll come back?
Ratings and additional seasons is what this production is all about. Elizabeth will cozy up to however many men she needs to for more seasons. watch out Nathan - she already crushed the soul of several men and shown that dangling men on a string is how she operates, you could be next....ratings and additional seasons is top priority! The word of Erin and Brian are worthless - ratings and additional seasons is what it is all about.
You are right. There is a way to tell the story, to keep a show going without lying and misleading fans and then attempting to justify it. Brian Bird and Erin Krakow lost their integrity during/after season 8. They are not people of integrity. WCTH used to be a show that seemed built on principles of honesty/integrity but it is now a show built on manipulating viewers (even with a new showrunner since Tinker is no longer the showrunner). I understand that ratings matter but not at the expense of truth and not at the expense of losing one's integrity. Brian Bird's integrity was shot two years ago...and Erin Krakow's too. That's the real issue here, as you correctly and directly pointed out.
So hope not!! 🙏
Well season 10 ratings tanked. It will only get worse at this point...
Elizabeth is so wishy washy when it comes to men. Nathan will be her 3rd choice and then onto her 4th choice -- Hickam. She's got to work the four in real life friends to the forefront of the show.
@@joannedrozdowski8746 which is why I don't like this idea of fiona and Lucas people are pushing... it feels like it will make her also a lead .. because Lucas is popular in the show. And now hickam runs the saloon
Season 10 with a fantastic felt like we were finally getting back to the old Hope valley that we all knew and Loved before season eight and nine I love that the new showrunner bring back Faith and Hope and love Grace and redemption I am glad Lucas became and that Elizabeth and Nathan are going to have a very slow burn Love comes softly relationship they're just not going to throw them together like they did Lucas and Elizabeth
Totally out of left field
But perfect way to end
The season. Can’t wait till next season. Writers are so creative
Not creative at all
Just using recycled storylines .
They have no imagination.
The other characters became so boring with no stories .
What happened to Faith? No more patients .And & Mei are just bystanders.
Just finished watching.........I'm happy they broke up. Good. Thank you. I wanted them paired over another mountie, but I never thought she was on Lucas's level anyway. I don't like her for Nathan either. If there is a season 11, I recommend matching Elizabeth with a honest, basic, moderately attractive man, (go ahead and throw in two cats for her) and lets pair Nathan and Lucas up with new lovley women of whom will make us all say, "Elizabeth who? " Yeah basically, I'm over her character. And for goodness sakes bring in the backup Abigail. That is all.
Amo o Lucas,sacanagem esta Elizabeth ñ sabe o que quer, optou pelo homem sem educação, sem cultura.
I shuda known this was coming when Nathan stepped back from Faith I did kinda feel them flipping when Lucas wanted to build the house which was insane since when her aunt came he turned down the offer to move. I am vexed but I don't dislike Nathan so am hoping i'll like their journey i do however believe that Lucas was the better fit didn't we already say another Mounty should not be what she does again.... If the actor ever decides to leave the show and they kill him amma be boiling mad
Eu achei uma palhaçada! Mataram o personagem do Jack! Era lindo o romance dela com o Lucas! Porque ela teve muito tempo para fazer a escolha! E agora matam o personagem do Lucas? Só porque os fãs querem o Nathan??? Que palhaçada!!! Mudaram até o jeito daquela professora que veio decidida a ser professora com os seus pobres alunos! E agora fazem desta professora uma adolescente e indecisa??? Então porque não trouxeram outro ator que fizesse o papel do Jack? Não gostei dela terminar com o Nathan!
Lindsay Sturman ruined the show! Season 10 was a hot mess. Why are we going backwards here? Elizabeth finally moved on with Lucas, practically begged him to propose to her in S9 to break up with him in S10? Yeah, that makes sense..Nathan was interested in Mei, then Faith now he’s suddenly in love with Elizabeth again? This isn’t One Tree Hill. I never got the obsession with Nathan & Elizabeth I always thought their scenes were awkward and boring. Sorry but it’s going to be really boring if she ends up with Nathan. And what, is Nathan supposed to tell Little Jack that he was responsible for his dad’s death? That’s just plain weird. Not sure why Elizabeth would go to a man that was responsible for her former husband’s death
Way to go Elizabeth !!
I know she doesn’t write the story but she doesn’t have to act so giddy & excited about it.She said she deserves love.If that wasn’t love with Lucas I dont t know what is .
What a poorly written story that made no sense.This is not what WCTH is.
Again Lucas made her realizes who she really is which is a Teacher and someone who loves the community of hopefully
You're right, you don't know what love is if you think she had it for Lucas, the fraud.
Lucas was mistreated by Elizabeth and he deserved so, so much better. Elizabeth’s character feels so utterly assassinated now.
I know it’s just a show oh but E looks bad in the eyes of so many fans .I don’t see her the same way any more.
Lucas wants the world --he found his true call: politics and changes - -this reasonates with his role
@@cristianateixeirasantos4417 Lucas evidently was scared to go, and he openly said he didn’t want to, but felt the need to. I believe wholeheartedly that Lucas desires to help people, and feels he can make change through politics. However, he has said repeatedly through the series that what he wants at the bottom of his heart is a home, stability, family, and love. Everyone pushes Lucas back toward the world, even as he chooses time and again his new adventure, which is Elizabeth’s and Jack Jr. Lucas doesn’t want the work, he wants a home. Hope Valley never embraced him as their own. In fact, they told him he didn’t belong
This is not the pioneering adventurer and loyal Elizabeth of the books - this is some daft cheater who is only responding to a uniform. Totally disgusted that even though a fake storyline this is all the wholesome goodness they can come up with......... so ugly after putting up with an irritating love triangle the season before........
@@skpn123 This!! Well said, well said!!
Erin, You need to go back and watch S9, Lucas never wanted a bigger stage! He only wanted a life in Hope Valley with Elizabeth and LJ! Worst season ever!
I can't even believe what they say anymore.... Lucas has changed so much and now he is back to being about grand gestures? After an intimate proposal?
Nathan does not make a good couple with Elizabeth. Lucas was so perfect for her, so much that he was willing to save Hope Valley. What a huge mistake to take Lucas out of her life.
Great interview! Thanks.
I'm so thrilled! Elizabeth and Nathan! 🥰 They are such a joy to see together! ❤️🔥 Can't wait!
Yes, you are so sensitive to the viewers who are upset> That is funny!
The only reason Lucas felt led to save Hope Valley is because of his love for Elizabeth, she pushed him into running by the way she kept expressing her love of Hope Valley, her fear of change , ( a sign of immaturity), it's all about what Elizabeth wants and no one else, the writers have her character become insufferable, melancholic, fickle and self-centered just like your typical Soap Opera. She obviously loves the town more than she can love any man. She doesn't deserve Lucas or Nathan. The way she has played with their hearts because of her own insecurities and unresolved grief over Jack, she should have remained single like her book, "A Single Mother on the Frontier", that way she would not have hurt any man.
This show used to be a wholesome family show, not a soap opera full of romantic entanglements and drama.
I don't watch Days of Our Lives , hate the whole SO dynamics, unfortunately they are turning WCTH into one.
😢
Oi desepicionada demais uma história tão linda como Lucas e Elizabeth e agora está traisaocom ficou sem graca
Oh yeah bro I totally understand
lol big change from the first time Elizabeth tried to mount a horse and this clip, wtg Elizabeth!
