The train wreck that is S11 continues with the complete character assassination of Lucas Bouchard! While the performance of Chris McNally is outstanding, it is incomprehensible that to elevate a nonsensical Mountie/Teacher pairing the writers have made his character appear shady! They are catering to a partial fandom that has done nothing but barrage since the end of S8! The Series is no longer a feel good happy place, instead it has succumb to an alien invasion of the body snatchers as most characters are unrecognizable! The main character of Elizabeth Thornton has been reduced to a wishy washy fickle character who is no longer kind or likable. The Mountie Nathan Grant has yet to be assigned to Mountie duties as he spends his time making googly eyes at the school teacher when not appearing shirtless...the "beefcake" of Hope Valley!
Their alleged romance is immature with a teenage quality that is unbecoming of these actors! A snooze fest with repeated and rehashed scenes of previous seasons! There is no originality in the writing!
There is no character that has been spared the stroke of this show runner's pen. A partial fandom continues to be gaslighted and given ridiculous explanations as to why a flip needed to occur for a longevity that is not promised as seen in the ratings of this season!
WCTH Heart is no more than a common soap opera and a poor one at that. Your legacy is everything and this Series should have maintained its integrity and ended after Season 9!
