"WCTH' fans, known as Hearties, become increasingly angry with Netflix as the premiere date for season 6 was released. However, the streaming service still hasn't aired season 5 of the popular series on all country channels. Elizabeth Thatcher-Thornton (Erin Krakow) and Jack Thornton’s (Daniel Lissing) fell in love and all the Hearties know that Jack the Mountie died at the end of season 5.
'WCTH' season six premiere date
Entertainment Tonight exclusively revealed the poster art and release date for season 6. Frustration mounts for those people across the world without cable but who pay Netflix to follow the show. The new season premieres on February 24, 2019. While there are other streaming services, with no season 5 yet shown on Netflix in all countries, options become expensive. Some "When Calls the Heart" fans buy the DVD's but the mood's not good. They feel that if they pay to watch a show advertised, they should be able to see it without paying more.
"WCTH" has many fans from around the world, desperate to catch up and watch the new season.
Heartbreaking as Jack's death was, they still feel a need to be able to at least be somewhere in the loop ahead of the new season. Needing to pay for multiple services hurts the pocket and in some cases, payment's are accepted only from a US bank card.
Options for Hearties to watch 'WCTH'
Ironically, some of the biggest complaints on Instagram come from Canada where Netflix reportedly still has not aired season 4. However, one fan did watch season 5 in Ireland. People can watch on Vudu for $16.99 for season 5. On Amazon, it's $26.99 for season 5 without a season's pass. Meanwhile, it's also available on iTunes. For those who cannot get the Hallmark Channel, it's a frustration that they still have to pay, despite paying on Netflix already.
Here's what some of the followers had to say about Netflix:
- @simply.meganw: "Still need to watch Season 5! Will it ever be on Netflix??!"
- @zaidens_mommy2017: "When will season 5 come on Netflix?!?! I’m dying here with no cable."
- @evynnrosegrignon: "will season 5 or 6 ever be on Netflix?"
- @darthpixi0409" "Would be nice if @netflix would PUT SEASON FIVE ON ALREADY!!!!!! Or click tv would have it on on-demand....."
Netflix under fire for getting behind
While Netflix is under fire for not streaming recent seasons of "When Call The Heart" it may not be their fault. A streaming date has not yet been announced for them. It is not clear what rights and the dates of those streaming rights kick in. However, that does not appease the Hearties who are getting behind on the series. Are you of those frustrated by the no-show on Netflix?
