When Calls the Heart Season 7 Episode 10 only further confused fans of one of the greatest love triangles on television as to the romantic future of our heroine, Elizabeth Thornton.

While people have been getting a little bit jittery about the renewal prospects of When Calls the Heart, the truth is, it was never in jeopardy.

The foundation of Hallmark's successful series programming was renewed early for When Calls the Heart Season 7 because people worried that it could be a casualty of behind the scenes turmoil.

But we're excited to share with you the good news now.

Hallmark Channel has ordered an eighth season of the network’s original, primetime drama series we all love so much.

It was announced today by series star Erin Krakow during the season seven finale of the hit show.

And please, rush on over to the When Calls the Heart Season 7 Episode 10 review because we have a LOT to discuss.

If there wouldn't have been a renewal notice in conjunction with the hit series, it's possible that we would have marked the first time in history that #Hearties got a little bit rambunctious!
