Are Michael and Nora Doomed by Timing? Why When Hope Calls Fans Should Brace Themselves
Image
Hopefuls are impatiently waiting for the news of Season 3 of When Hope Calls. The Great American Family series is a spinoff of Hallmark’s When Calls the Heart. In the second season, Nora and Michael made a romantic connection. However, the couple could be doomed by timing.

Trouble Brewing

Nora (Cindy Busby) and Michael (Christopher Russell) have a slow-burn romance. It’s not steamy and passionate like most relationships on soap operas. They haven’t made their relationship official yet.

In Season 2, they caressed hands, which gave fans some hope. (Excuse the pun.) Busby spoke to Swooon about their relationship dynamic and why it could be doomed from the start.

“Well, I think there’s going to be some trouble. I think there would be some trouble between the two. If the ending of the season is any indication of where their feelings are starting to be questioned,” Busby said.

Hallmark Star Wants Kevin McGarry as Guest on Gaf’s ‘When Hope Calls’!
Image
Come on, we all love Kevin McGarry’s Nathan Grant on Hallmark’s hit series ‘When Calls the Heart,’ don’t we? Well, one person obviously loves him enough to want him to join them on ‘When Hope Calls.’ Can you guess who it is?

Could Kevin McGarry Join Great American Family’s Spinoff of Hallmark Hit Series ‘When Calls the Heart’

It’d be interesting to see the world of ‘When Calls the Heart’ and its spinoff ‘When Hope Calls’ collide again, especially now that the latter is on a different network.

Though maybe right now, I’m getting ahead of myself, because there’s been no confirmation that the show will be returning for a third season.

But if it is, Cindy Busby has a pretty good idea on the ‘When Calls the Heart’ star that she would love to have guest star on ‘When Hope Calls.’

Thankfully, new episodes will premiere on Sunday, April 6. Pure Flix will carry the installments three days earlier, which is pretty neat if you’re like us and can’t wait for Season 2.

The news means that the When Calls the Heart franchise will remain alive following the conclusion of Season 12.

For a long time, we thought When Hope Calls was dead and buried. It first aired on Hallmark in 2019 and moved to Great American Family for two holiday-themed episodes in 2021.

Then, news about the show went quiet, and we were surprised to learn last fall that eight new episodes were in production ahead of a 2025 bow.

Jessica Jones Star's Action Movie Becomes Netflix Hit 2 Years Later Despite 0% Rotten Tomatoes Score

In 2023, the action thriller Mercy was pummeled by critics, getting slapped with a rare and unwanted Rotten Tomatoes score of 0%. However, the film is getting another chance with Netflix subscribers two years after its release.

Per FlixPatrol, Mercy is currently ranked at No. 7 on Netflix's Top 10 chart for feature films, globally. The film was not a big success upon its release in theaters on May 12, 2023. Its reception was especially harsh, given the 0% score on Rotten Tomatoes, and its audience score is only good by direct comparison, as it's also rather low at 17%. The movie was acknowledged at the 44th Golden Raspberry Awards (aka the Razzies), when Jon Voight "won" the award for Worst Actor.
