Hearts of New England

Having watched the first season several times, I can say this low-budget web series has a real spark in it. This series chugs along with a valiant heart that never stops pumping out the best in its actors. It's quite obvious how much the cast and crew care about this project. The performances of Johnny Aday and J.R. are superb. A true example of how you don't need and bunch of bells and whistles to make a quality show. I say "Keep it up"!

This is fantstic. Just finished the first 9 episodes and it's great! Great directing and cinematography. Sheri Lee and Tyler Hajas' scenes arethe best in my opinion! Very DaVID Lynch-esque! Surprisingly great on such a low budget! I just wish they'd release episodes more frequently.

As an actor and writer myself I always look for new independent projects and for actors and filmmakers to pay attention to. J.R. Fortin and his team have crafted something truly special. While the technical aspects are not perfect (although I would go as far to say that most first seasons of a show have things they need to improve on) The acting across the board is pretty stellar and the writing is what made it for me. My biggest hope is that I can become part of this show and join in on what Maine Event Films is trying to create. Congratulations to the entire team.

This is a great show that was recommended to me on YouTube one day. I clicked Yeah and it started playing, and it struck me how much the world exists. You get the sense these people are real and they have their problems and they have their strengths and you really get behind them. I like the small town vibe, i am from a small town in Ohio. Even when you're in the slower scenes you're ready to follow these characters into hell. I mean this show does not pull punches and it doesn't let up when it gets dark and mean. I like that one shot of the dark ocean and the fence that JR stands on, ready to throw himself into the void. It's things like these show that keep me hooked to something, i need that real connection to the characters and i get it. Looking forward to more of what they put out when they put it online.

I just finished the first series and I must say , it's a rather unique series drenched in depth, character, and colour. With an impressive set of writer(s) and great actors, this series quakes with confidence. It's lovely to see something good coming out of the low budget film scene today. A soaking example of amateur film making at it's best. My husband and I are loving it and J.R. if you're reading this, please make series two!
