And that is why the hurry up and deal with the fallout, backlash from thousands of disappointed & upset viewers. Lori Laughlin (Abigail) even was urging people not to be angry at the Hallmark channel, it was the producers' decision, blah, blah. They know full well their decision was a bad one. Daniel Lissing (Jack) did say he never in a thousand years expected to ever have a fan base, people caring about him, etc. It is wonderful to have, but totally surprising to him.
I know I sound like a broken record, as do so many others, but the continual urging to watch Season 6, the promises that there are more stories, uplifting, etc. ......does NOT help at all. Doesn't work. They really let the fans of the show down, big time. Astounding all the views & comments (negative mostly) that came about as that was being shown. Even later.
