Fans of When Calls the Heart go through two emotions regularly. The first one is pure happiness while the show is on air. The second is sadness after watching the finale of the latest season. (After all, how else will you spend Sunday night?) There's a good chance you're reading this after the season 11 finale, in which case, you probably agree with the aforementioned sentiments. Still, you're looking for a new TV show now that you'll be away from Hope Valley. That's when you need a list of the best shows like When Calls the Heart.
If you're going to fill the void that was left behind by When Calls the Heart, then you know it has to be with something just as feel-good and wholesome cast of characters—shows like Heartland and Sullivan's Crossing. At the same time, you'll probably crave a little romance (because Elizabeth's love life has been extremely eventful and you need something to compete with that). The Netflix series, Virgin River, is plenty lovey-dovey for all of the hopeless romantics out there. Oh, and if you fly through this list, don't worry: you'll be happy to know that When Calls the Heart season 12 has already been confirmed.
Add these TV shows to your watchlist:

Heartland
If you love the community aspect of When Calls the Heart, then this is the show for you. Heartland focuses on the hardships faced by a young gal and how she's able to overcome it by relying on her family, close friends, and love for ranch horses.
Sullivan's Crossing
There's something about a story that focuses on a small-town girl who leaves for a big city, only to find her way back home again. That's precisely the plot of Sullivan's Crossing, who sees a neurosurgeon find what life is all about after joining her family back where it all started.
Virgin River
Virgin River has it all: Romance, idyllic landscapes, and plenty of drama. Follow the main character, Mel, as she finds her way back to a somewhat secret but magical town that changes her rocky life for the better. (Turns out, she was meant to be there all along!)
Chesapeake Shores
What's more important:a career in New York or family back home in Chesapeake Shores? This is the question Abby O'Brien faces right when she's at the height of everything for which she's worked so hard. The single mother now has to make a hard decision about what she wants out of life.
When Hope Calls
Anyone looking for a show like When Calls the Heart obviously has to check out the official spinoff. The premise of this series focuses on two sisters, Lillian and Grace, who open an orphanage in a neighboring town of Hope Valley.
Bridgerton
Dear Reader, this show is for you! It's a period piece that takes place during the Regency era in England, focusing on a bunch of siblings—some spoiled, some honest and favorable. All of them, however, have something going on with their love lives and it's not always pretty. (But always entertaining.)
Reign
While Mary, Queen of Scots, was indeed a real person in the 16th century, this popular series is almost entirely fiction. It follows the aforementioned royal figure, and her (again, fictional) rise to power. Yes, that includes affairs, gossip, and so much more.
Cedar Cove
Cedar Cove is a small lakeside municipality that seems to be unproblematic on paper. (It's gorgeous, after all.) But like every town, this place has its secrets. Secrets that are uncovered by the hardworking Judge Olivia Lockhart.
Little Men
This heartwarming story is based on the novel by Louisa May Alcott. You'll watch as two kind, homeless boys find a sense of solace in a boarding school run by a loving couple. There, they find the true meaning of what a "home" is, and lots of other life lessons.
Dickinson
This one tells the life of Emily Dickinson in a very modern and peculiar way. While it's still set in the 19th century, scenes are accompanied by modern music—and the language as a whole is straight from the 21st century. It's a fun take on an old story!
