When Calls the Heart season 8 spoilers reveal that Andrea Brooks (Faith Carter) spoke about the showrunner on a recent episode of the Hallmarkies podcast. She mentioned that Tinker took each major cast member out to eat. They would talk about the show and their characters. Then he would ask what is probably one of the most important questions… “where do you see your character going?”
This is so important because many shows have actually lost actors due to the showrunner and writers not caring about the cast members’ input. This really let the actors know that their opinions, ideas, suggestions, and perspectives were not only welcomed, but respected.
