Is it for me?
Viewers after a warm, unhurried town drama, with faith and slow-building romance, will settle in happily. Elizabeth holds her first classes in a saloon, and Jack, the constable, resents her from the start. Erin Krakow plays her earnest and stubborn, the kind of teacher who answers a stack of eviction notices by scheming so that no widow has to leave.
Before you start
The first season is the heaviest on frontier hardship; later seasons are brighter and gentler, with a self-contained town problem most weeks.
13 seasons, 138 episodes, 60 min each, about 141 hours so far
