Brian Bird (Inaugural) Blog – Season 2 Announcement from the Hearties Newsletter
The following excerpt is from our inaugural Hearties eNewsBOOM, May 5, 2014
“On behalf of my partner, Michael Landon Jr., and our fine cast, including Lori Loughlin, Erin Krakow and Daniel Lissing, thank you from the bottom of our Hearties for your loyal support and for being the best fans any television show has ever had. We could not have achieved a renewal without you, so you should all take heart that you are the reason for the season (2, that is). Obviously, our heads are spinning with the news and there is now much hard work to be done, but we promise to continue delivering the best episodes we can and we are thrilled to have you as official crew-members on our team. You are like the 11th Man in an NBA franchise…and we could not do this work without you as our inspiration.
“Lots more news in coming days and weeks, but along with our faithful, dedicated Admins, we are going to open up the world of Coal Valley to you personally in ways that you can not imagine with all kinds of contests and connection points. We are now more than 14,000 strong in 8 short weeks. What’s to stop us from adding a zero to that total now that we have a huge on-ramp of several months before the S2 premiere? So Hearties take wing. This is your show and you have joined the army for such a time as this! God bless you from your fellow crew-members!”
