‘When Calls the Heart’ Co-Creator Explains Why Series Is a Hit With Christian Audiences
By Jeannie Law , Christian Post Reporter |
Hallmark Channel’s most-watched and longest running primetime series, “When Calls the Heart,” has a loyal following, says Brian Bird, the show’s executive producer who’s worked in Hollywood for over 30 years.
Bird, who’s written and produced dozens of films as well as 250 episodes for network television — including five seasons of the original TV series “When Calls the Heart” alongside his partner Michael Landon Jr. — spoke to The Christian Post about his Christian background and explained why a devotional was created to go along with the series.
