Page should be renamed

[edit]

This page needs to be renamed, since there is also a US TV series called Heartland, running on TNT: Heartland_(TNT). It should also be added to Heartland_(disambiguation). 82.82.71.244 18:56, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Thanks for pointing this out. Bearcat 01:08, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Update international syndication

[edit]

Heartland is also shown on RSI La 1 in switzerland but i don't know how to edit the page properly. There may also be some updates for other countries.

Edit request on 9 August 2013

[edit]

In the table of US stations, gmc has changed to Uplifting Entertainment, or simply Up TV. The gmc link redirects to the Up TV wiki page. Tgfathergoose (talk) 03:48, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Updated now. Thanks. Rivertorch (talk) 08:22, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Article locks are annoying, Wikipedia is supposed to be open, flagged edits should be allowed. The article has a section about ratings but does not say anything more about Critical response/Reception, it should at least mention Metacritic

  • Metacritic gives Season 1 a score of 42/100 based on reviews from 14 critics.[1]
  1. ^ "Heartland". Metacritic. CBS Interactive.

Unlock the article and I'll add it. Do not add the bullet point, or the extra {{Reflist}} that is just to make this comment more readable. -- 109.76.227.22 (talk) 03:06, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That Metacritic link is for the other series also titled Heartland, not for this one. So it's good that no one followed this suggestion.Dgndenver (talk) 16:03, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"horse whisperer"?

[edit]

I have removed the term "horse whisperer" from the description of Amy since she herself denies that she whispers to horses and thus that she is a "horse whisperer." Since the show's main character eschews that term, I think it's more faithful to the show to not use this term, but to substitute the more general term "natural horsemanship." --Sp3lly (talk) 17:57, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Filming Location

[edit]

It's common knowledge that the show is filmed in a few places, mainly High River AB, with some sets in Calgary as well. Should this be added to the page? I'm not sure if it can be used for verification (I'm relatively new at this and usually focus on wording and grammar), but there's a webpage managed by the town of High River that acknowledges this.

Constable Rodriguez

[edit]

Thought we should discuss this...

I recently (a week or two ago) removed a reference to the character, Const. Rodriguez, as being Mexican-Canadian. Someone changed it back, and I reverted that tonight because I honestly believe it's an assumption that may be incorrect, made by whomever originally submitted his character profile. I admit that his last name seems to suggest such a background, but no acknowledgement of this appears in the show (in contrast, it is made clear that Scott is Aboriginal, through characters' comments and cultural references). Additionally, the actor (Jeff Roop)'s page makes no mention of such a background. I've also looked him up on IMDb, but the actor is simply noted to be Canadian, with no indication of ancestry. I'm not sure that we should assume he is Mexican-Canadian, unless there's some way to verify it. Any thoughts? Sailor7sakura (talk) 04:58, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

It appears that the External Link on the main article and subsequent sub pages within the article listed below is not working properly or being updated in better words. Also it appears that the Watch Now link is no longer supporting the videos (assuming due to Copyright violations) I'd think that going ahead and removing the link would be more beneficial to the article, also making note about how it is available on Up (TV network) subscription via Amazon.com -- any further thoughts on this proposed edit?

Shaun Johnston pic

[edit]

Why is the pic of Shaun Johnston not showing his face, his face is blocked by some head, all you have is his cowboy hat and eyes. Not his entire face, the pic should be replaced. P.J. (talk) 05:56, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Where does "Hudson" fit in the series timeline?

[edit]

That would be useful additional information for this article. Haven't been able to find any such info except I assume sometime during Season 12 since that's when "Hudson" was produced. Bizzybody (talk) 22:34, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Heartland is not a Western!

[edit]

According to Western (genre), we acknowledge the Western to be a genre of ... fiction set primarily in the latter half of the 19th century or early 20th century in the Western United States, commonly referred to as the "Old West" or the "Wild West". Westerns typically center around the themes of conquest of wilderness and "codes of honor and personal, direct or private justice–"frontier justice"–dispensed by gunfights". Heartland is, as we say in the lead sentence, "a family comedy-drama"; it does not qualify as a "western" simply because of superficial similarities (characters living on a horse ranch, herding cattle, and making their living as cowboys). To call it such is original research.

It also does not qualify for the subgenre of "Contemporary western or neo-western", which still "use Old West themes and motifs (a rebellious antihero, open plains and desert landscapes, and gunfights)".

While the extra hands of a task force like Westerns/Television are always welcome, I believe we are being unencyclopedic when we mislead our readers by mischaracterizing the genre of a work. Ideally there should be a TV comedy-drama task force to replace Westerns, but unfortunately WP:TV isn't organized that way. The erroneous categories need to be removed from the article.
