This show just hasn't been the same since Season 14. It's just not as uplifting as it used to be. Amy is still grieving and now Finn is too. We know Robert Cormier died unexpectedly so now what happens to Amy just when she's starting to open up again? Maybe try her with Sam from Big River. They seem to have good chemistry.

Lou and Peter just do not work any longer. This episode proves that. They no longer have romantic chemistry and he's just so out of place at Heartland. She had a great thing going with Mitch for 6 seasons and he's now all but forgotten. Seriously, did Kevin piss off Heather Conkie? I've never seen a long term character on this show get erased like this. Even Ashley still gets an occasional mention. They could have written Michelle Morgan's pregnancy into the show had Lou still been with Mitch. The cast needs more younger characters and that would have been a welcome addition to the family.

It was great to see Mallory and Jake again. I'd much rather see them as series regulars over Tim's wife who adds no value to the show. The ice cream scene with Mallory, Lou, and Amy reminded me of how great this show used to be.

I'm not sure what the deal is with this newest season of Heartland. Either none of the actors are into it any longer -and who could blame them after so many years- or they need new writers. Every episode seems to drag on and everyone seems.....glum. It's honestly not very fun to watch lately.

Another thing that doesn't work is the Lu as the mayor thing. First off, the actress who plays Lu seems to only want to appear in about half the episodes lately and there is always a convenient storyline that takes her away somewhere so her being mayor of that tiny podunk town...and it's such a big deal she needs an executive assistant?..... the extraordinarily grating Rick, who I would definitely be happy never seeing again.... that storyline never made sense.

Also why can't all of these super successful people not build their own homes on the grounds of that huge ranch?? Tim and his wife living in the barn loft like vagrants? The other 3 families all have to run over each other in that little old cabin? WTH?

And why is Peter back? Worst character in the entire history of the program. Never belonged on the show.

I know that the actor that played Finn died tragically in real life right after the season wrapped, or maybe before? Terrible, but it's such a downer of a season it's like they were expecting something bad to happen? Maybe I'm reading too much into it.

All this aside- the show has never been as good since they killed off Ty. He definitely added something to the show and its just not the same now.
