What a fine actor Chris McNally is. He is Lucas!! He plays Lucas so well. Was Team Lucas for Elizabeth ❤️ can’t wait to their love story blossoming in season 9
Brilliant casting decision having Chris McNally portray Lucas Bouchard on WCTH. Chris would have done a great job playing Nathan but the character of Lucas was made for him. Chris plays this role so well and has truly brought Lucas to life. Chris and Erin have amazing chemistry and I'm so excited to see Lucas and Elizabeth finally be a couple in every sense of the word.
Well, I feel that Kevin McGarry was meant to be mountie Nathan Grant. There is no way I could have seen Chris being Nathan.😂 Apparently, casting agreed. Plus, I don't think Chris would have beat Kevin for the role of Nathan. Kevin McGarry got a call right away, less than an hour after he auditioned his agent called and asked if he wanted the role of Nathan. So, Hallmark was fast to hire him. Kevin and Erin's chemistry read was amazing is my understanding. That's why he got the role being the mountie. At the same time, I couldn't see anyone else as Lucas Bouchard than Chris McNally. I like both these actors as the characters they were cast. I'm looking forward to S12. WCTH is such a great show! ❤
After seeing Chris in Hallmark movies I was anxious to see what his part would be in wcth. I think he is more than perfect. It's as though Lucas was written just for him.
This for me shows that the show runners knew what they were doing right from the casting of the characters. They knew at the casting what they were going to be doing with both Nathan and Lucas's characters right from the start. It's genuinely amazing that he read for both Nathan and Lucas and was initially called for Nathan but after the reading and especially after doing the chemistry test with Erin they had him read for Lucas. They already knew back then which character would win Erin's heart. And they clearly saw that he and Erin had on-screen chemistry they were looking for. So often I've got the feeling from some fans that they're almost figuring the story out as they go, but no this for me shows they knew more than three years ago that this was always the plan and what they were doing and how it is was going to be. It really shows now that they made the right casting choice. Can't wait for next season. I'm writing this as a someone who actually stopped watching just before Daniel who played Jack left the show as I'd heard what was coming and I couldn't cope, at the time, with that. But it was about a literally about a week ago that I saw a video of Lucas and Elizabeth and I was instantly hooked back into the show and started my binge watching to catch up. Can't wait for what comes next for Lucas and Elizabeth.
I also felt the same that Lucas was the one for Elizabeth. He was written for her specifically and how they fit and the build up and so on. Glad you started watching again.
And…the rest is history! It was so meant to be and EVERYTHING about Chris McNally as Lucas has stolen my heart and totally captivated me! He is such a wonderful actor and I can’t imagine anyone that could bring the character of Lucas to life better than Chris! S9 is going to be the best one yet! ❤️
Chris has defined the role of Lucas. No one else could be in that part. He's truly an amazing actor who truly learns the characters he plays and becomes those parts. There is a nuance to his skills that I don't see in a lot of actors. I'm happy and thankful we've gotten to enjoy him as Lucas for 3 years and beyond excited to see what he has in store for us in Season 9 (and beyond - hint...hint...Hallmark --- Season 10 Let's Do It Again!).
Chris is an amazing actor! He is definitely Lucas! The guy that plays Nathan also plays Mitch on Heartland, so that was a bit hard to get past. I'm so glad they picked Lucas for Elizabeth!! They make a Beautiful couple! 😍❤
Chris is great as Lucas. The character is layered and is intriguing but absolute gentleman in all he does. He leads with his heart. That's Lucas!!! He was my choice for Elizabeth from their first meeting, and then all their scenes and connection kept solidifying it why etc. He is really embodied the Love is Patient, Love is Kind quote.
I gotta admit, when i first saw Lucas and Abigail said "You wouldn't happen to be the new saloon owner, would you?" and he said "Lucas Bouchard, at your service.", I actually thought "If Elizabeth doesn't snatch this one up, I swear I'll...." Lol.
@@mandiflanary8675I actually followed the story. For me it was the way the story was written that made me decide which guy I wanted Elizabeth with not the actors looks. It was the story and performances from the actors that made me decide Nathan was the right man for Elizabeth. Both Kevin and Chris have done well in their roles, but I feel the way the story was written Nathan was made for Elizabeth! S11 has been awesome! I can't wait for S12! ❤
Oh no, Chris is perfect as Lucas! And I'm sure he'd be sharp in a Mountie uniform! BUT, if Chris played Nathan after all, then Elizabeth wouldn't have chosen him, she still would have chosen whoever ended up playing Lucas, so Chris was perfect as Lucas!
