Hallmark’s new show Ride will premiere at the end of March. Set on a ranch in the Rockies, the series stars Nancy Travis as the matriarch of a multigenerational rodeo dynasty.

The show is the second new series Hallmark has introduced this year. The Way Home premiered on January 15.

In a trailer released by the network, Nancy Travis’s character, Isabel McMurray, narrates several shots of the family’s ranch and rodeo.

“This ranch, this family — I’ve learned you can’t take anything for granted,” she says.

The series follows Isabel and her three sons — Austin, Cash, and Tuff (no, seriously, that’s his name) — as they attempt to keep the ranch they own from being bought out by greedy developers. The family is joined in their struggle by former rodeo queen Missy (played by Tiera Skovbye) and ranch-hand-turned-family-member Valeria Galindo (played by Sara Garcia).

In the trailer, it becomes clear that Cash (played by Beau Mirchoff) wants to compete as a bull rider to raise money. But Isabel knows how dangerous this is and doesn’t want him to risk his life.

Where was the show filmed?

The series was shot on location in Calgary, Alberta. (Coincidentally, the CBC series Heartland — a show Ride has been compared to — is also filmed on a ranch in Alberta.)

In a video promoting the show, cast member Jake Foy talked about the authenticity of the series.

“Part of the magic of the show is that we shoot everything practically,” said Foy, who plays Tuff McMurray. “We’re really on a ranch in the Rockies. We’re really in the ring with bulls and bull fighters.”
