7 th
Heaven
From Spelling Television comes 7th Heaven, a
contemporary family drama about a minister and his wife sharing love, laughter
and life with their seven children. The WB's highest-rated series is celebrating its remarkable
10th season this winter, 7th
Heaven has been praised for providing high-quality entertainment geared
toward the entire family, being named one of the most family-friendly shows on
network television by the Parents Television Council.
Now in its tenth season, the series stars Emmy Award-nominated Stephen
Collins (The Two Mrs. Grenvilles, The First Wives Club, Sisters),
Catherine Hicks
(Peggy Sue Got Married, Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home),
Barry Watson (Teaching Mrs. Tingle, Shearer's Breakfast), David Gallagher
(Phenomenon), Jessica Biel (Summer Catch, Ulee's Gold), Beverley
Mitchell (Phenom) and Mackenzie Rosman.
The Camdens are a surprisingly functional family, enjoying close
relationships despite their occasional
differences and the usual problems that
every large family faces. Eric (Collins) is a progressive father, who just
happens to be a minister at the local church. Raising seven children leaves Eric
and his wife Annie (Hicks) little time for themselves, but they still manage to
keep their romance alive. Together, they're ready to face any challenge that
comes their way on the roller coaster ride known as "parenting."
Chronicling the many complex issues of growing up in the world today, the
teens on 7th Heaven, Matt (Watson),
Mary (Biel), Lucy (Mitchell) and
Simon (Gallagher), are exposed to issues ranging from dating crises to teen
suicide, sibling rivalry to gang violence. In past seasons, storylines touched
on such poignant topics as the Holocaust, hate crimes, drug use, vandalism,
drinking and driving, teen pregnancy and homelessness.
7th Heaven is created by Brenda Hampton who also serves as executive
producer along with Aaron Spelling and E. Duke Vincent. Spelling and Vincent are
also executive producers of The WB's Charmed.
