Amazon.co.uk Review
Unlike the Brady Bunch, the Camdens of Seventh Heaven aren't a blended family. And unlike the Partridge Family, they aren't a band. They're just a family--a large, if normal family with normal problems and concerns. A little like the Waltons, perhaps, but set in the present day. The parents are Eric (Stephen Collins from All the President's Men), a minister, and Annie (Catherine Hicks from Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home), a homemaker. They live in the suburbs of Glenoak, California, with their five children: 16-year-old Matt (Barry Watson), 14-year-old Mary (Jessica Biel), 12-year-old Lucy (Beverley Mitchell), 9-year-old Simon (David Gallagher), and 5-year-old Ruthie (Mackenzie Rosman). By the end of the pilot ("Anything You Want"), they'll add the dog Happy to their household.

Created by Barbara Hampton (Blossom) and produced by Aaron Spelling (Beverly Hills 90210), Seventh Heaven, it may lack a gimmick, but this heartwarming family drama doesn't lack a theme: communication. And since the Camdens are a minister's family, faith comes up often, as well, which gives the show something in common with such otherwise disparate programs as Touched by an Angel and Joan of Arcadia. Throughout 1996-1997, the Camdens would deal with many tough issues, both internal and external, including teen pregnancy ("Family Secrets"), death ("In the Blink of an Eye"), racism ("The Color of God"), spousal abuse ("What Will People Say"), and alcoholism ("Last Call for Aunt Julie"). In the years to come, the cast would have their own real-life issues with which to contend, such as Watson's battle with cancer (after taking 2003 off to recover, he would return in 2004) and the gradual loss of Biel (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre) to the movies. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Synopsis
The heart-warming television 'dramedy' 7TH HEAVEN blends sometimes-outlandishly comic situations with dramatic plotlines about serious social issues into a positive affirmation of family values and Christian morality. Produced by Aaron Spelling (whose other credits include polar-opposite series MELROSE PLACE and BEVERLY HILLS 90210), 7TH HEAVEN centres on an all-American minister's family headed by Reverend Eric Camden (Stephen Collins) and his stay-at-home wife Annie (Catherine Hicks) as they struggle with the daily stresses and joys of parenting. Meanwhile the Camden's five children--oldest son Matt (Barry Watson), athletic good girl Mary (Jessica Biel), boy-crazy Lucy (Beverley Mitchell), pre-teen Simon (David Gallagher), and precocious schoolgirl Ruthie (Mackenzie Rosman)--navigate through the trials and tribulations of growing up with wholesome aplomb. This collection includes every episode from the show's debut series.

5.0 out of 5 stars An invaluable tv series for the whole family, 9 Jun 2007
I discovered the tv series when I was around 20, so I surely don't belong to the main target audience. Anyway I really fell in love with the series and with the Camden Family because unlike most other tv series, it has something to tell, and it tells it in a very entertaining way.
Surely the stories are usually way over the top (which is probably why some people dislike the series so much), but nevertheless, if you extract the problems and questions the series deals with, you'll find out that they are present in the everyday life. And I'm not only talking about the kid's girl and boy trouble, there are also much deeper themes. The death of a family member, a sister who drinks, racism, prejudice, responsibility... and just like in real life, the Camden Family have to face the fact that there's not always a happy ending, and not every question has an anser.
It's definitly a series for the whole family and one that I surely will watch with my future children.

5.0 out of 5 stars 7th heaven sublime, 26 Oct 2006
By Bj Lucas "saculnamron" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
When I first caught an accidental glimpse of 7th heaven on Hallmark I was intruiged and warmed to it immediately. Of course now I cannot go without my daily fix of heaven. join The camdens the rev eric Camden, His wife annie and their kids, Matt, Mary, lucy, Ruthie and twins Sam and David. Strong storylines, Chracters and personalities ensure there is never a dull moment. Make the Camdens your family too a real treasure of a show.
