Synopsis:
When most people think about an Aaron Spelling show, they think of beautiful people, upscale settings, backstabbing and....sex. Ten years ago, when 7th Heaven first hit the air, I didn't realize it was a Spelling production. This heart-warming family drama realistically portrays the family of a minister (portrayed by Stephen Collins). Seven kids, two grandchildren (one not seen on the show) and the family dog, living under one roof, insure that life is never dull at the Camden household.
7th Heaven never centers around one single character -- they all have their own set of problems. From vandalism and fatal car accidents to unexpected pregnancies and alcoholism, this show tackles tough issues head on, never taking the easy way out. They follow through on these issues and demonstrate to the audience the consequences of each and every single action.
