7th Heaven is an American teen drama television series, created and produced by Brenda Hampton. The series premiered on Monday August 26, 1996, on the WB, the first time that the network aired Monday night programming, and was originally broadcast from 1996–2007. The series finale was scheduled for May 8, 2006; however, the show was renewed by the CW when the intended final episode received high ratings. The 11th and final season premiered on Monday, September 25, 2006 and ended on May 13, 2007.
7th Heaven is the longest running series that has ever aired on The WB, and was promoted by The WB television network as the longest running family-friendly drama in television history[1] and the longest running show produced by Aaron Spelling. The show tells the story of a Protestant minister's family living in the fictional town of Glen Oak, California.
Premise
The central characters are the Reverend Eric Camden (Stephen Collins), his wife Annie (Catherine Hicks), and their seven children: Matt (Barry Watson), Mary (Jessica Biel), Lucy (Beverley Mitchell), Simon (David Gallagher), Ruthie (Mackenzie Rosman) and the twins, David (Lorenzo Brino) and Sam (Nikolas Brino).
Denomination
Eric is the minister of the Glenoak Community Church, whose Protestant denomination is typically never disclosed. Exceptions to this were an episode that was narrated by Simon in Season 8; in a Season 11 episode in which Annie comments on how Protestants can't have confession; and in Season 6 episode 15 when Matt tells Sarah Glass that his father is Protestant.
In at least one episode, the Disciples of Christ denominational logo (St. Andrew cross and chalice) was displayed prominently on the front of the church's pulpit. Many of the church scenes were filmed at First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) of North Hollywood.[2] Although the logo display was likely unintentional, there appears to be nothing about the Camdens' brand of Christianity that would be negated if they were not a part of the Disciples of Christ. The reason for the display of the Chalice is most likely due to the rental agreement of the church. On the wall hanging left to the pulpit, the church's logo is present (blue logo with a cross/anchor symbol). The church (First Christian Church of North Hollywood), has noted that when the cast was on set, they often went into the church office to observe how church staff really act.[citation needed]
In an earlier online show guide from Warner Brothers Television, the back story for Eric Camden described him as being an Episcopal Priest leading, with his Bishop's permission, a non-denominational church.
The Camden family
The family originally consisted of five children (Matt, Mary, Lucy, Simon, and Ruthie), but in the third season, Annie gave birth to twins, Sam and David.
Three of the young Camdens (Matt, Mary and Simon) moved away from home sometime during the show's run due to real-life circumstances or requests from the cast people that portrayed them. On the show, Simon went to college and Matt married and pursued his career as a doctor far away from the family. Despite these three all being absent from the Camden home at varying points throughout the show, the house is still always full. Lucy never leaves the Camden home during the course of the series (when Lucy marries, she and her husband move into the garage apartment and start to raise their family) while Ruthie left for a short while in the last season to go to Scotland, and the Camdens offer shelters to various houseguests at different points in the show.
Due to a dissatisfaction with the show and the image that was being created for her by portraying Mary Camden, Jessica Biel asked to leave the series and was slowly written out of the show beginning in 2000; after an appearance on an episode in September 2003, did not appear again on the show until the final episode of the tenth season. This is in sharp contrast to Watson and Gallagher, who regularly guested on the show following their characters' departure from the Camden household.
Themes
Each episode deals with a moral lesson or controversial theme that the family handles either directly or indirectly. Some range from the traumatic (e.g., Eric's sister came to visit and the children found out that she was an alcoholic) to the somewhat trivial (e.g., in one episode, every child acquired an addiction, with even Ruthie being addicted to gum). Beyond the moral lesson in each show, there are also longer-running story arcs, such as Eric's difficulty coping with the maturing of the female members of the household. The first episode involved Lucy's (lack of a) period. In the later seasons, Mrs, Camden enters menopause and "baby" Ruthie needs a training bra.
The topics are usually approached from a socially and politically conservative Protestant Christian point of view (devoting almost all of Season 9 to the importance of abstaining from pre-marital sex). However, several pre-marital incidents do occur, including a Season 10 episode where Eric mentions that his parents had to marry because his mother became pregnant with him. Additionally, the episode in which Ruthie disclosed that she lost her virginity while in Europe over the summer (though it was later revealed to be a lie). As a rule, the series generally avoided touching on "hot button" issues (i.e. affirmative action, abortion, and homosexuality). A 2004 episode about the importance of voting on election day seemed to suggest that men in the family were voting for former president George W. Bush, while the women were voting for Massachusetts Senator John Kerry, although the script went out of the way to make sure that no mention of either candidate was ever made directly by name, leaving the viewer to decide and the message of the episode simply being "vote, no matter who you vote for". However, in the same episode in which Matt discloses that the family is Protestant, he also discloses to Sarah that his father is a Democrat.
The show is reliant on the very special episode concept, attempting to introduce contemporary social issues to lend greater emotional resonance to episodes. These episodes do in fact lead to high ratings for the show. The January 24, 2005 episode, which featured the birth of Lucy's daughter Savannah, garnered 7.99 million viewers—the highest WB rating since 2003. Another example included the would-be series finale, now simply known as the Season 10 finale, which scored 7.56 million viewers on May 8, 2006.
Cast and characters
Jessica Biel's departure
Jessica Biel, gradually became dissatisfied with what she thought was her "goody goody" image, eventually posed for semi-nude photographs for Gear magazine. The producers of the show did not approve. During the fifth (2000–2001) season, her character had gone through a rebellious phase, and this storyline was used to write Biel out of the show, sending Mary to her grandparents' house in Buffalo for some tough love to counter her rebellious behavior. During Season 6 (2001–2002), Mary returned home, but the differences between Biel and the producers led to Mary leaving home full time and becoming a flight attendant.
Biel returned for five episodes during Season 7 (2002–2003), including Lucy's wedding episode and the season finale. She then appeared in the second episode of Season 8, when she revealed to the family that she had married Carlos Rivera (Carlos Ponce) whom the Camdens assisted in returning home to his family in the Christmas episode "Here Comes Santa Claus" in Season 3, and was pregnant with his child. After a nearly three-year absence, it was announced that Biel would make a triumphant return for the season finale "And Thank You", reuniting all nine Camdens for the first time since the Season 7 finale "Life and Death".
While she was away, from 2003–2006, Mary had major storylines off-camera, including giving birth to son Charles "Charlie" Miguel Rivera in 2004, and then subsequently divorcing her husband and signing away custody of her child in the May 2005 ninth season finale "Mi Familia". Her on-screen ex-husband, Carlos Ponce, made several appearances during her absence to deliver these stories. Minor stories or tidbits include Mary taking a political stance in Season 9 by sending her husband to the voting booth and attending rallies, sending Lucy a baby shower gift, going through job training in London, relocating to Chicago following her divorce, and most recently, helping Simon in Season 10 with financial difficulties. However, she has clearly maintained a connection with Carlos and Charlie, and up until the divorce was made known, kept in contact with her siblings semi-regularly at least.
Her appearance in the Season 10 finale, though limited, shed light on events taking place during the last few months. Mary graduated from college the same weekend as Matt and Sarah, reunited with husband Carlos, and was pregnant with twin girls. Although she was not with the family, her conversation with her husband during the episode revealed that Mary's reunion with the family would take place during Matt and Sarah's graduation ceremony. All of this brought resolution to the estrangement that had been present since Season 5. In the Season 11 premiere it is revealed that Mary had the twin girls over the summer. She and Carlos also returned to New York for reasons unknown. She became a teacher and a basketball coach at a high school.
Episodes
DVD releases
CBS DVD (distributed by Paramount) is releasing 7th Heaven on DVD. To date they have released ten seasons in Region 1. In the US, Paramount distributed the first two seasons solo (as CBS had not yet taken over Paramount's TV holdings).
Since the third season (region 1) release, seasons have been released every March and November/Early December (except the release of season 6 which was released on June 10th, 2008). The release of the 11th season DVD set is expected by the end of 2010.

Ratings
7th Heaven was the most watched TV series ever on the WB. It holds the record for the WB's most watched hour at 12.5 million viewers, on February 8, 1999; 19 of the WB's 20 most watched hours were from 7th Heaven. On May 8, 2006, it was watched by 7.56 million viewers, the highest rating for the WB since January 2005. When the show moved to the CW, ratings dropped. Possible reasons for the decline include an aired "Countdown to Goodbye" ad campaign for the last six months of the 2005–06 season which promoted that season as the final season ever; though the New CW Network announced the series' unexpected renewal, it didn't promote the new season strongly via billboards, bus stops, magazine or on-air commercials. Lastly, the network moved 7th Heaven to Sunday nights; the returning viewers may have thought the series was removed from the schedule. The show had a season average of just 3.3 million on the new network, losing 36% of the previous year's audience. It was the third most watched scripted show on the CW. Overall, it was the seventh most watched show.

Production
Although originally produced for Fox in 1996, the show aired on the WB. It was produced by Spelling Television, and distributed for syndication by (corporate sibling) CBS Television Distribution. Its producers, including Aaron Spelling, considered it wholesome family viewing, incorporating public service announcements into the show. The final season of 7th Heaven was shown on the inaugural season of The CW. The show wrapped production on the final episode March 8, 2007 about one month before most shows film their last episodes of the season. This was due largely to the fact that after ten years of working together, the actors, producers and crew had gotten production down to a well-oiled machine, slashing costs repeatedly and routinely coming in well under budget. This resulted in 7th Heaven filming episodes in shorter time during the final seasons.
2006 renewal
After much deliberation within the now-defunct WB network, it was made public in November 2005 that the tenth season would be the program's final because of high costs, which were revealed to be due to a poorly-negotiated licensing agreement by the WB network a few years earlier. The program's future was hanging in the balance and it was entirely in the hands of the newly-established CW network whether to renew it for an eleventh seasonal run. In March 2006, the main cast of characters were approached about the possibility of returning for an eleventh season.[14][15]
After further consideration by the CW network, it was decided three days after the airing of its "series finale", that 7th Heaven would be picked up for an eleventh season, which would air on their network in the Monday-night slot that had helped make it famous.[16] Originally the show was renewed for thirteen episodes, but on September 18, 2006 the renewal was extended to a full twenty-two episodes.[17]
Along with the show's unexpected and last-minute, renewal came some changes. The show's already-low budget was moderately trimmed, forcing cuts in the salaries of some cast members and shortened taping schedules (seven days per episode instead of the typical eight). Furthermore, Mackenzie Rosman, who played youngest daughter Ruthie, did not appear in the first six episodes. She had appeared in every episode of the series prior to that. Catherine Hicks missed three episodes in Season 11, as another cost-cutting move. Additionally, for the first time since joining the cast in 2002 as a series regular, George Stults was absent for a few episodes at the beginning of Season 11. Stephen Collins and Beverley Mitchell ended up being the only two cast members to appear in every single episode of 7th Heaven's eleven seasons.
Also, after airing Monday nights at 8/7c for ten seasons, plus the first two episodes of Season 11, the CW unexpectedly moved 7th Heaven to Sunday nights as of October 15, 2006. The Sunday/Monday lineup swap was attributed to mediocre ratings of shows on both nights. While 7th Heaven did improve in numbers over the CW's previous Sunday night programming, it never quite hit its Monday-night momentum again, and the shows that replaced it in its slot on Monday night never matched what it had achieved in that time slot.[18]
Syndication
CBS Television Distribution handles the domestic and international distribution of the series. Although the series was virtually never received a rating above TV-G throughout its 11-season run, reruns on some cable channels have given the series a TV-PG rating, despite a relative lack of suggestive content that might warrant a TV-PG rating.
In the United States, the show began airing reruns in off-network syndication on September 25, 2000 but ceased to air in syndication in September 2002, while the series was still in first-run broadcast on The WB. The show then aired on the ABC Family channel from the fall of 2002 until 2008. It was announced on April 1, 2010 that ABC Family had re-obtained the rights to 7th Heaven, and would begin airing it at 11 a.m. (ET/PT) on weekdays beginning April 12, 2010.[19] However after one week, ABC Family abruptly pulled the show and replaced it with a third daily airing of Gilmore Girls.
It started airing on cable superstation WGN America on September 8, 2008, though it had previously aired on WGN from 2000 to 2002 during its initial off-network syndication run. Incidentally, the series aired in first-run form on WGN from the show's 1996 debut on The WB until 1999, when WGN ceased to carry WB network programming on its national superstation feed (7th Heaven, along with Sister, Sister, The Parent 'Hood and The Wayans Bros. are the only WB series to air in both first-run broadcast and off-network syndication on WGN America).
The series also began airing on Hallmark Channel around the same time as when WGN America began to carry reruns of the series again. Hallmark Channel airings of the series, however, truncate the opening credit sequence removing the majority of the theme song except for the first stanza and the last few seconds of the theme.
