It's not a Christian show ... it's a show about Christians. This show isn't meant to preach to people. It's meant to show that even Christians have ups and downs. I loved watching it growing up and have rewatched some of it on Hulu

I wanted to like this show, after all, I'm a conservative who loves old fashioned shows like little house, the waltons, etc... The first season was OK, kinda lame at times though, like a little too brady bunch for me. But as i got into the second season, i was like, what kind of conservative family is this? Talking about "the universe" like new age stuff. The universe was created by god, the universe itself is not god!! Then the middle daughter meditating with her fingertips together. Then the episodes were starting to get preachy, not preachy as in religion, but preachy as in leftist politics.... Ummm isn't this supposed to be a conservative right-wing show??? It was like a bait and switch, or a mockery or something, but even though i had all the dvds, i stopped watching them... I don't need to be mocked, i get enough of that in real life!!! No thank you!!! Im mad that it was presented as a conservative Christian show! If i had kids, i would've let my kids watch this show thinking it was supportive of my views, but in fact, its Christian bashing!!! Junk!!

This show is ridiculous. A minister who is against lying yet lies to people in just about every episode, as does his wife, his children and all their friends. No one is perfect but the level of lying in this family is beyond insane. The men in this show cower before their wives & girlfriends, it is pathetic to watch. They start the show off as if the kids are intelligent & insightful, then as time goes on they literally become complete morons whose only purpose seems to be to gratify their immediate wants. Watching the reruns this last couple months and finally at the last season, I think the last straw was when Ruthie attempted to read a Bible and was totally clueless on how to read it or what anything in it meant at age 16. I have never met a minister who did not teach their kids about the Bible. So here we have a so called man of God who never even bothered to teach his children about God's word. And as time goes on the writers decided to turn Lucy into a blathering angry attacking lunatic while her husband cowers before her doing her bidding, like all the other women in this show. I have to question how someone like that could possibly call themselves a minister. Nothing in this show makes sense, they jump from one thing to another and the only consistent things are the lying, the lack of manners (not one person knows how to say goodbye when talking on the phone, they just hang up which I found very weird). All the time preaching about a Godly life while they go about lying, sneaking around, fighting over the most trivial things. There is no consistency in their characters. Nothing is believable. What a mess!

7th Heaven was and forever will be one of the greatest inspirational TV Series of the 90's of all-time. Despite the negative reviews, 7th Heaven was a inspirational and beautiful family show with a beautiful cast and characters. It was very uplifting and had emotional moments, but throughout the entire series it was very touching. Thanks to creator Brenda Hampton.The entire cast was terrific including David Gallagher he did awesome. We all enjoyed watching 7th Heaven for a long time and it was a joy. Beautiful story-lines and the show itself was moving. I wish it would've continued on and never ended. It was an excellent show. If they were to bring it back I wouldn't miss it for the world. I recommend 7th Heaven to all families, it will forever uplift you.
