Title: A feel good treat
Review: This programme is hardly cutting edge, but if you're looking for a temporary escape into a rose tinted feel-good world, this could be just the ticket. You do need to rise above the obvious propaganda, as each episode contains a moral about one of the many vices inflicting teenage America. However, for viewers of the later series on US tv, these messages are less obvious in the earlier seasons. Although billed as family entertainment, I'm not sure there are too many male fans over the age of 12 out there. This is a programme that cynics will hate and indeed find uncomfortable to watch. There is a gentle sweetness to 7th Heaven which is rarely seen in modern programming, a certain nostalgic value. The performances from the lead actors are believable and endearing.
