This show infuriates me and amuses me at the same time. First, the "Infuriates" part:
These people are the biggest wusses of all time! Anyone who appears on the show is an absolute dork, even the people who are "bad influences" aren't bad enough to earn respect. For example, the Mary, the "rebel" girl, befriends some coworkers at a pizzaria, and you know what these terrible people do? They >>!!! Oh my god! Perish the thought! And it gets even worse! Sometimes they >>!!! I'm shocked that Mary has even heard of beer or cigarettes. Of course, Mary was quickly forbidden from any social contact with these deviants once the parents found out about such evil-doing. The parents are so overprotective of their kids that it's sickening. And the kids (with the exception of Mary) play right along, do their chores, do their homework, brush their teeth, all while sporting an ear-to-ear grin. Even sibling rivalries are toned down to an absolute minimum. And at the end, the cute little girl always seems to utter some moral of the story that's designed to make you say, "Awwww". That kid annoys me the most of all.
Now on to the "amuses" part: This show is an extremely unrealistic portrayal on an "ideal" American family, and you can either let that anger you, or you can learn to enjoy that fact, and just laugh at all the characters cause they're all such dolts. I watch the show maybe once every couple of weeks, and view it as slapstick comedy. It's actually pretty funny in that respect. You get to watch how the Camdens deal with their "problems", and then wonder what they'd do if they were ever faced with any REAL problems. My sister shares my opinion of the show, whenever it's on, we'll say something to the effect of, "7th Heaven is on, are you ready to learn your morals?"
If everyone in America viewed "7th Heaven" and lived exactly how the show taught them to live, we'd be taken over by Iraq inside of ten years.
