The millennial edition of TV's longest-running family drama gets off to a stressful start when Eric Camden (Stephen Collins) has a heart attack. It turns out to be a mild one, but sets the tone for much of the season. From now on, the minister and father of seven is going to try to take things easier. Suffice to say, the new touchy-feely dad drives the other Camdens crazy, but they do their best to support his recovery. Meanwhile, college sophomore Matt (Barry Watson) finally flies the coop and gets an apartment with family friend John (Chaz Lamar Shepherd, who becomes a regular cast member) and continues to see girlfriend Shana (Maureen Flannigan). Other developments include a spiky 'do for 13-year-old Simon (David Gallagher), community service for Mary (Jessica Biel) due to vandalism ("Sin and Expiation"), and a disappointing diagnosis for Annie's father ("Forget Me Not"). That leaves Lucy (Beverley Mitchell), who decides what to do with her life, Ruthie (Mackenzie Rosman), who gets her first boyfriend, and the twins (Myrinda and Zachary Brino), who celebrate birthday number one. The show also widens its scope to tackle concerns outside the home, like the treatment of women in Afghanistan ("Yak Sada") and the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II ("Dirty Laundry").

As with previous years, season four ends with some surprises. In this case, Matt and Mary make crucial decisions about their futures. Eric and Annie (Catherine Hicks) are particularly upset by Mary’s choice, so much so that touchy-feely dad (briefly) becomes furious dad. Guest stars include Soul Food's Irma P. Hall ("All by Myself"), Moonlighting's Allyce Beasley ("Liar, Liar"), and 'N Sync's Lance Bass ("Who Do You Trust"). --Kathleen C. Fennessy

5.0 out of 5 stars A TV season and series to treasure, April 19, 2007

By	Stephen H. Wood "Film scholar and vintage mov... (South San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Season four (1999-2000) of the very popular family drama 7TH HEAVEN may be the finest of the first four (of eleven!) seasons in terms of sharp writing and superb acting by everyone. Here are some of the highlights:

EPISODES 1-4: Starting a new school year and making friends. Matt wants to move out, Eric has a heart attack, Aunt Julie is pregnant. Dramatic episode about the treatment of Afghanistan women. Lucy gets her driver's license.

EPISODE 5--A doozey. Teen pregnancy with a stand-up and cheer finale, marijuana possession, and cheating on a key high school exam.

EPISODE 6--A very pregnant Aunt Julie wants a divorce from doctor husband Hank, but changes her mind when both of them gaze on their new-born baby.

EPISODES 7 and 8--The basketball coach locks the gym from low-grade Mary and her teammates, who retaliate with vandalism and get arrested. Simon is caught giving someone "the finger" as a joke in front of Mom and the school principal.

EPISODES 9-12--A woman interned during WW2 wants to make a large contribution to the church and debates seeing a fellow internee. Simon's group sniffs paint thinner fumes. Annie's father may have Alzheimer's, while Matt mopes over Shawna being at NYU across the country. Annie goes to a beach cottage for a weekend's solace.

EPISODES 13-16--Two cute girls have dinner with Matt and his roommate John. Eric spies on Mary, who is on a double movie date with Lucy. Names can hurt. A child is harrassed for having Tourette's. Romantic Valentine's Day show. Eric tries to track down an abused boy who wants a prayer request.

EPISODES 17-18--Eric is on jury duty with a bunch of racists; Ruthie realizes that actions have consequences; Matt drives his roommate nuts in not being able to decide whether to see Shawna in Manhattan.

EPISODES 19-22--Eric counsels a troubled young girl, while Hank keeps a secret from wife Julie; all five Camden kids (excluding the twins) are caught in adolescent love triangles.

Starring are a never-better Stephen Collins as minister father Eric, Catherine Hicks as his wife Annie, Jessica Biel as Mary, Barry Watson as Matt, David Gallagher as Simon, Beverley Mitchell as Lucy, and Mackenzie Rosman as Ruthie. Guest starring are Maureen Flannigan as Shawna, Deborah Raffin as Julie, and Ed Begley Jr. as Hank. How did I survive these memorable and sometimes harrowing adolescent years intact?
Great parents.

As a footnote, let me add that this boxed set claims to have edited episodes and changed music. I was timing the episodes like a hawk and watching for cuts. All 22 of them seem fully intact, and the opening and closing music is all there, so Paramount Home Video must have done a very good editing job. Or just put on the disclaimer for legal reasons. There are a lot of social activist issues here; maybe some (800) phone number epilogues have been trimmed because they are no longer valid. In any event, this season four set of 7TH HEAVEN is a treasure to cherish over and over as we wait for season five on DVD.
