Adios Fair Camdens!

Well, after 10 years of making us laugh, cry, and wish we were part of their loving, yet religious, family, 7th Heaven is off the air. The Camdens signed off at 9pm tonight in yet another disappointing show.

You know I love the Camdens and they quickly replaced the Partridges as my most favorite TV family. They were awesome. I loved little Ruthie's smartypants attitude, and genuine concern for humanity. The Bank of Simon. Matt's Sean Cassidy hair. Mary's crazy antics. Annie and Eric's beautiful relationship and outpouring of love and support for even those fans living vicariously through their television sets every week (or day as the case may be). I have never been a huge Lucy fan because she was a whiner from day one. The addition of the twins brought the sharks up from their underwater lair.

How could we not love the various homeless people they took in - Robbie. Martin. Carlos. That kid whose dad was in Iraq. Never would we take in such people. Never were homeless people so well kempt and privileged and well adjusted as they are in Camdenville. And still the sharks circled. Sure they followed Mary as she left the Camdens to live with the Kernel (can't seem to spell it the real way) in upstate new york. Followed Mary's blood as she attempted bad movie after bad movie.

The sharks continued to chomp as we watched Ruthie - who had such babydyke potential - blossom into an annoying coquetish teen. The bank of Simon got an STD and almost got a million people pregnant - see what failing to abstain can do to you - and thought he would be the successful camden child in the movie biz. But alas, those damn sharks. Matt was just Matt but always knew where he belonged despite the failed movies he still came back. The sharks loved Lucy, as she went from annoying to more annoying to even more annoying still. The twins - yuck - were just chum.

Its a good thing the show ended. Really it is. Annie and Eric carried their family as long as they could. Not even Spelling could keep this show afloat and the bloodbath was just too dark and deep.

The Camdens have already been replaced. Easy come, easy go. I have been secretly tapped by the Jolie-Pitt family - something about joining as a love slave to the Mrs. I'm just waiting for my ticket to Dafur!
