7th Heaven

We definitely all still talk about this particularly sentimental WB drama about the large family of a pastor, but not always for good reasons. On the one hand, it definitely influenced the development of a similar subgenre of weepy dramas with heavily religious overtones (today mostly found on smaller cable networks), but on the other hand, its melodrama and "very special episodes" have made it something of a punchline these days. Still, it's impossible to ignore how long it stayed on the air, not to mention launching several careers, including Jessica Biel's!
