There Was a Musical Episode
Unless you are an ardent fan and watcher of the show, you probably aren’t aware that there was a musical episode! Buffy the Vampire Slayer changed the way we view musical episodes of television, and 7th Heaven jumped on the bandwagon. The 15th episode of the show’s ninth season was entitled “Red Socks,” and was the show’s foray into musical.
Many regard it to be one of the worst musical episodes in television history. And, we’ll level with you, it’s pretty cringe-worthy! Making a musical episode of TV generally requires you to have actors and actresses who can sing and dance. The problem in the case of 7th Heaven is that many of them couldn’t! Sidebar – you may not know that this episode was actually written by Martha Plimpton!
