Seven Brides for Seven Brothers

By teriboo

Seven Brides for Seven Brothers aired in the early Awesome80s on CBS. Unfortunately, it only lasted one season. I believe if it had been given a chance, it would have caught on. It was a great family show which showed all the trials and tribulations of a family of seven young men (approx. ages 12-25) growing up without parents. The parents had died years before and it was up to the eldest McFadden brother Adam to keep the family and their ranch from falling apart.

Adam came home one day (this was in the pilot episode) and brought home a wife, Hannah. None of the other siblings had known Adam was seeing anyone so they were shocked that he had gotten married without telling them anything. Some of the siblings gave her a hard time at first. Hannah was not aware when she married Adam that the entire McFadden clan lived under the same roof. A ranch located and filmed on location up North in Murphy's California.

Eventually Hannah pretty much set them straight and they all grew to love her as part of their close family.

The show aired approximately 24 episodes in all.

"I loved this show. I thought it was great how all the brothers' names were in order alphabetically (A-G if I remember correctly and then with Hannah it was A-H!). I also remember that this show was pre-empted alot much to my dismay. I agree, had this show been given a chance I think it would have been a hit. When it was on this was my favorite show." --Munchkin
