Forgotten actors in this who played the familiar DS characters

The actors in the '90 or '91 remake hardly got remembered for playing the original characters in new form. These actors here really hardly had a chance. Nearly 20 years old now is this!!!

I grew up during the era of - and daily eagerly followed, after school - the daytime soap original, then later watched all or most of the shortlived '80s network primetime remake (which was pretty good), but never heard of The WB's version. I'm guessing not even its pilot was ever broadcast.

Too bad there isn't a better 'print'. It was screened four times at various festivals, so there must be a better version somewhere?

That would have been nice to include, as a bonus feature, on one or more of the DVDs sets (of which I have multiple [I believe Volumes 1 through 4]) of the original daytime soap.

Early 90s remake not late 80s.

7th Heaven was actually good to almost very good as beauty Catherine Hicks had a lot to do in it. Never got into Dawson's Creek.

I also like 'Seventh Heaven' for beingabout the Bible as the Binle has amazing scientific truth showing it is God's word ( like round Earth and jet streams) see my postings. God did great making beauty Catherine Hicks.
