50 free 7th Heaven trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
7th Heaven ran for eleven seasons from 1996 to 2007 and remains the longest-running series The WB ever aired. This quiz covers the whole Camden saga: Reverend Eric and Annie, the seven kids and their many boyfriends and girlfriends, Happy the dog, the Kinkirk brothers, Martin Brewer, the twins born in the network's most-watched hour, and the guest stars who came and went from Glenoak. Easy questions ask what Eric does for a living, who played Mary and what Simon prayed for in the pilot. Harder ones dig into who the twins were named after, why Lucy's actress originally auditioned, which magazine shoot got Jessica Biel in trouble with the producers, and which cast members went on to Star Trek films, Kingdom Hearts and Teen Wolf. Every answer has been checked against the Wikipedia articles on the series, its characters and its cast, and each question shows its source once you have answered.
