"I think the greatest thing about ''7th Heaven'' is we allow religion to be a part of the show, but it's not what makes the show", she says. "We don't force religious issues on anybody. You can watch our show and be an Atheist. You can be a Buddhist, Agnostic. You can be anything and watch the show and you can still get something from it". On filming ''7th Heaven's'' second series finale: "It was definitely sad! We love doing it for you (the fans). But if it is (truly) the end, my deepest gratitude to the amazing people I have shared the past 11 years with, and thank you to the fans for giving me the best job in the world!" ^[1]
