Thanks to KTLA and Pepsi Smash for this interview with Jessica Biel. Interviews From E!'s Special: Inside 7th Heaven:
Mackenzie compares her character to herself:"She likes to dip her nose into things, kinda like me, she's nosey, kinda like me (giggles alittle)".
Jessica describes her character:"Mary has, well she started out like a young kid at 14yrs old, started going through high school, started just kinda rebelling, kind of doing her own thing, having her own opinions, her own mind".
Beverley compares her character to herself:"Well the traits that we have, Lucy and I are very similar, her family values, her morals and um, she's like... her friends mean the world to her, like she would drop anything for any of those people".
David describes his character:"I don't think he is too nice, um, you can never be too nice... but ah, he's just kinda very cautious in a sense".
Beverley on getting her role:"I don't think it was at first, my age and perspeverance, like ya, you gotta see her, see her one more time!, so I went back in and they loved me, and went to many other auditions, then I got the part".
David on getting his role:"It was pretty much like any other deal, it was auditioning, you know they go in, first time there was millions of kids trying out".
David speaks about Stephen:"Stephen Collins out of the entire cast, reached me the most, probably because he's very intelligent, he's very well spoken, you know, he has a great sense of humor, you have a good time and you always learn something".
Catherine speaks about Stephen:"He's very good, yeah... he's very humble. He's new to it, so um, he's been really nice and ofcourse, he's an actor so he works like the actors, he knows the character so well, um, he's just very comfortable".
Catherine talks about Annie:"When I first took the job, I realised that the country is full of Annie Camden's. I'm proud to play Annie".
Stephen speaks about Barry:"Barry makes me laugh, He reminds me of myself at that age".
David speaks about Barry:"He'll just grab me and wrestle me into the ground, like give me a wedgie, or just push me around like a big older brother would".
David talks about his hardest episode:"The biggest episode I had to do, was probably the holocaust episode, the episode had no knowledge of the holocaust, I only heard it, you know, it was just a word to me".
David describes his love for cars:"I love cars, I have a taste on cars, I just appreciate them, they're awesome".
Barry speaks about David's popularity:"He is a hunk on the show, yeah... he's big!".
David talks about his future:"I want to go to college, to do film. Become a director or a producer".
Beverley's take on 7th Heaven:"The thing to me was that it's a dysfunctional family show and it's so rare to find that on television, especially when we started.
Beverley talks more on Lucy:It was just like a great character, she was so fun and suddenly my family could be proud of me".
Beverley talks about her fave episode:"One of our storylines involved the death of a friend, um, and it was that year that when one of my friends died in a car accident, so it was really tough because it was something I was dealing with in real life and it was something I had to straightly show so everyone knew my pain, everyone saw my pain. I just had to let everything go, I had to, you know, let loose and once I started, I think I cried that entire episode and ever since I did it, it's better, it's easier to deal with".
Beverley talks about a pact her mother and her made:"I made a promise with my mom, I made it when I was 4yrs old. We made a pact that if I ever thought I was better than anyone else on the playground, it didn't matter how much money I was making, she'd tell me the truth over again because it was not worth losing your kid to hollywood".
Jessica speaks about singing lessons:"I must've been like 7 and my mom gave me voice lessons before I was babysat and when she couldn't get a babysitter, I use to go with her and I said mom, I want to sing too. So I started taking voice lessons and then, I don't even remember but I just started auditioning for musicals, I just loved it and then I just said 'I want to be on tv'".
Jessica on her work before 7th Heaven:"I had done a few commercials and I had done some modelling and alot of musical theatre that I took part in when I was in Colorado and Conneticut, so 7th Heaven was pretty much my first thing ever".
Jessica tells us about her chance:"'7th Heaven' gave me the chance, you know, I'd never done anything before, I was really green, as you call it and they gave me the chance to really, really become a good actress".
Beverley talks about her relationship with Jessica:"We're very close, we've gone through everything together, I mean, Jesse was there when my friend died, Jesse was there when my parents got divorced, I mean, for every predigament in my life, she's been there for".
Jessica talks about her surfing and her future:"I've surfed alittle bit in California before with a few lessons and then when we were in Bali, they had a surf teacher and just gave us a few pointers and stuff like, alright, get out there and start!. I'd love to do more films, I'd love to go different characters, um, just get to be everything, I love to be everybody, you know, I love to do kinda different personalities, to try that, because you know thats the best part about acting".
Brenda talks about Mackenzie:"She has great timing, you know, you throw her the ball and she runs with it, we love writing for that kid".
Beverley speaks about Mackenzie:"Mack started the show, you know, 6yrs ago, she was this little thing, you know, we had people under her, holding her feet down so she wouldn't move, she never whines, never cries, she just goes up and she does it, she's so professional at a young age".
Mackenzie tells us why she likes interviews:"I love interviews, I love the free stuff!".
Adam speaks about getting his role:"Well before I came on the show, um, I met Jessica Biel, through a movie that we had done, and ah, I came down one time, just to visit and it's like, 'Hi Adam, how are you doing?', you know, they'd look at me like... Adam... thats the boyfriend, kinda like weird at first, just showing up saying 'hi'. I went to college and she called up and said 'they have a role for her boyfriend, would you be interested in doing it?" and I said, you know, 'sure', so things, you know, worked out, they got me on the show as a gues star".
Adam describes his character:"I think my character is pretty cool, you know, he started off as someone who was way off, had girlfriends, pregnancies and all this stuff and he really changed it around, you know, to good and he's turned into a Camden".
Beverley on the show's storylines:"We've dealt with so many morals and issues, everything over the years, um, anything from anorexia to bolimia, to you know, abuse, pregnancies, that stuff".
Adam describes his view of the show:"The shows kinda amazing because in a way, without really preaching, it gets across to America, alot of situations and problems. Problems that I think everyday people face".
Mackenzie describes her one of her episodes:"Something about we had illegal ferrets and we had to give them back, that stunk!".
Jessica talks about her fan mail:"You get fans letters that say 'what the heck is Mary doing!?, she's being crazy, tell her to stop hurting the family and her antics!', you know, I get kinda letters from fans that say 'I think Mary should be with Robbie or Mary should be with Wilson', that kind of thing".
Barry talks about leaving the show:"It's just time to move on, you know, I've moved on from alot of things, growing up in life and just, say I've been working for 6yrs but I'm really excited, it's like, you know, starting a whole new chapter of my life, it's exciting for me, I like that, I like just starting fresh again".
Barry speaks about after 7th Heaven:"You know whats great, is that when this is all over, like I'm going to still talk to these people, still going to have a relationship with these people".
Beverley talks about Catherine and Stephen:"And Stephen and Catherine, I don't even know what to say, their definitly like parents. I see them and they help me with my SAT's, they give me an SAT word everyday on set, um Catherine's always checking up on me, seeing how my school stuff is going, making sure that I'm, you know, sticking with it, it's just strange".
David talks about the crew's bondage:"Like literally, the crew, the cast, you know, everybody, we're one big family, you know and it's always been like that from day one".
Jessica speaks about cast relationships:"There's just like, thousands of memories, you know, thousands of great, great memories and people that I know I'm going to know for the rest of my life".
Mackenzie on cast relationships:"You know what I like best about it, the people. I like the people because everybodys really nice and welcoming, I also like the catering".
Stephen tells us what he'd do with the show:"I would go back to Brenda Hamptons pitch for the show, if she wanted to pitch the show for spelling, her entire pitch was one question, she said 'what if there were a functional family in America?' and I think thats what we represent, it's a long way from 'Leave It To Beaver', if she dealt with more of the stuff we deal with and yet it's still in that mould".

The WB caught up with Beverley Mitchell on college life/tv life - 2001:
Since I went to a college preparatory high school, there was really no question that I would go on to college - even though everyone kept saying, "Oh, you don't need to go to college - you have a great career already!" Sure, I have a job now, but the acting business isn't always that solid, and so I wanted something to fall back upon. I think it's so important to keep learning and keep your brain active. I'm a sophomore now at a small, private university in the Los Angeles area. I lived in the dorms last year, and I can't even tell you how much that experience has given me. Being an only child, I've never really gotten to interact with so many people my own age before.
Actually, the kids at school don't treat me any differently at all just because I'm on television. They don't point fingers or make comments. For the longest time, I was convinced that half the people at school had no idea who I was. I was so excited that people wanted to be friends with me because they thought I was cool - not because I was on TV.
I loved being able to live on campus. I made so many everlasting friendships. I was sort of considered the "mom" of the dorm, because whenever people were upset or not feeling well, they came to me. If I knew someone was sad, I'd go to the grocery store and buy some roses, put them at their door, then knock and run. Living in the dorm was such a fun and rewarding experience because we were all in the same boat. It was like I finally had sisters.
Yet as much as I loved living in the dorms, it was really stressful with my work schedule. I'd get up at 5:30 in the morning in order to be on the set by 6:30. In the dorms, it's obviously harder to sleep because everyone is so nocturnal. So it was really hard to get enough sleep. I was just burning my candle at both ends. Healthwise, I realized I needed to be somewhere where I could sleep without interruption, so this year, I live in my own house. It's not too far from campus. My friends from the dorm still come over, so I still have that same interaction.
Still, it's tough trying to combine my acting career with my college career. I try to do my homework in the wee hours of the night after I get home from work. Last year, I had nine units, which is only one class short of a full-time student. It was so incredibly challenging. Sometimes I would call my mom at midnight and say, "I just can't go on like this; it's too hard." It was my fault for pushing myself to the edge.
For that reason, I'm taking an easier load this semester. Right now, I'm taking a speech class, which is actually a lot of fun. You'd think it would be easy for me since I'm an actress, but it's actually quite different. There's no camera and no script. I basically have to write my own script. My next assignment is to make a sales presentation, so that's what I've been working on lately. Even though college has been hard, I don't want to give up. I think school is important, and it adds another dimension to my life. Plus, it's great getting to interact with kids my own age. I'm only 20 years old, and I need to act like it sometimes. So I go out with my friends, and we go to movies or dances or the occasional frat party. I actually wanted to join a sorority, but it wound up being impossible with my work schedule.
Even so, I still manage to have a lot of fun. This year I was hanging out with my friends in the dorm, and we just started launching water balloons at people. We were running around the building throwing them out different windows and hiding in different corners of the building as if we were snipers. It was fun, but of course we got in so much trouble.
If I had to give one piece of advice to incoming college freshmen, I'd say always be true to yourself. There are so many people who will try to push their opinions on you. The moment you let go of what you believe in, you're letting someone else take over. Be yourself, and if people don't accept you for who you are, then just walk away, because they're not worth it.
The WB also caught up with Beverley on her fashion styles:
Ch-ch-ch-changes: Lucy's style has changed dramatically over the years," says Mitchell. "She used to only wear straight, conservative clothing, most of which came from the children's department. Then she started wearing baggy jeans and T-shirts. Now she's become a lot more trendy, which suits me just fine."
Feelin' Groovy: The wardrobe people on the show never make me wear anything I'm not comfortable with," says the actress. "It's nice to know they're not going to make me wear some hideous outfit."
Body in Motion: To stay in shape, Mitchell works out three times a week with a trainer and tries her best to stay away from all the on-set munchies. "Some days it's so tempting. It's like those doughnuts are calling to me."
Worse for Wear: I seriously hope big flannels with baggy pants never, ever return as a fashion trend," says Mitchell. "Back in seventh grade I was this tiny 75-pound nothing of a girl wearing these huge baggy pants and a big flannel top. I might as well have been invisible."
The WB caught up with David Gallagher - 2001:
The WB:If you could give Simon advice on life, where would you start?
The WB:Is your real-life family like your TV family?
The WB:Do you like having so many brothers and sisters?
The WB:Do your parents cut you any slack at home because you're a star?
The WB:Is it intimidating to be considered a heartthrob?
The WB:Do your friends give you a hard time about seeing you in teen magazines and things like that?
The WB:So was passing the driving test a big deal?
The WB:Are your parents paranoid about letting you drive on your own?
The WB:Do you ever miss the normal life and things like football games or school dances?
The WB:What about college? Do you plan on going while you're still on the show?
The WB:So what sort of things do you like to do to unwind?
The WB:What would you like to see happen for Simon in the future?
