Seven Brides for Seven Brothers

Episode Overview

California's mother lode country provides the backdrop for a series about a contemporary family of ranchers. Taking time out for music and dance like 1954 MGM musical, the opener tells how a spirited cafe waitress learns-after the fact-that she has married into a parentless but self-sufficient brood of six rowdy brothers. After her intial shock has passed, Hannah turns her attention to taming the rough and tumble McFadden brood. It's almost impossible, though,when the brothers discover that their prize bull has been killed. The furious young men suspect Wheeler, a nearby ranch owner who would stop at nothing to force the McFaddens into selling their land. Knowing that the brothers want revenge, Hannah comes up with a plan to win one of Wheeler's prize bulls for themselves.
