'Buddy G' selected for San Francisco International LGBT Film Festival

SAN FRANCISCO--(Business Wire)--
The Omaha-based mom and mom production company, Us2, has announced
that the first episode of Buddy G, My Two Moms and Me has been
selected for this year's San Francisco International LGBT Film
Festival, Frameline32.

Buddy G is the first animated series to star a child with two
moms. In addition, the show touches on the educational bench marks for
science through Buddy G's interactive armband computer, Socrates.
Buddy G sets the new standard in family programming in which families
of all shapes and sizes are woven into the mainstream fabric.

"We wanted our son to see families like his represented in an
educational- based cartoon. Since nothing was available, we created
one for him and all the other children with LGBT parents," according
to Executive Producer Margaux Towne-Colley.

Buddy G-TV is in the process of securing a private investment that
will allow the franchise to extend beyond this episode.

"The beauty of Buddy G is we could substitute any character or
even cast of characters into the series and the content would not have
to change at all," said Towne-Colley. "Take Buddy G and his moms out
of the series and substitute the families from Dora, Little Bill, or
Caillou, and the dialogue and storylines could stay the same. Bottom
line is that the show isn't about the gay agenda."

Buddy G reflects reality, and most - if not all - children will
meet another child with gay parents, and there needs to be a vehicle
for extending the lexicon to include this situation, said
Towne-Colley.

Film festivals like Frameline strengthen the diverse lesbian, gay,
bisexual and transgender community and further its visibility by
showing that our community transcends stereotypes of who we are or who
we should be.

Buddy G will be part of Frameline's kids' matine at the Castro
Theatre on June 22, at 10:30 a.m., and free for anyone 12 and
under. With more and more families, strollers and babies rolling
through the streets of the Castro District and the gay community in
general, it should be a big hit.
