Star of First Show for Gay and Lesbian Families Sets Sail on R Family Vacations Cruise

“Dottie” of Dottie’s Magic Pockets to Appear on R Family Vacations Spring Cruise LOS ANGELES, December 5, 2007 – Production company Pink Pea announced that the star of Dottie’s Magic Pockets - the first children’s program for kids in gay and lesbian families – will appear on the R Family Vacations Cruise to the Mexican Riviera, March 15-22, 2008.

(Dottie's opening credits )

Dottie is a wacky and playful woman whose house seems suddenly empty when her partner, May, leaves to take their son, Ollie, for his first day of school. To cheer up his mom, Ollie gives her a gift: a sweater with huge, dotted pockets.

When Dottie reaches into the sweater's pockets, she pulls out handfuls of magic glitter! She sprinkles the glitter around and -- voila! -- her living room is transformed into a zany funhouse filled with a gaggle of new friends to keep her company during the day, including: James the Flower, Randal the Beaver, Motilda the Mouse, Uncanny the Singing Can, and Wally the Wall.

Excitable, sweet, and silly, Dottie is also a patient and devoted mom and friend who enjoys playing with her magical playmates as she helps them solve their problems.

(The "doing the flower" song from Dottie's first DVD)

Tammy Stoner is CEO of Pink Pea, the company that created Dottie's Magic Pockets. Her own son was the inspiration for the show -- Stoner raises him with the help of her ex-partner, Beth.

TAMMY STONER: By about 2-and-a-half, we'd say "Well, Mom and Momma and Oliver are going out" or whatever, and he would actually replace one of our names with Dad. He had started asking for videos of two mommies -- and after I did hours and hours of research on the Internet, I realized there literally was no programming available for him at that time.

There are roughly two million American households with same-sex parents. That number grows every year as gay families choose to raise children. You'd think that companies would be salivating at the thought of a clearly defined, growing market, but they're not.

JERRY MCHUGH: It's a market that has hardly been touched.
Jerry McHugh is senior research director for Community Marketing, a consulting group for gays and lesbians. He says gay men have been on marketers' radars for years. But lesbians haven't, and most gay parents are women. The median income of those families who have children is about $80,000. They have some money to spend, it's a well educated group of people, they're looking for products that speak to them in identifying their own unique characteristics.

If business hasn't paid much attention to same-sex-headed families, the media seems to have actively avoided them. Sure, there's plenty of gay-friendly programming out there, like Queer Eye for the Straight Guy and Will and Grace.

But in 2005, when PBS tried to air a show that included a family with two moms, activists forced PBS to pull the episode. Pink Pea's Tammy Stoner recognizes that gay parenting is still a sensitive issue. She's only selling DVDs of Dottie's Magic Pockets over the Web, and she's not pitching to the networks -- yet.

We wish Tammy Stoner much success in getting this program widely distributed. If you have lesbian friends raising young children please consider these dvd's as educational and entertaining gifts.

Out at The Wedding - Movie Preview

This feature film is a romantic comedy cocktail with a splash of southern comfort and a twist. The film is directed by award-winning director Lee Friedlander and written by
Paula Goldberg. Principal cast includes: Andrea Marcellus, Desi Lydic, Charlie Schlatter, Mike Farrell, Mink Stole, Reginald VelJohnson, Cathy DeBuono and Mystro Clark.

Transplanted Southerner, Alex Houston (Andrea Marcellus), has found life as a successful wine importer in Manhattan to be a pretty fabulous life. Laughs come in spades from her best gay pal since childhood, Jonathan (Charlie Schlatter) and love is found in the package of Dana (Mystro Clark), a dreamy bi-racial airline pilot. When he unexpectedly proposes to her the day she’s to leave town for her sister’s wedding, life gets complicated. Having assumed her southern family would never accept her ethnic boyfriend, she’s never told them he exists. In turn, she’s led Dana to believe her entire family is dead. Now, don’t judge her too harshly, it was sort of a mix up that turned into genocide. Making an excuse to leave town, she takes Jonathan as her date to the wedding and figures once she gets through the weekend, she’ll come clean to everyone.

Once back in South Carolina, it’s a minefield of emotion as she deals with her distant father (Mike Farrell), her overly exuberant sister Jeannie (Desi Lydic) and all the relatives and friends of her past who can’t believe she’s still single. Especially curious is Alex’s dim high school sweetheart who misunderstands a conversation with Jonathan and starts spreading a rumor at the reception that she’s gay. When an inebriated Alex gives a thinly veiled speech about her interracial relationship at the wedding, everyone mistakenly thinks it’s a big coming out speech. After unsuccessfully trying to set everyone straight so to speak, her right wing family has a decidedly left wing response and the lie actually brings them all closer.

As the two sisters build a relationship they’ve never been able to cultivate before, Alex can’t bring herself to fess up she’s straight. When Jeannie comes back from her honeymoon and wants to come to New York and meet Alex’s lesbian love “Dana,” Jonathan comes up with an idea to “hire” a girlfriend. That’s when things really start to get complicated!
Out At The Wedding is about relationships. It’s about the thin line between trust and truth and the incredible comic lengths we go to avoid both. But essentially the film is a love story between two sisters, who desperately want to be friends, but only know how to be family.

Movie Review - The Gymnast

When life turns upside down. Look up.

A film about hanging on... and letting go.

The two leading stars (Dreya Weber and Addie Yungmee) are aerial artists, who find an unexpected attraction within the fabric of the art. Beautifully directed and very well written. Believable and fun to watch these two make it look easy because "its what they do". A story of self realization, on more than one level and finding your own happiness...with a few twists.

New to ABC, Cashmere Mafia - Coming in January

Four ambitious, sexy women who have been best friends since business school, Mia, Zoe, Juliet and Caitlin, try to have it all. They aren't just powerful and intelligent as singular executive sensations in a man's world; they've bonded into a formidable unit  A female "boys' club" -- to support and counsel each other through good times and bad. How better to climb up the corporate ladder than with your buddies at your side? Set in glamorous New York City, where titans of media, finance, advertising and publishing reside, these driven women, who daily share their relatable and relevant problems dealing with both the boardroom and bedroom, combine their smarts, wit and humor to deal with personal and professional misfortunes and stunning triumphs. Whether it's coping with rocky marriages, fending off scheming colleagues or just trying to find themselves in the midst of chaotic lives, these compelling women use their valuable friendship to keep centered.


Ever since Mia Mason (Lucy Liu) was a young girl, all she ever wanted to do was win. Now as a sexy, competitive woman in the publishing field, that drive to be first has intensified, even pitting her against her fiancé for a key position. What price will she have to pay to stay on top of the mountain?


Zoe Burden (Frances O'Connor), an investment banker with a handsome, loving, work-at-home architect husband, Eric (Julian Ovenden), and two small children, seems to be the prototype for the woman who has it all. The couple face their 24-7 waltz of balancing full-time work and the challenge of being good parents with good humor, but the wheels may be coming off the cart, forcing Zoe to re-evaluate her life.


For Juliet Draper (Miranda Otto), the Chief Operating Officer of a major hotel chain, appearances come first -- no matter what's going on behind closed doors. And she will have to work overtime to keep up the façade of a perfect life with her philandering husband, Davis (Peter Hermann), and her rebellious 14-year-old daughter. Juliet decides on a unique method of payback for Davis' indiscretions and simultaneously, in a bold move, must decide to drop her public image to step out in the world.


Caitlin Dowd (Bonnie Somerville) is a top marketing executive for a cosmetics firm. Like the other women, she is excelling professionally, but she's still discovering who she is personally and sexually. She's worked hard to get ahead, but still counts on her street smarts to keep her there, while her sense of humor and a sweet wackiness makes her all the more attractive. In the pilot, Somerville's character, Caitlin Dowd, a cosmetics industry VP (pictured above on the far left), unexpectedly finds herself falling for — and getting involved with — another woman at work.

In the pilot, Caitlin finds herself inexplicably attracted to a woman she hires named Alicia, who is described as "37, British, with a striking physical beauty made all the more appealing by a disarmingly scattered, un-self-conscious air. Men want to be with her, women want to be like her." (No word yet on who has been cast in this role.) Caitlin finds herself flustered and nervous whenever she's around Alicia, from the very first time she interviews her, and working with her becomes increasingly difficult. Caitlin eventually brings it up with her three best friends over lunch, telling them, "It's like someone waved a wand and the sun came out and my libido made a surprise guest appearance, and I wanted to book a week in Paris right then and there." But Caitlin can't quite bring herself to tell her friends she's talking about a woman, so she lets them assume she has a crush on a male co-worker.

It will be great to see how this character deals with discovering her sexuality and further how the character develops as the relationship blooms with her co-worker. Can't wait!

Artificial Intelligence," "Mansfield Park") as Zoe, Miranda Otto ("Lord of the Rings" trilogy, "The Starter Wife") as Juliet, Bonnie Somerville ("NYPD Blue," "Kitchen Confidential") as Caitlin, Peter Hermann ("Law & Order: SVU," "United 93") as Davis and Julian Ovenden ("Related," "Butley" on Broadway) as Eric.
