Breakfast with Scot (Premieres Friday, January 9th)
___________________________________________
Based on the book by Michael Downing (which I have read and loved), Breakfast is a heart-warming story of a Canadian gay couple, Eric (Tom Cavanagh) and Sam (Ben Shenkman) whose perfect life is turned upside-down by the arrival of Scot, a whimsical 11-year old boy that is placed in their custody after the death of his mother who was dating San's ne'er-do-well brother. However, Scot is no ordinary 11-year old boy and his prescence will challenge everything Eric and Sam know about parenting and what it means to be a gay man in the 21st century.
