I thought there’d come a day where children of gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgendered families would have their own children’s programming. I had thought mainstream television shows would do it first, but ever since PBS balked at a little criticism about featuring a GLBT family on its show Postcards from Buster, children’s programming and television networks have conveniently avoided an entire population of children. It’s all politics really and the fear of a public outcry at something still deemed vile by ignorant individuals who are still stuck in the dark ages.
I could go into my views of GLBT rights, religion and a host of other hot topics, but that would derail me from my intended purpose in posting a review for the new children’s television show, Buddy G: My Two Moms and Me. Buddy G is the first animated character that I know of who has two moms. The number of programs for GLBT families is growing as independent companies start developing their own shows in lieu of the commercial, non-conforming networks out there.
Yes, Buddy G: My Two Moms and Me is geared towards GLBT families, but kids with moms and dads and those in other living situations can relate to the adventures Buddy G goes on with his best friend, Owen, and his special computer, Socrates. While Buddy G: My Two Moms and Me might be called “My Two Moms and Me”, Buddy G is a universal kid who experiences life just like any other kid, except for the fact that he has two moms.
