Breakfast with Scot
Breakfast with Scot
BREAKFAST WITH SCOT is a contemporary comedy about the challenges presented by an effeminate 11-year-old boy when a gay couple becomes his temporary guardian. Eric (Tom Cavanagh, of TV’s Ed) lives for all things hockey. Now in his thirties, he’s managed to turn his stint as a professional hockey player with the Toronto Maple Leafs into a full-time gig as a sports TV commentator. But when Eric’s boyfriend Sam (Ben Shenkman, Louis in HBO’s Angels in America) announces that they’re to become temporary guardians of a young boy, Eric’s comfortable world shatters. Enter Scot (Noah Bernett), a recently orphaned, budding queen of an 11-year-old, and Eric’s mirror opposite. Freaked out by Scot’s ‘joie de vivre,’ Eric and Sam gently nudge Scot away from scented hand cream and all things pink, towards a more ‘acceptable’ pastime, hockey. But after Scot’s disastrous first game, Eric begins to rethink the compromises he’s made in his own life in order to be accepted.
“Breakfast With Scot is not only amusing and heartfelt, but also genuinely thoughtful about life's many unexpected turns.” (Peter Howell, Toronto Star)
“While Breakfast With Scot delivers the requisite humour -- not to mention some old-fashioned Christmas magic -- it stands apart for its hearty helping of food for thought.” (Jennie Punter, Toronto Globe and Mail)
