Michael Downing

Michael Downing, Tout CEO, explains how his company helps businesses visually connect with customers.

Adapted from the novel by Michael Downing, Eric (Tom Cavanagh of the hit series ED, Scrubs, Eli Stone ) lives for all things hockey. Now in his thirties, he s managed to turn his stint as an ex- Toronto Maple Leaf into a full-time gig as commentator for sports TV. He s living the dream! But when Eric s boyfriend Sam (Ben Shenkman of Angels in America Law & Order, Canterbury s Law ) announces that they re to become temporary guardians of a young boy, Eric s comfortable world shatters. Enter Scot (Noah Bernett, Prom Wars, Girl s Best Friend, Last Exit, Gothika ) a recently orphaned, swishy 11-year-old sissy-of-a-boy 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.
