Footnote Television -- Where Do You Belong?
Contact: Jamie Gaylor, 918-794-6464
 
MEDIA ADVISORY, Nov. 5 /Standard Newswire/ -- How many friends do you have? That question is getting complicated. It depends on who's asking, and what exactly they mean by friends.
 
Strictly speaking, we have lots of friends. Never has the world been more connected than it is now. We are, constantly, connected to a brain-bursting amount of people - work contacts, distant family members, old high school friends, even people we don't like that much. By the popular definition, most of us have hundreds of friends.
 
And yet, the current generation is being called history's loneliest. Friendship's biggest prize, acceptance, remains the Holy Grail - desperately sought and rarely found. When you strip away our online followers, our smart phone contacts, our social networks, what are we left with? How do we just belong?
 
In the first episode of a new series on WGN America, that concept is explored in three entertaining and involving stories. And it sets the bar high for future episodes of the new show, titled Footnote to illustrate the overall concept: that the best stories are often found, not in the headlines, but in the small everyday moments of life...in the footnotes.
 
Footnote has already won four 2010 Telly Awards for its pilot program, and the buzz is high for the new series. The first episode airs Saturday November 6th at 3:00AM ET on WGN America, broadcasting nationwide to 76 million households. The show will also simulcast on WGN's flagship station in Chicago, the nation's #3 television market.
