RUNNING TIME 20:00 Contacts: CINDY YANTIS (213) 924-0627 KELLY HARE (818) 679-2070 Co-Creators Producers SYNOPSIS After getting a clean bill of health along with a truly annoying dating challenge from her oncologist, Georgia takes “surviving” to the next level by plunging into what is arguably her first date after divorce, all while blogging about it on her mommy blog, “On Georgia’s Mind.” Most of the time Georgia tries to do everything right, but that doesn’t stop her from fantasizing about what she’d really like to do it. Through the help of her loyal readers and her two sidekicks, Georgia gets ready for the most important effing date of her life. LOGLINE As is living through breast cancer, a challenging divorce and an independent teenager weren’t enough, but will she survive her first date in twenty years? HOW GEORGIA WAS BORN: Co-Creators Cindy Yantis and Kelly Hare met in an acting class in 1999. Not only did they become fast friends but have seen each other through many of life’s ups and downs. Kelly is a breast cancer survivor, came through a challenging divorce and is the mom of a vibrant, independent teenage daughter. ON GEORGIA’S MIND is loosely based on events stemmed from her roller coaster experiences. Cindy was there through all of it. So when Kelly came to her with the idea of creating something uplifting and humorous out of what were some of her lowest lows, Cindy ran with it, creating a new backdrop and world for Georgia. Together they shaped a fresh take on a mom who’s just trying to do everything right while many times doing it wrong, and all while blogging it to the world, or at least to the people who read her blog. ON GEORGIA’S MIND hopes to inspire the survivor in all of us.
