When I was a kid, we didn't have as many television choices as we do now.  We didn't even have cable, but on Sundays we'd anxiously wait for the Wonderful World of Disney movies and we'd actually watch these as a family.  As a kid, the word family-friendly meant nothing to me - I was just glad to watch with my brothers and parents. But as a Mom family-friendly programming does mean a lot.  That's why, I'm excited to let you know about an upcoming family-friendly movie that is coming out on NBC on July 16.  It's called The Jensen Project and after seeing the trailer, I'm actually excited to see this movie.  Another great thing is that Moms 4 Family TV (M4FTV) support this quality programming and their seal of approval means that I can rest easy knowing that it's a movie that I can watch with my kids.

Moms 4 Family TV  (M4FTV) recently contacted me to let you know that there are more movies in the works and that the last made for TV movie they supported, Secrets of the  Mountain, was a great success.  Unfortunately I missed the show but lucky for you, M4FTV has graciously given MasonMetu five DVD/CD Secrets of the Mountain bundles (includes the movie and the movie soundtrack) .  And there will be an encore performance of Secrets of the Mountain on July 10 on NBC.

You can read more about how these family-friendly movies came to be by reading an article from the Wall Street Journal.  It turns out that our very own Cincinnati based Procter & Gamble is one of the main sponsors behind the movies.  It's nice to see that they are helping to promote family-friendly programming.
