One of our favorite shows is helping us become more visible. Sesame Street recently featured an episode called \u201cFamily Day,\u201d introducing two dads, Frank (Alex Weisman) and Dave (the brother of Nina, played by Chris Costa, who works as a bike store owner on the street), and their daughter, Mia (Olivia Perez). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Directed by Alan Muraoka, who currently plays the owner of Hooper\u2019s Store on the program, the episode focuses on Big Bird, who thinks his grandmother (Granny Bird) can\u2019t make a party before he\u2019s surprised by his neighborhood family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe \u2018Family Day\u2019 episode of Sesame Street <\/em>sends the simple and important message that families come in all forms and that love and acceptance are always the most important ingredients in a family,\u201d GLAAD <\/a>President and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis tells Yahoo Entertainment. \u201cFrank and Dave, as Mia\u2019s dads, are the latest characters in an undeniable trend of inclusion across kids & family programming, one that allows millions of proud LGBTQ parents, and our children, to finally get to see families like ours reflected on TV.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
