Family: the web series is an episodic web series created by actress and filmmaker Terisa Greenan, and based loosely on her own life of polyamory with her two male partners. Greenan wrote and directed the show, and acted in a small supporting role. Some episodes were co-written by Matt Bullen. The series is 21 episodes in total, and explores the fictional lives of Gemma (Amber Rack), Ben (Ernie Joseph) and Stuart (Eric Smiley), who live in Seattle as a polyamorous "V" triad. Greenan began the web series while she was between acting jobs in the autumn of 2008, and by early 2009 the show had received national attention, including an invitation from the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction to include a DVD of the web series in the polyamory section of their library. Greenan and "Family: the web series" have gone on to be profiled by numerous national and international newspapers, magazines, television shows and radio programs, including being featured on the television show The O'Reilly Factor. Prominent blogger Mistress Matisse, herself openly polyamorous, featured and commented on many episodes of "Family" on her widely read blog.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
