When wealthy champion dog breeder Stu Hockersmith presents prize pup Lord Louis to lovely Bianca Jameson, he hopes to win her heart. Things don’t always go as planned. Bianca, oblivious to Stu’s amorous intentions, takes the adorable pooch back home to California where she goes on to become a celebrated author, writing books about little Lo-Lou.

Bianca thinks she’s living the good life with her Norse god of a fiancé, former fashion photographer Lars Lundgren. When she realizes Lars has spent all their money and committed her to a new book with a looming deadline, Bianca pulls out all the stops to get the job done. But she doesn’t know about all of Lars’ deals.

To make matters worse, Stu is informed that gifting the dog broke the kennel club bylaws and he now must get the pup back before his father’s legal team takes action against the woman he still loves.

Stu needs Lo-Lou to satisfy his father. Bianca needs Lo-Lou to finish her book. Lars needs Lo-Lou to work out a secret deal with a movie producer. Lo-Lou can’t be in three places at the same time. Or can he?

Imprintified

Harken back to the days of Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom. It was a fascinating nature show that was really just a vehicle for imprinting the brand of an insurance company on the American psyche. Of course, there were the commercials, but the name of the insurance company was actually a part of the title of the show.

It was even cleverly woven into the show itself. Who can ever forget narrator Marlin Perkins commenting as Jim Fowler wrestled with a giant anaconda, “Jim’s probably wondering if he’s got enough life insurance. Mutual of Omaha can help answer all your questions…”

Indies Unlimited has decided to follow in the footsteps of this great show with our own, entitled, Wild Wilderness Outdoors. It’s in early development, but here is a clip from the auditions for narrator for the program. We’ll probably keep looking. Probably.
