Donnie Wahlberg represents CBS

Written by Rosy on July 29, 2010  As the new fall season continues to inch closer, networks are doing their part to get audiences excited! Donnie Wahlberg made an appearance at the 2010 CBS Summer Press Tour Party held at The Tent on Wednesday, July 28th, 2010 in Beverly Hills, California. In a crisp white suit, he represents one of the networks most highly anticipated shows (at least by the millions of fellow Blockheads!) called, Blue Bloods. Producers Mitchell Burgess and Robin Green, whose names you might recognize from their writing work on the HBO hit The Sopranos, talk about their upcoming drama about the relationship between a father, played by Tom Selleck and son Wahlberg. The duo shares more than just a last name, they both for the New York Police department with Selleck as police commissioner and Wahlberg is a detective. “He reminds me of my dad,” Wahlberg shares . “He has this look about him, and growing up, my dad would have [a similar] look– like h...

Mark Wahlberg receives Walk of Fame star, reminisces about NKOTB, Calvin Klein underwear ad days

  Thursday, July 29, 2010// Posted by Corinne Heller at 05:47:08 PM PDT Mark Wahlberg , star of the upcoming Will Ferrell movie The Other Guys , received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Thursday and reminisced about his days as a pop singer, rapper and Calvin Klein underwear model . "This is a huge honor. I start my day off every day by going to church and I thank God every day for all the beautiful blessings that have been bestowed upon me," Wahlberg, 39, told a crowd. "It's been an amazing journey, from having passed up on a huge opportunity, really, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be in a boy band and passing on that and having my brother come and visit me in a not-so-nice place and say, 'Don't worry, when you get out of here, we're going to do your own record and you'll do your own thing,'" he said. Wahlberg was raised in Dorchester, Massachusetts and was involved in petty crime and drug dealing. When...

That’s a guy who flirts with Angie Harmon. I took that role to flirt with Angie Harmon! Wouldn’t you? She’s hot!" Donnie Wahlberg insists, starting off our conversation with a bang discussing his stand-out role on the new TNT cop drama, Rizzoli & Isles . It is the CBS-TV TCA party in Beverly Hills, and hot off his Blue Bloods presentation alongside co-star Tom Selleck-- and still looking quite daper in his crisp white suit-- Wahlberg chats casually with reporters and network ex...

Donnie Wahlberg gets to work on "Blue Bloods"

Posted by Mark Shanahan July 30, 2010 10:59 AM  Will Eates and Bridget Moynahan on location for "Blue Bloods" on the streets of Manhattan At least for now, Donnie Wahlberg is hanging up his dancing shoes. But he's still on the move. After finishing the most recent New Kids on the Block tour in June, and enjoying a little R&R back in the Bay State, Wahlberg is off to the Big Apple to begin work with Bridget Moynahan on the new CBS show  " Blue Bloods ." But first he had a press junket in Beverly Hills. Sitting alongside co-star Tom Selleck , who plays his dad and New York's police chief on the cop drama, Wahlberg said he was excited about the resumes of the folks involved with the show. (There are multiple Emmy winners, including former " Sopranos " producers/scribes Robin Green and Mitchell Burgess , and Selleck.) "Obviously, I know of all of their work, but the humility they all have for such success is amazing,"...

Tom Selleck, Donnie Wahlberg Unveil Blue Bloods at the TCA's

 by Cynthia Boris July 28, 2010 07:55 PM EDT It's time for another round of panels and parties thanks to the 2010 Summer Press Tour, also known as the TCA's  (Television Critics Association). CBS was first up today and they had lots of star power on hand including Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg who came to discuss their new family cop drama, Blue Bloods. Blue Bloods follows several generations of New York City cops as they deal with both issues on the job and off. Tom Selleck plays patriarch Frank Regan. He is the Chief of Police and the head of the household. Danny (Wahlberg) is the eldest son, an Irqi War vet who believes that ends justify the means. Jaime (Will Estes) is the wide-eyed boy right out of Harvard Law but instead of going with his degree, he decides to become a cop. Erin (Bridget Moynahan) is the one girl in the family. She's an Assistant DA and a single parent. It's bu...

Joey McIntyre’s back in second ‘Mad Men’ spoof

By Inside Track / Friday, July 23, 2010 Photo by Funny or Die ‘MA Men’ stars Joey McIntyre, left, Rob Delaney and Nat Faxon. I n honor of the return of AMC ’s “Mad Men,” New Kid on the Block Joey McIntyre and his pals have just posted a sequel to their hilarious “MA Men” video that depicts life at Sterling Cooper - if it were run by a bunch of beer-soaked Bostonians! “We are all Massholes, so the accents are real,” Joey Mac told the Track. “We had a blast doing it.” In the NSFW send-up, which you can see on Will Ferrell’s Funny or Die (remember, NSFW!), Joey Mac plays Rogah Sterling, the skirt-chasing head of the Boston version of Sterling-Cooper. Hub comic Rob Delaney is Don Draper, the skirt-chasing creative director of the agency. “ Matt Damon literally wanted to do it but he was unavailable on the day we first shot it,” Delaney told the Track. “So I got to eat his lunch. But I think we can agree I did a much bet...

Dennehy, Wahlberg guest star as Boston Strangler case haunts Rizzoli & Isles

Television Review: Rizzoli & Isles, "Boston Strangler Redux"  by R.J. Carter Published: July 18, 2010 Cast: · Angie Harmon · Sasha Alexander · Donnie Wahlberg · Brian Dennehy Related Sites: · IMDb: Rizzoli & Isles Grade: A In 1967, Albert DeSalvo was sentenced to life in prison for crimes attributed to a serial killer dubbed the Boston Strangler. But some police officers involved with the case believe the wrong man was arrested -- that the real Strangler was still out there, waiting to strike again. When a young woman's body is dumped from an overpass into the outfield of a ballpark where the police just happen to be playing softball, it's the start of an investigation that begins to take historical turns. The woman was strangled, and when a similarly murdered body turns up within hours, it all starts to seem hauntingly familiar to veteran Detective Korsak (Bruce McGill) -- especially when Detective Rizzol...

JOE MACS SUMMER VACATION!

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010 JOE MACS SUMMER VACATION! First- I miss you. Second- my vacation on Cape Cod was just so perfect in countless ways, I could do a separate blog for it. I grew up going down there as a kid and this time to have my own, running around the beach with their cousins was heaven. Griffin doesn’t see his east coast cousins much, but you wouldn’t know it by the way they all hang out together. We also had our niece Audrey stay with us to baby-sit, and anyone with young kids knows it’s a treat to go out for a dinner date more than once a month. We shared a beautiful old “cottage” with Barrett’s sister and her family. They have a beautiful little girl. Our days started way too early, but if we made it to the beach before anyone got pushed or bitten, it was a good morning. The weather everyday was A+. We lucked out in every way. Driving around and having all that Americana summertime fun. And I will treasure so many quiet moments with my boys of that sweet tim...

Which island can hold Barenaked Ladies, NKOTB and Matt Wells at one time?

Which island can hold Barenaked Ladies, NKOTB and Matt Wells at one time? Let me tell you a little something about Barbados - it just might be the 2nd most beautiful island I have ever set foot on (behind my home land of Newfoundland and Labrador). The only problem with me visiting however happens to stem from the very fact that I am from Newfoundland. My pale, white complexion is no match for the Hulk Hogan strength of the Bajan sun. By day one the sunscreen had melted away and the entire week you will notice my face of red and legs of white …..but I owned it, so on with the TV magic avec New Kids on the Block and Barenaked Ladies (nakedly sad to announce not actual naked ladies, but musically happy to announce it is actually the band). The Highlights We got to know the island with the help of an excellent tour guide and musician who calls himself Jaicko. He is a household name in Barbados and is working on having that same musical awareness in the rest of the world; ...

No tours, no appearances ... what's next for the fab five?

July 9, 11:19 AM New Kids on the Block Examiner Effie Orfanides If you're a fan of New Kids on the Block, you're probably wondering what the guys will do next ... and when. Donnie, Jordan, Joe, Jon, and Danny have wrapped their CasiNO Tour, where they performed at several casinos in North America. But alls been quiet on the NKOTB front ... even on Twitter. There hasn't been a post on the news or tour section of their website in over two weeks, and some fans are getting nervous. Sure, the guys need a break, and I see no better time for them to do that then the summer. Well, fans, I would go so far as to say that this is only a short break. The guys know how much you need them, and I think they need you too. I've heard from sources that the guys are working on their own individual endeavors, such as Donnie Wahlberg who will be starring alongside Tom Selleck and Bridget Moynahan in the new television drama, Reagan's Law . There has already been talk of ...

My interview w/ “New Kids on the Block”

 http://www.better.tv/blogs/better/2010/07/06/my-interview-w-new-kids-on-the-block/ July 6, 2010 I sat down w/ NKOTB’s Donnie Wahlberg, Danny Wood, and Jon Knight before their last scheduled show at NYC’s Radio City Music Hall. We showed up at 4pm (their show was at 8pm) and there were already tons of fans lined up hoping to catch a glimpse of them heading inside…we spent about an hour setting everything up, so we could maximize the time we had with them.. As they walked up, I greeted them and Donnie immediately gave me a big hug. He was very sweet. They were sad about the Celtics losing the NBA finals a few nights before..Jon said that was the most upset he’d ever seen Donnie..Donnie admitted he’d shed a few tears… I had never interviewed them before, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I expected Donnie to be the most talkative and then Danny and Jon last. And I was wrong! They were all very happy and excited for the show…Jon was very open and talkative…they all tal...

Straight from the Tour!

Source:  http://djcheapshot.com/site/archives/category/news 23.06.2010 So this past weekend, June 17-19th 2010 commemorated the last weekend of the New Kids on the Block Casi-NO tour! There are three things that, prior to this tour, I never would have expected to happen: 1) I never would have thought I would become the DJ for NKOTB! 2) I never thought I would perform at Radio City Music Hall in NYC and 3) I never thought I would perform with NKOTB at Radio City Music Hall in NYC and actually miss the tour when I got home! Well all three things have happened. Contrary to what I thought before I hit the road, I had a blast-a-roony! Everyone from the “kids” to the band, to the crew, to the fans, to the cruise, to the guys who served me way too much booze were ALL amazing! I’m super glad I did it and have nothing but fond memories (except when I woke up with bubble gum stuck to my nipples) of the experience. I filmed a bunch of footage as ...

I’m ‘Hangin’ Tough’ and don’t care who knows it

July 1, 2010 I’m ‘Hangin’ Tough’ and don’t care who knows it By Lorie Love Hailey Register Editor RICHMOND — In fifth grade, I was a huge fan of New Kids on the Block. And I was not alone. Every girl I knew had NKOTB T-shirts, cassettes, posters and even trading cards. We each had a favorite member; mine was Jonathan. Everyone I knew was talking about “Hangin’ Tough,” or singing “The Right Stuff.” But one day — it seemed literally overnight — the boy band was no longer cool. In fact, if you somehow missed that memo and wore your favorite New Kids shirt, you were subject to ridicule for still liking them. My dad and stepmother, who lived in another state, made the mistake of buying me a New Kids sweatshirt for Christmas after they were no longer popular. The last time they had seen me, in the summer, I was all about the boy band. By Christmastime, the sweatshirt was a very embarrassing gift. But, what had changed? How did it change so quickly? Someone higher...
