New Kids at benefit

When Wyc Grousbeck said he wanted to energize Mass. Eye and Ear, he wasn’t kidding. The Celtics owner has enlisted New Kids on the Block to perform at the hospital’s inaugural gala, which takes place Oct. 13 at the Renaissance Boston Waterfront Hotel. Why? New Kid Joey McIntyre ’s 9-month-old son, Rhys , was born with severe hearing loss, and the boy band star wants to support Mass.

Donnie Wahlberg Stars As NYPD Cop In 'Blue Bloods'

Donnie Wahlberg plays Danny in the new CBS show Blue Bloods , a drama about a multi-generational family of cops dedicated to New York City law enforcement. Frank Reagan is the New York City Police Commissioner and heads both the police force and the Reagan brood. He runs his department as diplomatically as he runs his family, even when dealing with the politics that plagued his unapologetically bold father, Henry, during his stint as Chief. A source of pride and concern for Frank is his eldest son Danny (Wahlberg), a seasoned detective, family man, and Iraqi War vet who on occasion uses dubious tactics to solve cases. Blue Bloods airs Fridays at 10pm on CBS. source> http://weblogs.wpix.com/news/local/morningnews/blogs/2010/09/donnie_wahlberg.html

Donnie Wahlberg Is On The Run Filming ‘Blue Bloods’ [PHOTOS]

September 24th, 2010 at 2:33 am Donnie Wahlberg runs like the wind as he films scenes to his new television series Blue Bloods in New York . The show, in its first season, stars himself, Tom Selleck , and Bridget Moynahan as the Reagan’s, a family of New York Citycops. The cast had no problem packing the Paley Centre in New York for a Blue Bloods event where the cast appeared and answered questions. Corlando of TV Fanatic was fortunate enough to attend the event where the season premiere was aired and it is something we shouldn’t miss! Donnie shared what it is like to film in New York City: “Someone yelled cut and the whole scene shut down,” Wahlberg laughed.  He also shared that an elderly woman using a walker wandered into a dangerous traffic scene they were filming: “She starts yelling at me, ‘This is a free country.  Shut up and mind your own business.’  Only in New York.” Blue Bloods premieres Friday, September 24, 2010 at 10/9 c. source: http:/...

Donnie Wahlberg says Bridget Moynahan’s got class

Photo by File Bridget Moynahan and Donnie Wahlberg on the set of CBS’ ‘Blue Bloods.’  Tom Brady ’s No. 1 baby mama, Bridget Moynahan , is “a dream to work with” and she doesn’t even mind if you root for 12 and the Pats! So says Donnie Wahlberg , who co-stars with B in the new CBS drama “Blue Bloods.” The ex- New Kid on the Block told WZLX’s Karlson & McKenzie that he and Jack ’s mom have a “really, really good friendship” - despite his love for her ex! “We talk a lot, we’re both single parents now, and you know, we have a lot in common,” Donnie told the radio duo. “But I did tell her, as friendly as we get, as much as I’m your friend, I’m still going to go to the Patriots   games and I’m still going to cheer for Tom, I hope that’s not a problem.” No problem-o, replied B. “She was like, ‘Of course you gotta cheer for him,’ and when she brings her son around, we high-five over the games.” Wahlberg said Moynahan, who plays his sister in the show about a...

Donnie Wahlberg: From pop to cop

By: Rachel Kossman, Boston.com Correspondent Dorchester native Donnie Wahlberg has quite the resume. His latest role is playing detective Danny Reagan on the new television drama "Blue Bloods." The series, which chronicles the lives of the Reagan family, premieres on CBS tonight (Sept. 24). Wahlberg has gone from singer in the infamous boy band New Kids on the Block to starring as various detectives in multiple TV series and movies.

Hangin’ tough: From boy band to leading man, Donnie Wahlberg joins the force of ‘Blue Bloods’

By Sarah Rodman Globe Staff / September 24, 2010 BEVERLY HILLS — When it comes to summer vacation reports, Donnie Wahlberg has got a pretty good one, though his summer wasn’t much of a vacation. In June he was finishing up the most recent leg of the New Kids on the Block reunion tour, performing duets with the Backstreet Boys. By the end of July he was stuffing bad guys’ heads in toilets and hanging with “Magnum, P.I.’’ The singer-actor concedes that it’s a good time to be Donnie Wahlberg, as he joins the pedigreed cast and crew of the new CBS family-of-cops drama, “Blue Bloods.’’ Created by veteran TV producer Leonard Goldberg (“Charlie’s Angels,’’ “Family’’) and executive produced by Emmy-winning “Sopranos’’ scribes Robin Green and Mitchell Burgess, the series premieres tonight at 10 on Channel 4. “Blue Bloods’’ chronicles the intertwined lives of the Reagan clan. The family i...

Blue Bloods Cast Talks Series Premiere

Surprise thunderstorms and 90-degree heat weren’t enough to scare off fans of this new CBS police drama, which stars Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg.  Cat calls and whistles were heard as the cast was introduced. Clearly, there is already excitement surrounding this show, even though the pilot won’t air until tomorrow night  Those of us lucky enough to attend got the privilege of an early showing.  Although I can’t give away too many details (the Paley Center hit squad may track me down and confiscate my laptop as punishment), I can say that you do not want to miss it.  Five minutes into the pilot, I was already hooked. Blue Bloods is a ...

Donnie Wahlberg: 'Blue Bloods' a treat

By BILL HARRIS, QMI Agency Donnie Wahlberg has been on the receiving end of a lot of second-party messages from fans through the years. But now that he’s working with Tom Selleck on the new series Blue Bloods, Wahlberg finds himself in the unaccustomed role of message conduit for Mr. Magnum P.I. “Having done the music and acting, I bump into so many people who say, ‘Oh my God, my sister loved you,’ ” said the 41-year-old Wahlberg, who first became famous as a member of New Kids on the Block. “Someone always has a message from someone for me. “But now that I’m working with Tom, everyone has a message for Tom. They say to me, ‘Oh my God, my mom loves Tom. Please tell Tom my mom loves him.’ “It’s awesome. It’s such a treat to be in that position. I’m not getting hit with messages every day, I’m getting to deliver a few.” Wahlberg plays one of Selleck’s sons on Blue Bloods, which debuts Friday, Sept. 24 on CBS and CTV. The series best can be described as a family drama mi...

'Detroit 1-8-7' and 'Blue Bloods' are latest to wear the badge

By Tom Shales Tuesday, September 21, 2010 ........ Finally, there's perhaps the coppiest cop show of the century so far, the soppy and self-satirizing CBS melodrama "Blue Bloods," about an entire family -- "the Reagans" yet! -- involved in the crime biz, including Bridget Moynahan as an assistant district attorney, plus Donnie Wahlberg and Will Estes as young cops, and Len Cariou as Grandpa Cop. And the patriarch? That fuzz-lipped stiff Tom Selleck as Frank Reagan, chief of police. It must have been in Selleck's contract that he wouldn't have to do much more than get in and out of cars and make speeches, the first one on the first show a snoozer staged in Madison Square Garden, where graduating cops include one of Frank's boys. As often happens on cop shows, police brutality is seen as a necessary evil because crooks are so mean and, of course, because the courts have become so lenient. You don't hear TV cops griping because they h...

new blog fron JoeyMcIntyre.com

09/20/2010 - Joe Mac and Eman: The Return of the Balls Hello. Its been way too long since my last blog. I guess it takes the return of one of the greatest road shows of all time to get me back on the blogisphere. That's right. The balls are back. Don't go there? Really? I mean...really?? You can't "go there" if you are already there. It's done "and there's nothing we could do". Are you following me? Well, I may be sounding a bit too grandiose, but that is the legacy of "One Too Many." All those dusty fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants road warrior, living the dream movies...We did that- what feels like a life time ago, but suddenly seems like yesterday. If we were smart, we'd let it live on in infamy. Instead we endeavor to dig it up, towel it off and beat the shit out of it. Cuz what else is life for, but to blow it. None of this is possible without Bravehearts. They were arguably baptized in th...

If you want to ride-a-long with one new cop drama this fall, let it be 'Blue Bloods'

September 17th, 2010 7:14 am PT Tom Selleck & Donnie Wahlberg of 'Blue Bloods' in Los Angeles Photo: (c) Danielle Turchiano, 2010 There are a couple of new cop dramas coming to television this fall season, and while they all feature characters who get too personally invested in their cases, only one of them manages to mix personal and professional lives in a non-formulaic, non-forced way. That stand-out is CBS'  Blue Bloods , starring Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg as a father-son police team. In the earliest moments of the Blue Bloods  pilot, director Michael Cuesta alternates between shots of the various Reagan family members getting dressed in their finest for a big event and images of seemingly nameless, faceless inhabitants of the city they have sworn to love and protect: New York. On top of it all is a mix of Frank Sinatra and Selleck himself, as he gives a speech to the 2010 graduating ...

Donnie Wahlberg grows up from New Kids on the Block to CBS' 'Blue Bloods'

BY Richard Huff DAILY NEWS TV EDITOR Thursday, September 16th 2010, 4:00 AM Blankenhorn/CBS Donnie Wahlberg (r.) gets back to acting on CBS' new cop series 'Blue Bloods.' Donnie Wahlberg was shooting a scene for CBS' "Blue Bloods" in Washington Square Park a few weeks back and a woman walked through the shot. At the time, he was dressed like a detective. His badge was showing and he was approaching a "suspect" in a car. He told the woman to step back, like any cop would. "The cameras are rolling, and she says, 'I'm going to walk down this sidewalk if I want to. It's a free country,'" Wahlberg says, laughing. "She didn't care. I've been around enough New York cops to know that's exactly what would happen. "That's New Yo...
