I just finished season 1 of this reality show off Netflix, which I believe is an A&E original. "Wahlburgers" showcases in reality format similar to what's dramatized on the HBO series, "Entourage". This show, however, mostly focuses on brother Paul Wahlberg, as the head chef and manager of the family restaurant "Wahlburgers" in Boston. Their outspoken mother- Alma I think is her name?- is a big part of the show as well. This family has like 15 kids??!! WTF?? LOL And famous bros Donnie (New Kids On The Block, TV's "Blue Bloods"), and more famous Mark, show up on a regular basis. You'll also see the real "Johnny Drama", as portrayed by Kevin Dillon on "Entourage", and others who inspired characters on that show.
Overall, I enjoyed this show- found it amusing and all. Just felt- like with most reality programming- it seemed to be a bit forced, and fake, at times. Now I'd really like to see a show (reality or not) that showcases Mark Wahlberg's criminal past- complete with violence and all..now wouldn't THAT make for much more entertaining/interesting TV viewing-????
