Former New Kids on the Block member Joey McIntyre began an acting career after the group first disbanded in the 1990s, and those worlds collide in this scripted comedy series. McIntyre plays a version of himself, along with his real-life family -- wife Barrett and children Griffin, Rhys and Kira -- as he embarks on a quest to be taken seriously as an actor. When Joey pitches a drama series to fledgling cable network The Comfy Channel, they instead offer him a job hosting a late-night talk show, which he reluctantly accepts, forcing him to navigate the talk-show industry. Also starring in the series are former NKOTB bandmate Donnie Wahlberg and his wife Jenny McCarthy, who also serve as executive producers with McIntyre.

Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe I like this fluffy little show, which features guest visits from January Jones and the other Joey, Joey's nemesis Joey Lawrence, who is a total creep. Apr 11, 2017 Full Review Mark A. Perigard Boston Herald New Kids on the Block singer Joey McIntyre plays himself in Return of the Mac. He might not be the right actor for the part.
