Perhaps the most famous family in Boston, the Wahlberg clan counts actor-producer Mark and singer-actor Donnie as the most renowned members.
In Lifetime’s reality show “Wahlburgers,” the entertainers share the limelight with older sibling Paul, the chef and brains behind their new burger business.
The series also stars family matriarch Alma, actress Jenny McCarthy (who is Donnie’s girlfriend), and a host of friends and eccentric Wahlburgers employees. The series premieres tonight at 8 and will subsequently air every Thursday at 8:30 p.m.

Directed by Steven Soderbergh and starring Clive Owen, “The Knick” premieres on Aug. 9, 9 p.m. on Cinemax. Episodes air soon after the US premiere.
