He confessed that it had been an amazing experience for him to work with Tom Selleck and Bridget Moynahan. The two actors appear as Frank Reagan and Erin Reagan, respectively.

As Wahlberg, 51, spoke, snippets of the pilot episode featured on the screen showing him when he was much younger. He shared how he didn’t think the very first episode could be beaten.

The actor also addressed the very first Reagan dinner which he described as “very dramatic” and “challenging.” The first episode of the CBS series aired on September 24, 2010.

Donny Wahlberg explained how the series would probably address things like police brutality and more.

During the summer, Wahlberg kept busy by working on HLN's true-crime series, “Very Scary People.” In July 2020, he discussed what fans could look forward to seeing on the show relating to what was happening in the country.
