Mark Wahlberg's new Boston reality show is about nerds making nerd beer
Mark Wahlberg continues to put the “Boston” in “I’M MARK WAHLBERG. I’M FROM BOSTON,” selling A&E his fourth straight reality show about the city of Boston, where Mark Wahlberg is from. Titled The Big Brew Theory, after that sitcom full of nerds that Mark Wahlberg could take, the series aims to follow four “quirky and highly intelligent MIT grad students” who apply that collective brainpower—and their life savings—toward creating their own microbrewery. These graduates of one of the nation’s most advanced academic institutions will try to succeed with the help of “a beautiful MIT undergrad,” as well as the endorsement of Mark Wahlberg, an actor who just last year achieved his high school diploma in between earning millions of dollars and pitching reality shows to A&E where something happens in Boston, maybe this time with burgers or beer.
