Boston Police To Be Featured In New Cable Docu-Drama, 'Boston Blue'

BOSTON (CBS) - Boston will be featured on the small screen once again.

For the fall, TNT has added a new docu-drama about the Boston Police Department tentatively called "Boston Blue," the network announced late last week.

The show will follow police officers from the Boston Police Department's Gang Unit and the wide-ranging list of crimes they work to solve on a daily basis.

Donnie Wahlberg, a native of Dorchester, will serve as executive producer along with Julie Insogna-Jarrett and Seth Jarrett of the Jarret Creative Group.

"With Boston Blue, we're looking to grab viewers who come to TNT for such blockbuster originals as The Closer and Rizzoli & Isles," said Michael Wright, president, head of programming for TNT, TBS and Turner Classic Movies (TCM). "We're very excited about moving further into the realm of unscripted dramas with these outstanding additions to the TNT lineup."
