“This week is a blockhead’s dream,” said the New Kids, and they weren’t wrong. The BH family is everywhere, so much that now we’ve got a new hashtag to use on social media
On Tuesday we watched Danny Wood on The Wood Works; on Wednesday, Jonathan Knight on Farmhouse Fixer and our sister Jenny McCarthy on The Masked Singer; on Friday, Country Comfort, featuring our nephew Griffin ☺️, premiered on Netflix and at night we had another episode of Blue Bloods with Donnie Wahlberg! And, let’s not forget that Donnie is also back on Sundays with “Very Scary People.”
Therefore! Without any further introduction, here’s what you saw and… (you know how it goes) what you may have missed!

Congratulations Griffin!
Just like Jon had a red carpet for the premiere of Farmhouse Fixer, so did Griffin! The Macs set up an entrance with golden curtains, for the young start to celebrate the premiere of Country Comfort.
On social media, NKOTB, Jon and Joey expressed their enthusiasm:
“We spy a McIntyre! ???? Congratulations Griffin on today’s premiere of Country Comfort on @netflix! We’re tuned in ❤️” – NKOTB, March 19, 2021
“CountryComfort out Now!!! Starring my guy @thegriffinmcintyre. Today’s the day! Please enjoy this really fun, heartwarming new show on @netflixfamily #funny #music #singing #country #nashvillle #heart. PS- it’s starring a lot of other amazing people too ???” – Joey McIntyre, March 19, 2021
“Stayed up extra late last night to catch @thegriffinmcintyre on his new Netflix series…. Who else tuned in? That country twang is killing me. ? So proud of this young man! Go Griffin!!!” – Jonathan Knight, March 20, 2021
In The Mac World
Joey continued working on “feeling like a person” while we wait for some news about the tickets for #TheWonderer; but on Saturday he got a little more serious.
On Tuesday evening, we heard the news about the shootings at three Atlanta-area spas that left eight people dead. Joey wrote on Saturday night,
“Sending love and respect to all my Asian-American friends and especially our Asian-American blockheads. I’m LISTENING.”

In The Farm
Are you Feeling Lost About Farmhouse Fixer Episodes?
They aired them out of order; that’s what happened. You can check out the full schedule at Farmhouse Fixer and join the blog’s fan page on Facebook at fb/farmhousefixer.blog.
Jon Knight’s Interview For Architectural Digest
In an interview with Architectural Digest, Jon talks about how his love for designing began; he says that at six years old he “was obsessed with circular barns,” how his dad Alan (being a carpenter) was an influence in his interest for architecture and he also mentions the summers he spent in Canada in a cottage built by his grandfather.
Actually, a few years ago, Jon shared two photos her mom had passed to him; back then he captioned them saying, “My Great Grandfather James Archibald Putman circa 1901. Now I know where my love for old barns came from….. and my great head of hair. “
It’s a very well written interview and we get to learn a lot about this other side of Jon’s life. Don’t miss it!
Special Guest: Max The Duck
When Jon asked on Twitter who we thought was going to show up on the fourth episode of Farmhouse Fixer (after having watched Jordan Knight on the previous one) some said, “your mom! Stella!” (I went for Stella)
Margaret Sommers nailed it with her answer; she said,
“The fact that we get see YOU each is just almost enough. Of course we could ALWAYS throw in any of the other guys (; extra credit for Jordan) and the night would be perfect but we understand if it is just you. Of course can we get some of @harcules30 appearance also?”
But, who appeared instead – making his debut on national television – was Max, one the three ducks Jon rescued from Wild Bird Fund in 2018. “Adopt or rescue a pet today!”, Jon said.
Wild Bird Fund, is New York City’s only wildlife rehabilitation and education center. If you find a bird or small mammal in need, please bring it in. They are open 10-6 daily. For more info, visit their official website at wildbirdfund.org. Find them on Twitter at @WildBirdFund.
Home Again With The Fords, on HGTV
On Tuesday night, Jon said, “Today was a great HGTV day. It’s about to get even better. My favorite Family team is on next! @HeyLeanneFord and Steve Ford.”
Leanne is an interior designer from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; her and Steve have a show on HGTV, “Home Again with the Fords” which you can catch on Tuesdays 9pm PST.

The Wood Works
Danny Wood, after making us fall in love with his smile in his new profile picture, walked us through two recipes using salmon on the 19th Episode of “The Wood Works”; first he showed us a quick and easy way to make Crispy Salmon, and then a simple recipe for Baked Salmon. Watch the episode on YouTube at the woodworks/s1e19.
Block Party
So… Who is Hannah? I am asking; I don’t have the answer! The New Kids kicked off the week on Twitter with a hilarious clip from this woman named “Hannah,” who shares what a “bring your Donnie Wahlberg” day at work is.
On Wednesday, the New Kids celebrated St. Patricks Day by sharing an old picture of the guys wearing Celtics t-shirt and jumping on stage.
On Thursday they brought back cruise memories… Could it be a hint? ?
And… that’s a wrap! Don’t forget to…
