A&E greenlights Nick and Drew Lachey reality series, ‘Lachey’s Bar’
Former 98 Degrees singers Nick and Drew Lachey have entered the reality show entrepreneur game with their newly greenlighted A&E series, “Lachey’s Bar.”
The name is a working title, but it’s pretty plain what the show will be about: the Lachey brothers will open up a bar in their hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio. Production is expected to begin immediately on the 10 episode season and should premiere sometime in 2015.
The Lacheys’ series follows the same path Mark, Donnie and Paul Wahlberg started down earlier this year with their A&E reality series, “Wahlburgers,” which follows the brothers as they run a casual dining restaurant and bar in Boston with an eye on expansion.
The Wahlberg series debuted in January 2014 and was given another 18-episode order by A&E in February.
Nick Lachey is no stranger to the reality show game: he starred with his then-wife Jessica Simpson in the MTV series “Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica” that ran from 2003 to 2005. The couple filed for divorce in late 2005.
Now the only question remains: If it really is “Lachey’s Bar,” which Lachey does it really belong to?
