Mulgrew's 'Black Donnellys' To Premiere Next Week

NBC is gearing up for the premiere of The Black Donnellys next Monday night following Heroes with a new preview featuring Kate Mulgrew (Captain Janeway), who plays Helen Donnelly on the series.

The pilot episode is available now at Yahoo! Having moved up the premiere date, NBC has also added an extended preview for the series to its web site.

Of the three trailers for the show, Mulgrew can be seen in the one that aired last night during Heroes, which should deliver a sizable lead-in audience to the new series. NBC First Look has photos and promotional material, while Yahoo! features all three trailers on its video site.

Mulgrew's official web site, Totally Kate!, has photos and screen caps from the series, as well as photos of Mulgrew at the wrap party.

The Black Donnellys tells the story of four working-class Irish-American brothers who become involved in crime in their native New York. Academy Award winners Paul Haggis and Bobby Moresco, who produced Crash, created the series.

Mulgrew does not appear in the first episode, which airs Monday, February 26th at 10 p.m., but her character is recurring later in the season.
