The Black Donnellys - Keith/Joey 'Ice Cream' #2: Umm, hello, have you seen the muscles?!

Anastasyia · 04-03-2007, 10:48 AM

Welcome to the 2nd Keith/Joey 'Ice Cream' Appreciation Thread!
Here's to the greatest storyteller around!

Keith Nobbs narrates and stars in NBC’s new drama “The Black Donnellys” as “Joey Ice Cream,” a fast-talking Irish-American weasel who was born and raised on the mean streets of New York City. A pathological liar, he always tags along behind the Donnelly brothers, though none of them ever trust him.

Nobbs has guest starred on NBC’s “Law & Order” and “Law & Order: Criminal Intent,” and had guest stints on the award-winning series “The Sopranos” and “New York Undercover.”

A graduate of the prestigious High School for the Performing Arts in New York City, Nobbs has starred in “The Lion in Winter” on Broadway and in more than 10 off-Broadway productions. His feature-film credits include Spike Lee’s “25th Hour” with Edward Norton and Joel Schumacher’s “Phone Booth” with Colin Farrell. His next feature film is “In Search Of.”

Where did his nickname come from?
The reason he gives for his nickname is "Under pressure, I'm like ice."
Yet in a childhood flashback you see for yourself, it's really because, well, he likes ice cream.

Message from Keith himself!

Hey you guys-

I just wanted to thank everybody for getting behind our show and standing by it against the scary network people (this is Keith by the way- I play Joey Ice Cream). I know you guys have been calling the comment line and writing letters and that's awesome. Trying to get through to a huge corporation like nbc can feel like you're banging your head against a wall for no reason but it does have an affect.

I got an email from one of the producers and he said that people are watching the show- just not enough neilson families. He told me it has been one of the most consistently streamed series on nbc.com and has been one of the most downloaded new series on itunes. So people are watching- just not the people who matter to nbc.

All the episodes will come out on the website so you guys will get to see everything (wait till the end finale- it's the Donnelly brothers at their best).

But anyway, thanks for supporting us. It has been awesome to see how much you love the show and believe in it.

Please add me. I think he is a really interesting character and he always make me laugh.

Anastasyia · 04-03-2007, 12:32 PM

Heee. A new Joey fan! Adding you now!

ForEver_Silenced · 04-03-2007, 01:44 PM

Lexy, I love this title, and the fact that you started it. Spasibo.

Have you searched through your book collection? Have you read the book before?

brathanfan27 · 04-03-2007, 02:25 PM

WOO-HOO thread 2 baby!
Go Joey! Yeah, yeah. Go Joey!

Anastasyia · 04-03-2007, 03:46 PM

Heee. You're welcome, Kathy.

I have the book! I have the book! I'm going to have to read it once I stop cleaning my house so much.

ForEver_Silenced · 04-03-2007, 03:59 PM

Yay! Yay! I'm glad you have the book. Ew, cleaning. I hate doing that.

Anastasyia · 04-03-2007, 04:15 PM

I have to do it. I'm selling my house. But, no one wants to buy it, because someone died in it. Um. Grow up, and get over it.

I bet Joey would buy it.

ForEver_Silenced · 04-03-2007, 04:24 PM

Oh, ok. Yes, continue cleaning. Someone died in my house, too. You don't see me going insane. Sheesh!

Of course. Joey doesn't seem to care about anything.
