Mackie’s back
Consuelo Mack launches her new show, “Consuelo Mack Wealthtrack,” this Friday on Ch. 21 (7:30 p.m.). The former CNBCer’s show is described as offering a “holistic” approach to investing, with advice on everything from stocks, bonds, real estate and collectibles. The show will be rerun 8 a.m. Saturdays on Ch. 13.
Speaking of new shows, supermodel Tyra Banks, who kicks off her new talk show in September, is being featured in a series of TV ads in which she says she was skinny and gawky as a kid – especially after a growth spurt when she was 11. But she got plenty of support from her mom, who she’ll no doubt talk about when “The Tyra Banks Show” begins its run Sept. 12.
