You have to have lived in LA AND have worked in Hollywood to understand some of the innuendos. The first couple seasons were so dead on, it was hilarious.
 
I was always curious about this show. Should I check it out? Is it really good?

Yes. It's very good imo. The first three seasons are excellent. Ari Gold is one of the best television characters ever.

Remember that post I made about the repetitiveness of House? Making one for Entourage would be twice as easy.
 
Love the show, and now that Vince is back on top, it's a lot more fun than "mopey" Vince was after Medellin.
 
My four shows are...

House MD
Boston Legal
24
Burn Notice

In that order.

although not as much lately.. 24 was the first show that literally stressed me out. I remember after the last episode of season 1 I couldnt sleep for 3 hours cause I was so stressed lol. LOVE 24.

Yeah, that was an awesome scene. That season was great. I've been disappointed with this season so far.

I've been disappointed the last couple seasons. It's slowly running out of steam, and I think they're trying too hard to have the latest hot spots in LA and the latest music, but not focusing enough on "the business".

Although, I would like to say, that entourage is very good at getting the latest hot spots and music. They had Kid Cuddi's day and night on an episode LAST SUMMER, and that song just hit Portland like... a couple months ago. It was playing down in LA back in March.

Yeah, the first 3 seasons were great. I remember one night I decided to start watching it from the beginning because I kept hearing it was good. I found a site online that had the first 3 seasons and watched the first episode, then the next, then the next...before I knew it, I had watched the entire first 2 seasons and it was like 5:30am.

I thought you might find this amusing... Ari Gold is based on a real life person. Brother of Rahm Emanuel, Ari Emanuel.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ari_Emanuel
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ari_Gold_(Entourage)

From the latter page:


Ari's character is based on the real-life Hollywood superagent Ari Emanuel[1], who broke away from mega-agency ICM to form the Endeavor Talent Agency, which represents such stars as Vin Diesel and Larry David, both of whom are represented on the show by the fictional Ari Gold. Likewise, both Emanuel and Gold represent series producer, Mark Wahlberg, upon whose experiences in Hollywood the series is loosely based. Ari Emanuel also once represented Jeremy Piven himself, and in an interview on the special features of the Season 3 Part 2 DVD, Entourage creator Doug Ellin says that the real life Ari demanded the part be cast to Piven and wouldn't accept anyone else to play him. Real-life Ari Gold (filmmaker) is an award-winning filmmaker whose most recent film Adventures of Power showed at Sundance 2008 and also produced the CD of one of Adrian Grenier's (actor who portrays Vincent Chase) bands, The Honey Brothers, in 2003[2].

Actually, I worked for a guy who was the real Ari's assistant at one point, and trust me.... he was 10x worse and not nearly as funny (my boss, not Ari).

Oh, and Endeavor is full of arrogant pricks.

Ask that person if they know a former literary agent at Endeavor named Brian Lipson. He grew up mostly in LO and was one of my best friends in Jr. High and Freshman year in HS before he moved.

He and I aren't on good terms. I worked for him for a couple weeks and called it good. Dude was the biggest prick I've ever seen. When I told him I was quitting, he said if he was 10 years younger or if I was 10 years older, he'd kick my ass.
 
Its a great show, most ppl who say that they dont like the new seasons generally say it has moved away from wat it used be (sex, partying, making movies). but i have liked the recent seasons because they have had a strong story and vince not always getting what he wants. the current season has been pretty good too (excluding the tom brady episode), showing the entourage going their separate ways. Steve Nash is going to be on the next episode!

Entourage is pretty good, but then again I probably watch too much TV (on DVD):

My "shows"

Entourage (haven't seen this season yet though)
Scrubs
Futurama (new episodes coming)
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
Flight of the Conchords
Lost
Heroes
The Office
House
30 Rock
Californication
Nip/Tuck (haven't seen in forever)
The Real Estate Pros (Trademark Properties edition)

Arrested Development (R.I.P.)
Firefly (R.I.P.)
Dirty Sexy Money (R.I.P.)
Pushing Daisies (R.I.P.)
SportsNight (R.I.P)


Probably missing a few. Lots of other shows I've heard I need to check out including Curb Your Enthusiasm and Eastbound and Down. When I have time. Which is never, now. Damn you 10 hour days and my recommitting to getting ripped.
