Entourage: Season 6

[foleyfanforever88]

Seasons 2 through 4 with the Aquaman stuff and Billy Walsh was the best they've done. The show now is just good enough to keep watching.

Billy Walsh is the worst. Besides Dom.

I could have sworn Turtle came up with the idea for his business at the end of last season.

He came up with the idea 2 seasons ago before college. He was covering for Dom's limo business and told Jamie about the idea. Then he goes to Ari for advice how to start it and it leads him to going to college. So really, they introduced the business idea as his end goal a long time back, they just skipped over some schooling and the start of the business. Which is fine by me.

I'm pretty meh on this season too. I'll agree that I watch Entourage because I watch Entourage and that's probably it. If I didn't have X seasons under my belt with the show I'd probably bail, but I'm paying for HBO and have a DVR so there's lots of worse ways to kill 25 minutes a week.

Oh fuck that. Billy Walsh mouthing the lines of Medellin while everyone else was bored out of their minds is one of the greatest things ever. As were nearly all of his scenes.

I can't imagine these last seasons getting people interested in seeing the Entourage movie.

Brand loyalty kicks quality's ass every time.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

Yeah but it doesn't sound like there's much loyalty left (using TSM as a core sampling).

 

[Mattdotcom]

Check the frat house, brah.

Oddly enough, I recently figured out where NoCalMike got that "Horny kicks embarassing's ass every time" line from and kinda kicked myself for not knowing that.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

I didn't like the line where Vince said he and Drama raced on their bikes to the corner store to plat Street Fighter. Isn't Drama like 40?

 

[Mattdotcom]

To be fair, they're all lifelong gamers and I could see a twenty something Drama still riding bikes and playing vidya games with his baby bro.

Entourage sucks now. Anyone else agree? - Bodybuilding.com Forums

 

[Twisted Intestine]

I don't think it sucks, I still enjoy it. There's just no interesting story arcs.

 

[ZGangsta]

Is it just me or did it seem like the earlier seasons were subtly satirizing the fact that these guys are enormous douchebags, whereas now the show seem to celebrating it?

Unfortunate Implications. Particularly in the early seasons it's really hard not to be put off by the rampant misogyny. Women are very openly treated as sex objects and, other than Shauna, there aren't really any female characters that act as anything other than skirts for the guys to chase. The show itself doesn't actually comment on the morality at play, leaving it somewhat open to interpretation, and a show focused heavily on male-friendship and masculine banter will always have to deal with this. Later seasons improve though, with more female characters in non-relationship roles and an increased focus on the growing maturity of the characters.

 

[LuckyLopez]

Eh. We've had Sloane, Jamie Lynn, Mandy Moore, Emily, and Amanda. Some much lesser characters like Jacqueline or Vince's Queens girl. Mrs. Ari and Barbara. I think we've seen our share of deeper career women and the guys have all had their hearts broken. Is a lot of the show the dudes chasing random women who don't mind sleeping with you hours after meeting you? Yeah, sure, but its always been. If its bothering you now its only because you're not as easily distracted by the good and there's been enough women fleshed out beyond a pair of tits and what's between their legs that I can't really accuse Entourage of doing a disservice.

The show's not sending some kind of subtle message that women are just sex machines. While Vince and Drama may think that E and Ari have the support of intelligent and beautiful women who were invaluable to getting them where they are. Its just that girls these guys chase often ARE the ones happy to get drunk and fuck someone they just met. And its always been.

If that's a problem now, like I said, its probably just that the exploits aren't entertaining you as much and thus you have more time to think. That or Entourage was just a show that shouldn't have lasted 6 or 7 seasons since it was just about some immature dudes doing some sophomoric stuff, and once they had to grow beyond that or milk it too long it lost a lot of its appeal.

Mrs. Ari is still the hottest woman to be on the show.

 

[NoCalMike]

EDIT: oops wrong show.

 

[OG]

"It's gonna be a long day for Uncle Jesse!" was the highlight of that episode. Best one of the season although still not spectacular. 1/4 on the season.

 

[Bigelow34]

"It's gonna be a long day for Uncle Jesse" may be one of my favorite quotes ever. The Saget/Stamos reunion should be fun.

 

[Twisted Intestine]

Nobody's going to talk about that last episode? They went all out on the cameos and Ari's wife was the hottest she's ever been. *****

 

[Black Lushus]

I have a feeling Sasha Grey is going to stink up the show even more.

but hey, ARI'S WIFE WAS HALF NAKED!

 

[Jebus]

Perrey Reeves...

Wow...Just wow.

 

[Mattdotcom]

Someone get some screen caps of that shit.

 

[NoCalMike]

Ari's wifes ASS.....never thought she was smuggling that ba-dunk under her clothes.

Also, on the show's misogyny, it is about a group of normal looking 20-something males who suddenly get rich and move to hollywood etc....I mean is it really unrealistic to think they are going to be all about the partying lifestyle for a little while...especially in a town like hollywood where there is more than enough vapid, air-headed females looking to sleep with a celeb or a friend of a celeb.

[Jaxxxson Mayhem]

Good episode tonight. Seems everyone is getting shitted on by life.

 

[NoCalMike]

Vince's meltdown is interesting. Is this their take on the "hollywood lifestyle" taking it's toll? Will be interesting to see where the Sasha Grey thing goes, according to her twitter she is still in the show up to the finale. Is this confirmed as the final season?

 

[Black Lushus]

HBO just recently announced that there will be one more season next summer...a shortened season with maybe 6 episodes with plans for a feature film to follow.

 

[LuckyLopez]

I like Entourage but I can't think of a single reason why I'd want to see a feature film.

 

[Mattdotcom]

Because the BRAND is strong.

 

[Lord of The Curry]

If Mrs. Ari finally did a nude scene I'd go see the movie for it.
