Count me in the 'Not' category of likers. At the end of the episode nothing had changed (Vince wants to be a fireman, Vince can't be a fireman) and there weren't enough laughs to justify the lack of storyline development.

It was the cheap "guys doing drugs and acting ridiculous" storyline that is supposed to be hilarious. This episode and the little fast and the furious stunt a couple episodes with Ari have been super cheap and lazy copouts. Totally out of touch with the mood that has been set of the show.

What a fucking terrible episode, it's the kind of episode that makes you want to stop watching the entire series.

NOTHING has happened this whole season. It's like BSG.

You guys must be high on something. This episode was great.

Drama made E a Peanut Butter and mushroom sandwich. Tell me you didn't laugh at that.

This show has had MANY MANY episodes that didn't move the plot along. I don't see how this episode was any worse than those.

I really don't care about moving the plot along. I care about a show where it's a bunch of guys hanging out, enjoying the fact that they have basically hit the life lottery.

It had some good moments but overall I did feel it was the worst episode of the series.

I like how E claimed they never made a decision only based on money, yet they most certainly filmed that Hong Kong energy drink commercial just for the money.

But yeah I liked the episode...for some reason I thought one of the best parts was that E was unable to speak.

Didn't they do the commercial because it was with a famous director?

I loved the episode. E being unable to speak was hilarious! Anyone who's hallucinated on mushrooms should appreciate this episode. Definitely got it right.

Oh yeah, and it's also funny how, even when they're on Shrooms, Vince makes E do the work of writing down the signs. Sheesh, even when he's trippin, E has to work.

A really pointless episode that didn't move the story along any further, nor did it provide any laughs.

lol...I completely agree with you there.

I would like to point out, that everybody is talking about plot development. I think this show doesn't needs to involve the season plot in every episode. When I started watching entourage in the middle of the first season, it was a show about this superstar named Vincent Chase, and his entourage, not about how he suppose to get his next job. And this episode felt more like season 1 and season 2.


Anyway, I still stand by what I said. This was the best episode ever.
