"Berried Alive"

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

And here's where everybody screws their shit up.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

I hope everyone doesn't screw up. I like the whole aspect of the guys making it on their own and not just doing the whole "frat house" thing with Vince.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Best episode of the season. I have to say that this was one of the few times that the storyline kept me riveted, and the comedy was secondary, as it is always the other way around.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

only 2 more left after this?

this has got to be the least eventful season yet

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

It seems like these Entourage threads get less and less replies every week. Has the show jumped the shark yet? I haven't watched it in quite a few years but I got bored after Season 3 or so.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Solid episode.

Should be an interesting final 2 episodes. It's pretty obvious Drama isn't going to get Melrose and Lloyd is going to get fucked over somehow.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

I still enjoy the show -- I just have nothing to say (although I remain bemused about the constant complaints that nothing happens on the show. Are you people expecting an episode where Johnny Drama gets killed or something?)

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

it certainly hasn't jumped the shark... it just hasn't been very eventful as of late. I still like the show, and it's still good... it just doesnt have the same "umph" it once did.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Not at all... it's just that typically the seasons revolved around Vince and a movie. This season we haven't seen any of that. It's been all E/Ashley/Sloan and a plot-line about a new character that nobody cares about and him cheating on his wife.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

First the 'Ross calling Emily, Rachel' with E and Ashley and now 'Rachel moving to France' with Turtle and Jamie... Either the writers are big fans or I've been watching too much Friends with the Mrs.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

:lol:

Although I did like the turn the Ashley storyline took this episode. I have never had a problem with this plot like most people though. The fight in the restaurant where Ashley looked ready to completely snap was great. I kept expecting her to come running out and tackle E while he was on the phone with his assistant.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Same here. As with most comedies, there's not much to discuss.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Turtle's coed stalker is very easy on the eyes.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

She is but wtf is he having consternation about? He's f'ing Meadow Soprano who's been nothing but great to him. I'd get it if she'd been treating him like a sub-human. As it stands, he's the biggest idiot ever if he ends up wrecking this relationship because some cute little skirt is walking by him.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

I understand some of the complaints about this being an uneventful season, but I've actually been fairly pleased with it. I have kind of liked that it hasn't been the standard Entourage season, especially since this season didn't end up becoming about making a movie with Scorsese. The one big misstep this season for me was all the time devoted to Ari's agent friend.

It's been so long since I saw season 1, wasn't it similar in nature to this season? I'm just meaning that it was more lazy in nature, that it was more about Vince and the guys hanging out rather than a movie. I know the other guys' plotlines weren't as big that first season.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Yes, indeed.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

I thought Ari's change of heart on letting Drama go was a stretch. In the space of a 20-something minute episode he goes from "DIE LLOYD!" to OK, Lloyd can win. C'mon.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

definetely the best episode of the season, but possibly too little, too late. again, worst season so far, but now it feels like its trying to redeem itself at the end.

agreed w/ Nefarious. turtle is w/ meadow, there should be no second guessing or confusion there! haha no college girl compares to meadow! haha

im glad the ashley angle is (hopefully) over now, i like the way it was ended at the restaurant.

the whole lloyd/ari/drama was done well too. lloyd screaming yippe-kay ay motherfucker had me rotfl !

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

I don't think Ari was letting Lloyd win in slightest. I think he knows Drama isn't worth a damn in the talent department and figures no better way to fuck over Lloyd that having his one client be someone nobody will hire. I figure Drama either won't get the part on Melrose or it will turn out to be a short walk on for one ep or so.
I too hope Turtle doesn't mess up his relationship with Jamie-Lynn. She treats him like royalty, and looks fine. I will say that this episode's theme seemed to be about commitment in both personal and professional relationships, and what people will do to preserve them. It also made women look like people who are possessive and paranoid about their men and want to make others jealous.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Plus he doesn't to fuck up his relationship with Vince.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

I think it's more because, when he really stops his high-powered agent act, we've seen him be very emotional when it comes to the whole group. He's said Vince is the only client he considered a friend, he's sat down and had heart to hearts with Turtle and E already, and he would like to see Drama succeed as well.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Hell, Ari told Drama after he let him go to tell Lloyd that he's gunning for him. Ari is not going to let Lloyd get away with leaving this easily. But Ari isn't going to devote any real time for Drama. He knows that. Might as well let him go, keep Vince happy. It's not like Johnny Chase is going to bring big money into the agency.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

I thought with Lloyd leaving, Ari would realize he was a real prick and that he needs Lloyd at Miller/Gold. Now, it doesnt seem that way at all.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

That's real life for ya. Just because someone is with a good looking girl who treats them well doesn't mean they aren't going to be tempted by another good looking girl.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

"There is no better pussy than NEW pussy."

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

You're right, but this is the first time Turtle has had 2 girls pursue him, let alone two hot girls! Turtle is utterly flattered this hotty is going after him, not realizing that she likes him because he is Meadows boyfriend, and then once she saw him next to Vince, she liked him even more. As Chris Rock once said, "You are only as faithful as your options...."

As for Ari letting go of Drama, he knows Drama isn't going anywhere, and Lloyd can essentially have his 'B' talent. If Lloyd was gunning for Vince, then Ari would have put the smackdown on him, but if Lloyd's client base is a bunch of Johnny Drama's, then he won't last that long.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

I will say that I was surprised Ari treated Lloyd so harshly last week; Lloyd left the agency when Ari got fired (by Terrance who will be returning next week, coincidentally), and Ari has always treated him somewhat respectable in the past (for Ari anyway). I think Lloyd should have just kept his mouth shut instead of asking Ari about the 100 days, but tried to leverage for better treatment.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Anyone think that some of E's possessions will be trashed or have been trashed by the time we get to the next episode? Glad she's gone, but they're still neighbors.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Too bad the whole season wasn't like this episode. It finally starts to deliver and now it's almost over.

Also, I thinks the Drama/Ari moment was meant to show Ari cared more about giving Drama his best chance to succeed than burning Lloyd, and he knew he couldn't truly give him that, so as a friend he gave him true advice and stepped back and let him go.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Wait, they're not? :hscratch:

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

I wouldn't be surprised. That chick is CRAZY with a capital C. I've loved this season so far. The other agent storyline sucked, but I could at least deal with it. I could not deal with Ashley though. Between her and Dom, I'd take 2 straight seasons with Dom rather than any more episodes with Ashley. I don't think I've ever watched Entourage before and seen one of the actresses in her underwear and actually wanted to barf. First time for everything after this episode. I hope she's gone for good.

As for Turtle, you can't really blame the guy. Meadow is awesome. Treats him great and she's very good looking. However, the co-ed is better looking. He'd be a fool to actually screw up his relationship but you can't blame the guy for being conflicted about a hotter girl even if his girlfriend is actually the better choice.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

That was the best show of the season.

Turtle may not want to mess it up but it seems that Jamie-Lynn will either break up with him or they'll try (and probably fail) at the long distance relationship. Drama getting out of 5 towns will be a big mistake for sure as he either won't get the role in Melrose or will it will tank. As for Ashley, well I thought she was (the actress) was fantastic in this episode, she really did look crazy. I'm still waiting for the cat fight, looks like it might be between her and the assistant or a friend rather than against Sloan.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

That confused me a little - didn't she (and her friends) already know that he lived with Vincent since her sorority did that underwear raid?

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Well, I think we know what the cliffhanger will be. (at least one of them)

Will Turtle go with Jamie to New Zealand, or stay with Vince and the boys.

I could also see Ashley doing something either E or his assistant.

Drama will NOT get the melrose place job, leaving him with nothing.

Not sure what will happen to Vince.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

red dog your right

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Yeah I have a feeling everything will be f-ed up at the end of this season, but all will be well by the start of next season.

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

Don't know too many guys, do ya?

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

"No matter how hot a girl is, somewhere there's a guy tired of f***ing her."

Any chance Drama doesn't get the new Melrose job, but all the terrible work he's been forced to do over the past few episodes gets him enough positive praise to earn him something better?

Re: Entourage - "Berried Alive" - 9/20/09
 

You all are completely distorting my comments. All I said was that Turtle would be a fucking idiot to wreck things with Jamie Lynn. She's been very supportive of him and his friends (Drama; Vince). She bought him a freaking Porsche for his birthday and has encouraged him to follow his dreams.

But I get it, all you bad-ass, pussy gettin' mofos would just bang 'em all. Turtle is not a real man unless he's completely inebriated over the thought of a dime-a-dozen hot chick. He should totally do whatever he can to get in her panties.
