Re: Entourage - "Buzzed" - 7/11/10

What I liked:

-Bob Saget-hilarious!

-Autumn Reeser-

-This show still manages to end with the perfect music after all these years

Disliked:
-Pretty much everything else. I am not digging the new Vince storyline at all. The NFL thing seems tacked on, and they just explained Andrew's absence as an afterthought.

Good episode. Saget of course was fucking gold! Speaking of gold... LA Golds??

I miss the Ari/Lloyd comedy duo..having him as an actual agent isnt as enjoyable.

Maria Menounos was the star of the episode.

When did this show turn into a drama?? Geez, two episodes with very few funny lines. I don't know it just seems like these episodes have lost something that it possessed before. The jokes use to flow throughout the show, and I honestly only laughed at Bob Sagets lines tonight.

And Maria Menounos is hot!

The show itself has been meh for the past few seasons. All it has anymore is Ari. Vince is dull. E is terrible. Drama is at least passable. The only reason I even watch is because its just popcorn TV. Personally I can't believe they keep bringing it back.

How much money does Ari have? He just dropped high 8 figures to buy-out Terrence and now he's going to become at least part-owner of an NFL franchise.

Sucks that Andrew is gone, he was doing fine at the end of last season.

The show is much worse than the first couple seasons. It's still worth my time but there has been a noticeable shift away from comedy and towards drama, which doesn't suit the show.

But yes she is attractive and she also comes off as a very cool girl as well.
I still watch it because I watched it from the very beginning but it as you said it has not been good for a while. I kind of wish they would hurry up and end it pretty soon.

Same here. We already invested so much time into it it's tough to just get out cold turkey. For me it seems like I'm almost obligated to see it through. Ari and some of the random cameos help in that regard but overall not too good.

Did Caan and Grenier actually jump out of that plane?

If not, it was a seamless special effect.

No, the wide angle of Vince talking on the phone with E (looking towards the rear of the plane) is clearly a green screen shot. The insurance liability issues alone make an actual actor stunt like this cost prohibitive.

Are you saying that a stuntman, not Adrian Grenier, was driving when Vince decided to make the jump instead of a stuntman? They pretended to take out the pretend stuntman only to slip in a real one?



The show is sliding a bit, especially after last season. And with Eric engaged to Sloan, she should be on every episode giving the evil eye to Kate Mara as E's assistant.

I assume they want Ari to put together a investment group and lead that group because I'm sure he doesn't have anywhere near close $500M lying around which is what it would probably take to have a 51% stake in a L.A. expansion team.

However, I always thought the NFL ownership rule was that 51% of the ownership (and the money) had to be vested in one person. But maybe that's changed.


And I agree with those who said Maria Menounos was the star - so hot.

Autumn Reeser looked good, but I prefer her with longer hair; not sure about the new color either.

I watched it a few times, and you're right--very well done.

Re: Entourage - "Buzzed" - 7/11/10

another meh episode! The cameos were good.. but if the biggest plot points we are going to have this season is that Vince cut his hair, and is spending his free time having fun - - then this is going to be one boring summer.

I thought this was better than the last episode but Im not sure how its going to end. I thought it was perfect the way last season ended, it could have been the series?

Oh and if E and Sloan are engaged, then where the hell is she? Shes gotta pop up soon right?

This episode took place over the course of a couple hours on a work day, Sloane isn't going to be with E 24/7.

Re: Entourage - "Buzzed" - 7/11/10

Oh man, this was one of the worst episodes of recent memory. I didn't care about Turtle's relationship with his ex-driver last week, and this week was even worse. AND it's going to continue.
Thrill-junkie Vince? That's just an attempt to make a very bland character interesting. That stunt crap angst from last week was done better by Burt Reynolds 30 years ago.
I usually love Drama, but all these years later it's just the same thing over and over with him.
And why isn't Ari reaming his new assistant like he did with Lloyd?
