5 Reasons Why Entourage is Actually Pretty Good This Season

When the news broke last week that next summer would mark the end of Entourage, not many tears were shed. As one Movieline commenter put it: “[It] looks like the free ride is over for these losers.” But a funny thing about that: While everyone has been busy writing Entourage off as crap, the show as risen like a phoenix from the ashes and become… well, pretty good! Shocking, right? Ahead, four reasons why you should think about re-adding the show to yourDVR list.
1. There’s a relevance to what happens on-screen
During the season six premiere last July, Vince appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno (even though Leno left the show May) and Ari was pumped about getting Greg Garcia — of My Name is Earl fame — on board at the agency (My Name is Earl had long since been canceled). A better illustration of the fact that Entourage had become a dusty time capsule was not needed. This season though, things feel a bit more timely. Tonight’s episode will not only feature Puff Daddy hocking his Ciroc vodka (something he does often), but also an entire subplot about Movieline sister site, Deadline, and how it’s used as Hollywood’s de facto homepage (Carrie Fisher guest stars as a Deadline reporter). Hey, it’s better than Earl references. Entourage DVD set
2. There are strong female characters
Entourage has always flirted with having members of the opposite sex butt heads with its merry band of man-children — Debi Mazar’s Shauna, Carla Gugino’s superagent, Amanda — but the show has rarely followed through on any pyrotechnics. But thanks to a reappearance from Amanda, the ball-breaking brilliance of Autumn Reeser’s Lizzie, Perrey Reeves’ always welcome Mrs. Ari and porn star Sasha Grey (as “herself”), season seven of Entourage is kindabalanced. If only Emanuelle Chriqui’s Sloan was more than an excuse for anal sex jokes.
3. Scott Caan struts around the show like a peacock with an erection
Is there an Emmy category for Best Walking? If so, here’s your winner.
4. This line from Rhys Coiro’s now-sobered up Billy Walsh
“I have four [kids]. A set of Irish twins. A set of actual twins. And another one on the way. I thought we could live on love, but tiny kids can’t eat love.” Entourage DVD set
5. Stuff actually happens to Vince
For too long, Entourage has skated by on the fact that nothing ever bad happens to Vince. Even when Medellin bottomed out there was never a sense that the star of Entourage would not rebound. Now? Who knows! He’s a pill-popping mess who doesn’t seem to care. That alone makes Entourage worth watching again. It isn’t Mad Men, but it’s certainly better than Hung. Do with that information what you will.
