TV Review: Entourage Returns With "Aquamom"

if (preg_match('/]+)?>/', '') { echo '

' } else { echo 'I've missed Entourage during hiatus and now embrace its reture with more joy than I can possibly express in writing. HBO has certainly struck gold with this series. They bring us interesting characters, compelling stories, and let's face it, lots of luscious beefcake. Really, the writing is top-notch, the actors are perfectly cast, and the stories are more fun than any roller coaster at any Six Flags park (but without the long lines or anyone throwing up on you).

Things have changed since the end of season two.

Smarmy agent Ari, fired from the big time talent agency last season, has pulled himself up by his bootstraps and is back in the game. He's set up in his own office (complete with broken elevator, much to the chagrin of his clients), preparing for Vince's big movie premiere, and juggling enough clients to make him feel like a big shot again. He's not, but at least he thinks he's on his way.

Vince went on to make Aquaman with James Cameron and now needs to find a "premiere worthy" date for that walk across the red carpet. Turtle and Drama are handing out tickets to the event to every hot chick they see (we're talking 50 tickets, folks), exhausting their supply a little too early. Remember that point. Trust me. For all the pimping Turtle and Drama are doing, nothing's working for Vince. He quickly comes to the conclusion there's only one woman who should walk the carpet with him: his mother.

There's a problem with this choice, though. You see, Mrs. Chase has never been to either of her sons' (that would be Vince and Johnny "Drama" Chase, for those of you with quizzical looks, and that includes the very pregnant publicist Shauna) premieres. Granted, Aquaman is THE CAREER-MAKING movie premiere for Vince, but still... When cornered by a DJ on live radio, though, Mrs. Chase gives in and agrees to make the trip despite her loathing of travel. This sets Vince off on the search for the perfect gown and jewelry for his mom.

    Great write up Joan!

    I was thinking of writing a post on the show yesterday, but didn't. (Maybe I still will?)

    Anyway, fun times!

    Definitely write it up, MKW!

    And to quote Ari, "Let's hug it out, bitch"

    So much love for this show! Glad to find another fan. (I always feel so alone until someone else shows up)

    Great review! Entourage is easily the BEST show on television.
