Entourage: Let's Blog It Out

By Jonathan McCarthy

What a nice, neat, little package HBO delivered in the season finale of "Entourage." That’s not a bad thing, because there is really only one way this season could have ended.

It was a stretch to think that E might ever leave Vince, especially after, as he noted, ‘he took me out of a pizza parlor.’

Jeremy Piven delivered his most out of character performance, as Ari whittled down the relationship between E and Vince, convincing E that Vince will always be his boy.

That, in the end, was the essence of what makes ‘Entourage’ an entourage. Everyone in the group will always be there for each other. Little nuances like ordering ‘breakfast in bed’ and going to Turtle’s rap showcase just highlight that fact.

As the show ended last night I found myself wishing again that the show was 60 minutes instead of 30. It is that good (and ‘The Comeback’ is that bad).

So how does next season start? Here are some suggestions:

- Aquaman flops because Mandy was horrible
- Turtle blows up huge, prompting Drama to beg to be in one of his rap videos
- E dumps Sloan and end up back with James Cameron’s assistant
- Shauna hooks up with Drama (it would be funny)
- Lloyd stars in The Fast and Furious 3
- Ari agrees to star in a reality show about his ‘Comeback’
- Drama goes on The Surreal Life (see above)

Drama, Turtle and E are waiting in the SUV outside James Cameron's office as Vince talks with the director. E is considering taking a job offer with Terrence, the agent who had just fired Ari Gold. Drama and Turtle decide that E is going to take the job.

Then, in classic Drama angst, he says, "I could already see his future. He's going to move in with Sloan, drive her daddy's Bentley and join a country club that restricts us."
