Entourage 5/2: The Ari Gold Mine
Way back in the day when this Entourage blog began (midway through Season 2, to be precise), I've been a huge proponent of character and plot evolution.
It's the most crucial element of creating a successful, long-running television show. And I've tried to do the same with this blog, adding Writer Props in Season 3.5 along with the Joshie Awards.
Well, for Season 5, I've decided to create the Ari Gold Mine, a weekly salute to our favorite Ari Gold scene. Of course, this begins in Week 2 instead of Week 1 (hey, the last three weeks have been insane for me at work so don't hate on me), but we'll double back midweek and submit for your perusal the Week 1 Ari Gold Mine (AGM).
While the Best Printable Line rules were established to give other characters a chance to compete with Ari each week in the race for the Big Knish, we are not bound by any such language rules when it comes to the AGM (although, we can't necessarily give precise dialogue in some instances).
Ari's rants on E and his work on the golf course this week were strong, but the Ari Gold Mine goes to his work in the screening room. Telling Lloyd to pull the plug on the projector and then screaming to have someone fix it was hilarious. Classic Ari Gold.
I'm still laughing about it, and just might pull the plug on the projector the next time I score an invite to a movie screener, if only to do it and write about it here.

I'm going to use that line at my next Powerpoint presentation.
I love Ari's rants and raves, but this week my favorite part was the sit down with Vince. When he told him he didn't know if he'd be ok. Also when he said that's yet to be determined if he was a good actor or not.
