USA Today has reported that 3.4 million viewers tuned in for the season’s premiere.
…its biggest total since May 2007, and more than double September’s opener…
What a start! This bodes well for the rest of the season, if this continues we could be seeing it go to Season 10!?!
The New York Times posted what seems be a rather scathing attack, but as you read closer, they just seem to highlight all the things we love about Entourage. The critics seem to just blast whatever is popular to get attention — it has always been their way, and David Itzkoff from The New York Times surely got ours. With the title of the article
‘Entourage,’ So Yesterday
being eluding to the fact that he would heavily critique the show, but instead the content doesn’t really live up to the title. With quotes like this
Much about “Entourage” has stayed exactly the same…
it really cements it as attention-seeking false positive opinions, again highlighting the elements that attract us to become fans. And so what I initially thought was a serious critic, turns out to be a bit of light humor, with David Itzkoff rounding out the article exemplifying 5 “insider” jokes that appear in the episode and ending with a joke about Jeremy Piven actually turning up to work, unlike when he skipped his “Speed-to-plow” show at the Piven Theater due to mercury-poisoning. Haha… Not.
Behind the words I’m sure David really enjoyed Episode 1.
On a side note: We’re hearing whispers that Turtles is getting a Ferrari California! That must be in Episode 3 “One Car, Two Car, Red Car, Blue Car”. What the f*ck has Turtle been up to to score such a ride?! Although there are scenes shot at The California Speedway, so maybe Turtle only gets to ride one there. We’ll have to wait and see!
Mos def lookin’ forward to Episode 2 – “Amongst Friends” now!
