Running On E is the name of tonight’s episode, the fourth of Season 6, as you all know from the preview. We have to be pumped for this episode, this will have ladies galore! It is still amazing that such a chilled out show as this can have the harshest critics. In our cross-hairs today is Paige Newman’s article entitled “Ready to abandon Entourage”. This means War – let us unleash!
Paige has some rather bizarre points to reason why she is ‘abandoning’ Entourage such as
The show’s sense of fantasy fun was lost and reality took over.

C’mon girl, a bit of a reality check was a must for the characters. You must not have watched the series from the beginning? Unfortunately Paige, Entourage does have a story line that has developed over that past few seasons and subsequently there are high’s and low’s.
In this economy, there’s just something distasteful about openly flaunting that kind of wealth.
You didn’t really say that did you?! Complaining about the drop to reality for the characters, and now there’s a problem that Vincent Chase is splurging his wealth? Usually when times are depressing, we as humans love to have a little escapism via our fuckin’ television sets and HBO has provided us with the ideal entertainer through this great series.
And your little jibe about Entourage Season 6 being “behind the times” is a bit overboard. I see you recognize that they are shot in advance but please, cut them a little slack. Seeing Jay Leno is not such a freakin’ biggie, he has his fans, and I’m sure they loved it. And perhaps ‘Earl’ being mentioned was a little homage to them?! possible? no!? But once you start ripping into the main characters, is where I become incensed. It’s just fuckin’ low. So let’s see what you say:
“Vince seems more vacant than ever”
Have you not noticed that when series progress, people like to see what’s happening to the other characters? Plus we’re not even half way through the fuckin’ season.
“Drama, frankly, seems like an idiot”
Seems like it? He’s always been like this, and that’s why everyone loves him. With lines like this, who wouldn’t have him as an Emmy nominee? Paige, only started to watch last season or sumthin?
“Turtle, with his happy relationship and his Vince envy, is just plain dull.”
OK, finally. I can kind of agree on this one. But there has to be at least something you don’t like – if everything was perfect, it would be boring.
“And Eric, we are supposed to believe, is suddenly a ladies’ man. Really?”
With success in Hollywood, comes moolah and the women. Women’s attraction to power and authority has frequently been exemplified within the TV and Film industries. They come to E, not the other way round.
Paige, you are just lucky you didn’t rip into our Ari. Ehem, thank you.
On a happier note a belated Happy Birthday to our man Jeremy Piven! Who turned the great age of 44 last Sunday! Hip hip hooray! (Check out his Twitter for some awesome behind-the-scenes photos that he has kindly posted up for all his tweeps to see!)
