Vincent wins on Turtle’s Birthday
Season 6, Episode 3 ‘One Car, Two Car, Red Car, Blue Car’

Ari has an awesome father-son talk with Turtle, and the advice he gives to E with the subsequent laughter is just awesome. Ari Gold has reached the top, and I think he’s almost tipping the ‘too nice’ point. Nasty Ari will have to unleash soon.

We were all happy to see Charlie in action again, but not under these circumstances, perhaps Charlie just needs to ‘pay his dues’ as Ari Gold says to Turtle. Hopefully he’ll bounce back as the series goes on. I can really see Vinnie becoming Charlie’s mentor.

Don’t Be Somber, At Least You Look Good
— 50 Cent, to Turtle

The show has also been focusing a lot on E and how he’s actually becoming his own man — being the producer he onced dreamed of, and we really love it. Although one character trait that really f*cks things up for him, is his need to be in a relationship. E needs to KEEP PLAYIN’ THE FIELD! C’mon dude, it was supposed to be a one-nighter and now she’s giving you advice about your show?! Damn girl, put some pants on!

Turtle and his b’day gift: A Ferrari California.
Season 6, Episode 3 ‘One Car, Two Car, Red Car, Blue Car’

Would be nice to see Eric steal some of Vince’s thunder, by becoming a successful producer/agent, and get the girls to chase him. I heard rumors about a famous director who used to hand out business cards to single women whilst in LA’s infamous bumper to bumper traffic. And he’d score more than a couple of visits the same night. This has to be Eric ‘E’ Murphy one day.

All in all, a good episode, not the best so far, probably rank it 3rd for Season 6. Kind of getting tired of Turtle and Jamie-Lynn (Vomitus?). Would love to see Ashley go and E getting Sloan jealous once again. And it’s about time Drama and Vin did some real work…haha… My fingers are crossed we get to see a bit more ‘Enzo: The Movie’ in the making.

Let’s not forget the hot Alicia Silverstone look-a-like Janet Varney, who plays Amy Miller, Eric’s studio exec (also seen in reDOMption). Hopefully E does her soon.

Time for the music:

Season 6, Episode 1 ‘Drive’
Vincent Chase, lonely…

The ‘Drive’ was a great reintroduction to all our favorite Entourage themes and relationships, Vincent still scoring beautiful women, Drama and his usual antagonism, Ari Gold putting down Lloyd etc. It also had new confrontations that will be intriguing to see over the course of the season with Lloyd “strong-arming” Ari, and as a result Ari giving him 100 days to prove his worth as an agent (is that right?) and E’s on-going love saga with Sloan.

You either owe me an apology or a blow job, your choice!
— Ari Gold, to Babbs

In the final scenes we see Vinnie on the couch by himself in his mansion, a rather bittersweet moment. And so Vincent being lonely will definitely be something to watch develop and surely struggle with, as E moves out, Drama working at his night-shoots, and Turtle hanging out with Jamie-Lynn — it is also quite a pertinent time to showcase such a theme.

Also featured was another great soundtrack, true to the Entourage formula that we know and love, check the music out:

Overall, was an excellent episode to bring us back to where we left off. We’re definitely f*ckin’ looking forward to next weeks Episode 2 ‘Amongst Friends’. What did you all think? I challenge you all to describe this episode in two words: I would say “F*ckin’ Awesome”. On a rather sad note, this episode was dedicated to Kevin Connolly’s late mother, Eileen Connolly, who died on 1st March, 2009. Condolences from us to you Kevin.

The second video involving Turtle’s mini-obsession over Seth Rogan, hilarious stuff… a lot of banter going back and forth just like the good ol’ days.

A rather glowing review of the opening episodes has come in thanks to The Kansas City Star:

Vince and the boys are welcome in my living room again.

Aaron Barnhart really seemed to enjoy the Episode 1 “Drive”, and his review really gets the back of my neck tingling! Out of the previous rather depressing reviews, it was with hesitation that I kept looking for more, possibly afraid that it would be a bomb?! But ofcourse it wasn’t long till the critics were singing praises. Obviously the others were just doing it to get a little limelight of their own. It is f*ckin’ awesome to hear when a critic reviews the episode positively and cements Entourage as the best with quotes like this:

…this season moves smoothly into overdrive.

In rather odd news, an Australian Free-to-air channel — SBS, has bought the rights to show Entourage to the masses. What’s odd about it is that they are showing Season 1, about 5 years late, and most Aussies would’ve already watched in on their cable channels or DVD. Bizarre. The only reason would have to be because it’s obviously a money-maker.
