Further Twitter reviews by you:

On a rather random note: One character I’ve been severely missing is Billy Walsh (played by Rhys Coiro), and his last appearance was in The Cannes Kids way back in 2007, and I think we’d all love him to return next season. Maybe we’ll have to do a little recap of Billy Walsh one of these days.

Make sure you catch the Episode 9 ‘Security Briefs’ Preview and remember because it’s the Labor Day Holiday, you’ll have to wait that little bit longer for the next Entourage episode.

In Episode 8, Ari has to deal with Andrew Klein’s domestic disturbances again while under the watchful eye of Babs (Barbara Miller played by Beverly D’Angelo) while Vincent and the boys consider getting a whole security system, and this was really a side story to Ari Gold’s problem of Andrew Klein trying to secure their services for Aaron Sorkin.

Episode 8 ‘The Sorkin Notes’

While that was happening, we got to see Eric’s assistant Brittany again and what a beautiful sight it was to see, why not let them get together! Instead we got Ashley (who not many people rate) returning and Sloan (the rated one!) trying to get him back. I actually like how E screws the ‘friendly cocktails’ with Sloan and decides to go back to his ex. Albeit I don’t love Ashley as much as Sloan, but E’s fuckin’ cool for being decisive for a change, plus he’s getting some at the end of the day. Ashley is someone I’m still not 100% convinced by but for some reason or another, she’s beginning to be a bit more likable.

Not so sure about Andrew Klein, the pathetic one, when will this ever end? Since Andrew Klein is in the big house, maybe it has? Will this be the time Lizzie Grant will gain some attention of her own? She has fuckin’ great potential to become a super agent like Ari, especially when she stands up to the mighty Ari Gold – definitely a turn on. And of course let’s not forget this episode guest starred Aaron Sorkin. He was fuckin’ funny, especially when he threw down the hate for Ari and Babs as soon as they entered the conference room.

The Stalker
Episode 8 ‘The Sorkin Notes’

When the Security team that Vincent pretty much decides to hire discover a driver’s license belonging to a Wisconsin Carrot-Top that goes by the name ‘Curtis Tucker’, we understand their paranoia, he looked like a fuckin’ psychopath. Unfortunately we’re going to have to have a little break from this season next weekend because of the holiday so we’ll have to wait for Drama to unleash his fury on the psychopath one more week, so I’ll leave you with the pick of the twitter reviews (twiviews) and the music from Entourage Episode 8 which was in abundance this time ’round. And hopefully some new Entourage-related videos will pop up in the mean time. Peace.

The ‘Twiviews’:

The music:

• “Nightclubbing” by Grace Jones
  [Ari finds Andrew on his office couch]
• “The Milkman” by Eric Hachikian
  [Andrew leaves Ari's office, while boys talk Security]
• “Live Fast Die Young” by The Circle Jerks
  [Drama Security Drills]
• “Black Sea” by Testo
  [Phone Talk: Sloan+Eric]
• “4-23″ by Aqua
  [Cocktails with Sloan or Sex with Ashley?]
• “Addictive” by Cut Chemist
  [E sees Sloan while phone talk with Ashley]
• “E.I.” by Nelly
  [Ari and Aaron Sorkin visiting Andrew Klein in Jail]
• “Bang” by Rye Rye featuring MIA
  [E and Ashley warm up]
• “Sunrise” by Yeasayer
  [End Credits]

Ari: What are you doing buddy?
Son: I’m waking you up with my mind!
Ari: Good work!

This really has to be crowned one of my favorite scenes and really started this five star Ari Gold episode.

Murphy’s Lie, was really Ari’s Law.
The boys are cruising while Ari was just made peacemaker.

E’s little apology was fuckin’ pathetic. That whole apology scene topped the vomitus moments between Sloan and Turtle in the first couple of episodes. Eric needs to get on with it! Can’t believe Ashley dumped him, should’ve been the other way round, although it would have to be Eric to get dumped like that.

Vince’s little escapade with another student hotty (UPDATE: it’s actually Tiffany Brouwer!, thanks Ana Lucasey..you’re all so hot! tssss!) and the dejavu pick-up line of ‘I’ve got 45 minutes to class, you wanna hang?’ working like a fuckin’ charm, pun intended. That was gold. And the fact that he was part of a sex tape was another wicked moment. Let’s hope it gets released in the show and is part of the storyline, maybe even have Paris Hilton giving our Vinnie some advice?!

Matt Letscher guest starring as the studio exec Dan Coakley (Koglin?!) was scary, he was one nasty son of a gun and don’t forget Steve Nash’s cameo, he looked like some mad rocker Ñ cool as.

As I said earlier, this was an Ari Gold five star episode. With quotes and quotes from Ari, it really needs no description:

Lizzie Grant: I was out working.
Ari Gold: Working who?
Lizzie Grant: Jon Stamos, and I signed him!
Ari Gold: With his pen or his cock?

You so much as eye fuck another agent in this building, I will deport you naked to the Taliban
Ari Gold to Lizzie

One in very few guys get that ‘have a Free Piece of Pussy Pass’, you my friend have it!
Ari Gold to Andrew Klein

I thought Drama and Jamie-lynn’s kissing scene was a bit of a downer since we knew it was going to happen last week, no doubt it was funny especially Turtle’s reaction, but otherwise it was just a bit ‘meh’. I think Vincent visiting college with Turtle was definitely more entertaining!

And now for rather limited music selection featured in this episode:

• “It’s a feast” by Shawn Anthony
  [Vince, Turtle drive into UCLA]
• “Going Steady ” by Death From Above 1979
  [Drama looking for Dan Coakley]
• “Les Sauvages” by Les Sans Culottes
  [Vince in Dorm Room making the Sex Video]
• “Reservoir Park” by The Dutchess & The Duke
  [End Credits]

The pick of the ‘twiviews’:

Vincent Chase & E on an ‘extended vacation’
Season 6, Episode 4 ‘Running on E’

This is the first episode directed by Ken Whittingham this season, so whether there was a difference because of him? I don’t know, but it sure was the best this season. With Vincent Chase again taking a bit of a back seat because his Enzo movie being delayed by 12 weeks, an extended vacation ensues. He tries his best to get E, Turtle and Drama to join him, but ends up with no one, albeit for a few hours till Eric decides to pull the plug on his business – The Murphy Group. This was disappointing, but does it really mean the end of E’s Murphy Group? Or just the office it was residing in? It would be a shame for E and Entourage to lose the Charlie storyline, as it was quite cool to have another up-and-coming star in the midst.

Ari Gold was trying to handle a barrage of situations from all sides, it was an Ari juggling act.. under pressure Ari is when he is at his best! Dealing with Andrew Klein was great, but even better was his face off with Andrew’s lover — Lizzie Grant, the junior agent at the Miller Gold Agency (played by Autumn Reeser). Damn girl, she’s one tough women! Is she a future threat to Ari?

The music featured was way fuckin’ cool, especially if you caught the tunes of Daft Punk, and the new crew Empire Of The Sun — Check out their awesome video clip above. Awesome job, music people! Here’s the list:

• “Easin’ In” by Edwin Starr
  [E bored at the Murphy Group]
• “Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop” by Young Gunz
  [E getting it on with Ashley, Drama with the models]
• “Black Flag” by Duchess Says
  [Ari finds Andrew Klein balling]
• “Something About Us” by Daft Punk [Boys reminiscing the day]
• “Standing on the Shore” by Empire of the Sun
  [Final Scene]

Vincent Chase going on Facebook and stalkin’ his old classmates (Kimberley Kirsch?!)was classic. E announcing his relationship with Ashley being ‘serious’ was another predictable disappointment. Turtle getting dressed up by Jamie-Lynn was vomitus, but funny at the same time — the usual thing to do when you have a girlfriend. And how about David Schwimmer? Not the dorkus he usually is aye? He was after Lizzie, and that was more of classic Entourage. And how can we miss Johnny Drama’s casting with all those fuckin’ hot models! And when Ed Burns mentions how Drama has 25 takes with one of them, that was incredibly hilarious. There was also a bit of Mrs. Gold in there for good measure. All the ingredients and reasons why we love Entourage and why this episode was so good. We want more! …How did you rate it?

Season 6, Episode 2 ‘Amongst Friends’
Stunning Sloan and E.

Eric was in his usual spin with the girls (usual for season six so far, a trend perhaps), and this episode definitely showed off his own skills with the ladies, or lack there of, and it was complete with awkward situations. And even though awkward E should really chase Sloan, she was absolutely stunning at the premiere, but he should definitely hold on to his neighbor, Ashley (played by Alexis Dziena…tsss) and whoever else! Why stop at one?! yeeeeah baby.

Ari dealing with Andrew Klein was classic, and their meeting with the new clients was hilarious, I loved how Ari was on his own best behavior and trying to take control of the situation. Andrew Klein definitely has good eyesight, the girl he’s fucking is so totally worth it. This storyline will be interesting to see develop. By the way if you missed her, she is Autumn Reeser and I hope we see more of her. Turtle and Jamie-Lynn were just that cute couple, getting a bit vomitus to be completely honest, but this is needed from time to time.

The woman playing Vinnie’s love interest or rather fuck-buddy was actually Miss Israel 2004, another beauty which this episode had a lot of, and let’s not forget Drama!, he was lucky to score Miss Azita Ghanizada. Although there were plenty of girls, I think we all would’ve enjoyed a bit more flesh, and maybe some extra adult laughs like when Turtle and Drama revealed that they accidentally ‘crossed swords’ in Season 2, Episode 7 – ‘The Sundance Kids’. It almost happened again when Drama’s girl invited E for a threesome. Funny shit. It was a real classic Entourage episode, with all the right ingredients to set the tone for the rest of the season.

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.
