Review: ‘Entourage’ Season 6 Episode 1
It’s been a year since we last saw the boys of Entourage and it seems that time has been kind to them. Vince has a good movie under his belt for the first time in a long time, Drama is still a cast member on a hit TV show, Turtle is some how still dating Jamie-Lynn Sigler and E has been getting lucky with several girls, but still holds a candle for his old girlfriend Sloan.
The episode is all about growth, and I’m sure the entire season will be as well. Ari is working with his new partner, but now Lloyd wants a promotion. E hasn’t been away from Vince since they moved out to LA together but Sloan tries to push him to sublet a house from her friend, Drama has moved out long ago, and Turtle is always spending the night at Jamie-Lynn’s place. If E actually moves into this place, it’ll leave Vince all alone in the house that they first bought years ago (whic they had moved back into during the off season).
The episode is good with a few good laughs, but mostly sets up the ideas of what the next season is going to be about. Vince’s real growth is that finally, at nearly the age of thirty, he’s getting his Driver’s license. This really shows that he truly is a man-boy with zero real responsibility. He doesn’t know how to live a grown up life. There are also subtle hints that Ari’s new partner may start to drag him down a bit.
This is far from the strongest writing we’ve seen on the series, but it’s a nice change. Seeing the boys all on truly different life paths is kind of nice. It really makes me think that this could be the last year we see Vince and the crew together. Vince’s new film about Enzo Ferrari is pretty cool too. Here’s hoping we see some sweet cars.
It seems like finally this season you will get more into the lives of the other cast members, not just Vince, and E. I don't like how out of nowhere from last season's end to now he is back on top as this huge movie star when 2 episodes ago we thought he was done with acting. Seems like there's a lot that they skipped over from last season to now.
@Craig-
It's been a year and that actually happens with a lot of young actors. You make a really bad movie, and no one wants to touch you for a while, and then Scorsese asks you to be in his film and you're back on top.
If you look at it from the idea that it's Mark Wahlberg's career (or some ideas parallel it) then picture this as when he did Planet of the Apes through The Truth About Charlie. Around that time people were like "no way is this kid going anywhere". Then he got lucky with Italian Job and was back on top. Since then he's picked his projects a little better (slipped up here and there), but it happens to a lot of actors.
Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
Worthless for the survey, but I’m rattling loverly the new Zune, and hope this, as symptomless as the reviews whatever added score typed, module ameliorate you determine if it’s the paw prize for you.
link:link:The article was very informative. I have been following the Aquada story for many years and I drive an amphibious dukw boat for a living.I really think that an amphibious motorcycle could be engineered much easier and cheaper than a car. Maybe then some of us average income folks might have a chance to have a really fun vehicle.
