ENTOURAGE (2 Viewers)

Very, VERY solid episode.

After a rough patch, Vince gets in a Scorsese movie, Johnny Drama buys a bar, and Turtle gets busted having phone sex with Jamie-Lynn.

Just in time to keep us hanging until summer. :scared:
:lmao: That was hysterical. Turtle's Mom was a riot. I remember a few Moms like that when I was growing up in Brooklyn. They were always in a robe/housecoat and always screaming at their kids. :lmao:
 
And who else thought the whoel Turtle/meadow Soprano thing was not even remotely possible in real life.
Guys, come on ... did you not renew your subscription to US Weekly? Unbelievable as it might sound, Turtle and Jaime Lynn are together in real life. Geez ..
 
:CantBelieveINeverBlackDottedThisThread:

I'lljust add that one of the most entertaining parts of this show is how most actors

(besides the Scorcese-type quick, professional phone call cameo) seem to have

a blast playing a real mean/selfish/#####-ish version of themself on the show.

I'd think it would be a total blast. And I wonder for which actors that version of

themself is actually not a stretch at all...

To be fair, Jamie Lynn is hooking up in real life with Jerry Ferrara, an actor on a hit television series.
 
I thought it was a very good finale and a quality season. Vince's career has bounced around and now it looks to be getting back on track. Can't wait to see how they do next season. Do you think they will skip right to Vince filming the Scorcese film?

Thats my point, of course in real life Seth Rogen can land a real hottie and Turtle can get a Jamie Lynn Sigler, but on the show Turtle is a real loser, with no job and no money.Why the hell would she hook up with him is silly

I don't think it is that big of a stretch . . . he does hang out in the same places, he is reasonably well connected in hollywood, he knows how to keep his stash supplied, I could see an actress "slumming" it with a Turtle-type guy.

hes not though, hes part of the entourage, hangs with cool people and goes to cool places, thats all he needs.
 
I would have liked them at least hold the E-Vinny thing out till next year..

they got back in the sack way too quickly for my liking

Agreed. On one hand, I have to admit, I was happy everything was good again, but it did seem to be wrapped up way too quickly there at the end. Even if they would have just had the Scorcese thing but drug the E-thing into next year that would have somehow seemed more real. This was just a little too storybookish. I remember reading a Sports Guy column years ago where he said eventually the show would have to be about "E" and his career, etc. I thought that is where they were going to go towards the end, but I guess not by the time the credits rolled.

I'm not so sure it won't end up somewhat like that next seasonThe Scorcese movie is going to be shot in NYC, and Eric's career in LA is starting to get some momentumI could see Eric on the West Coast as they shoot the movie
 
i'm disapointed how quickly they turned vince's career around. goes from the bottom to the top in less than 1 episode? turtle getting busted by his mom may have made up for it though.
This show is now so far from realistic which is sad because the writers really have a good base to work from. So someone who was the star of the biggest grossing film of all time can quickly not find work / bit parts? Not likely since you still see stars who can't bankroll films still get to star in them. Turtle dating Meadow? Not likely.So now Vince can't get squat but the biggest director loves him and Gus also likes him? Come on guys, when was the last time Martin casted a down on his luck, nobody wants to hire, actor in a lead film?
 
Liked the finale, they ended up on a happy note like they had to after the rough year they all had.

PS since when did E have his whole office with a working staff?

And who else thought the whoel Turtle/meadow Soprano thing was not even remotely possible in real life. Knocked up with Seth Rogen and that blond babe was more probable
I've seen some extremely hot chicks with some off-the-charts dooshy guys in my life. It's not that improbable. And it's not new, either.
Show me a link of a guy who looks like Turtle/not in the business w/o a job who landed a star who most guys find hot.

Yeah!if I want to watch realism, I'll watch The Shield.

I agree. I thought they should have let that be the central "cliffhanger" for next season. Eric says no to Vince's offer to return but how long will that be the case? The fact they already had done the Vince-Eric Tension thing much much much better at the end of Season 2 (and even at the end of Season 1) might have been more palatable if they came up with something more daring at the end. I still think it's a great show and I still love it. But this was the weakest of the seasons to date.

That's the thing, this show could be way more realistic and great at the same time. It's not like we are watching the Terminator show. Also wouldn't it be realistic to see these guys with way more chicks? They talk about it but always hanging out w/o them or barely. Regular guys shouldn't watch the show and think I can pull more wool than these guys.
 
Who else played back (about 20 times) Jamie Lynn talking about what was in her mouth......

Never thought I'd hear Meadow Soprano talk like that. Such a dirty, dirty girl.

:popcorn:

 
The highlight of the season was finding out that the undercover cop that arrested Ajax in the Warriors is Vince and Johnny Chase's mother.

The show sucked this year. Vince Chase hanging in a tree whining like a little beaoitch will be my memory of this season.

Also, does anybody else find it pathetic that a cast member of an HBO Show is portraying herself in another HBO Show? How pathetic is that? Apparently Jami-Lynn Sigler's career has hit a dead end.

"Hi there Turtle, remember me in Homie Spumoni?"

Pathetic: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0797464/

The hate is strong in this one.

Shannon Elizabeth's ex fits the bill. Jamie-lynn's ex also wasnt exactly a hunk. Also KFed with Britney, who at the time was one of the biggest stars on the planet and she slums it with a backup dancers with 3 kids by his babymama. And before you say Britney's crazy, well yes, but you're talking about star performers - which puts them all in the upper echelon of crazy for all women.
 
I think the show will skip the filming of the Scorcese flick. We'll pick up at it's release and Vince's career taking off - maybe talk of an Oscar.

Holy #@$%...thats where I remembered her from...nice job with that one !!!
 
Don't kid yourself it was a terrible season. Nothing has changed since the last season. Vince's career is still in the balance. E hasn't done much.

What they should have done is ended it with Vince firing E. Next season should take place two years later and they are estranged. E is really successful and Vince continues to struggle. That way they can recenter the show around E. Because the main problem of the show is Vince is a dud. Maybe E and Ari are doing great business together and Vince is left out in the cold. Johnny is doing well to. Turtle is with Jamie-Lynn. Everything is flipped. Vince is the outsider.

The show has to change a bit if it going to keep on going. You can't have the same season over and over. I'll watch it no matter what but it's lame that they don't take any chances.

 
I didn't like how quickly they wrapped up the turmoil between Vince and E. It wasn't just in one episode, it was in five minutes. And I don't get what Martin Scorsese liked about Vince's acting in those Smokejumpers scenes we saw.

Are you kidding?You don't know many hot women, do you? I would say if I have met 5,000 hot women and their boyfriends, about 4,000 of those boyfriends weren't punching their weight. Women rarely are with men that deserve them. It's one of their best qualities.
 
I love this series but my biggest complaint is that it's only 22-25 minutes long. Just when you start getting into the show, it's over? I was expecting, at least, that the finale would be an hour long? IMO, it hurts the value of the show being so short.

:lmao: They struggled all season trying to get his career back on track.
he was in smokejumpers most of the season. it gets so bad, he leaves and goes back to queens. ari and e can't get people to return phone calls. yet somehow he convinces gus van sant to watch scenes from an unreleased movie. and he likes it so much he recommends vince to martin scorcese. scorcese then hires vince FOR THE LEAD? i could believe him getting a part, but the guy goes from being unable to get an audition/reading to getting a lead? come on.

Not to mention, we're supposed to buy the fact that the reason he wants Vince is due to the scenes he filmed in a movie that got canned because the director didn't like Vince's acting.

Interesting. I think this would be a good idea. Get them back in LA, and back doing what they do best.

:goodposting: the movie is set in NY, maybe scorsese was looking for that "look" and liked what he saw from vince.For what it is worth Dana and the studio head, both indicated they liked vince's work in the movie, but the movie was over budget, and sinking fast. SO, maybe it was enough to restore the aura of vinnie chase - star of the top-grossing movie of all time.

Think both those guys were in the biz plus KFed already had been with another TV star.

Massraider brings a lot of wisdom, but this has to be near the top of that list!(Edited for spelling)

I liked it. It should have been longer but I'll take what I can get. Vince's turnaround wasn't realistic, but if I wanted realism, I would watch a documentary.

I don't think they ever say this in the show. It had the biggest opening weekend of all time. And, Eric has a plaque/poster in his office that has the opening weekend number on it. I don't think they're saying Aquaman outgrossed Titanic or Star Wars or anything.

What?E had Smokejumpers because of the writers. They tried to sell it for half the season with Vince as the lead but no one would take them together. Remember Edward Norton trying to buy it? They thought their only chance of selling the movie and Vince together was for Ari to take the studio head job. Josh Weinstein even tried to backdoor Ari and get Vince a television gig during the middle of the season. Vince didn't get the Smokejumpers role until Dana Gordon became the studio head in episode 9.

this show is afraid to take real chances.. when they even try to get out of their normal element they jump right back into "vince is a star"
 
The season sucked... They should have had Vince REALLY hot rock bottom hard (drugs, booze, broken...the whole True Hollywood Story deal). I was actually hoping that is where they were going with it. Then they could have spent next season building him back into a star.
