The complete first season of Entourage is astounding. It is a television series that is many people have not heard of because it is played on HBO, which is a channel that not every household has available to them. The series is not rated because it has adult humor, crude language and drug references; but beyond all this it is a very funny comedy. The series is loosely based on the life of Mark Wahlberg. He is a producer and wanted to make a show that talked about him and his friends on their way to fame. It is now being promoted more and more everyday by the media. Entourage has won an Emmy every year since 2006, and has gotten many other awards such as a Golden Globe in 2008. The show many not look appealing to all viewers but everyone should give it a shot. It is almost guaranteed to make you laugh in at least one part of each episode. It's known to be so funny because the guys play pranks on each other, have good senses of humor, and we follow them as they meet girls and live the night life. I recommend for everyone to give this television series a chance. From what I have heard, everyone who watches the show loves it. Since season one Entourage has made five more seasons, and the seventh season should be starting in a few months. It will be interesting to see if more and more people catch on to the show as the seasons keep being made. Entourage really just makes life feel so good even though many people don't have the money like they do; it is nice to see the rich life and how people really can live life to the fullest. It also makes people want to work harder to be able to do the things they do in the show. It personally makes me want to succeed as high as I can in life to be able to have a great life. The show really makes one not take life for granted and live it the best because everyone only lives once.

I love this show,it shows the realities of the business of Hollywood, with a dramatic twist. I love the complexity of characters like Ari and Eric, where Vince is a comforting and well balanced character.

The entourage, and the star whose t'eat they suckle, spend money, do drugs, sleep with hoards of woman (the staple of HBO television), and live high on life. You'd be wrong if you thought such a premise couldn't miss. The situations are contrived, the motivations plod, the conversations are inane. They try to throw in a few ethical dilemmas, but who really cares if a party boy helps his bestest friend instead of padding his pockets? To fool us into thinking Vincent Chase (the pretty face actor actor) really is a big deal, a few "stars" like Jessica Alba pop by to play themselves and say things like "are you coming to the party?," or "call me!," or "congratulations on your new colostomy," or whatever.<BR/><BR/>Jeremy Piven, forgettable, unfunny, untalented, and best known for his John Cusack charity sidekick roles in films, also known for getting mercury poisoning, which got him out of a contract from a Broadway play and instead of going to the hospital, he signed some autographs, hammed it up for some paparazzi, and sped to an all an award after party... and for miraculously gaining a hairline. He shines in this slice of drivel (Jeremy Piven is to John Cusack as Rob Schneider is to Adam Sandler). The fact that Piven is the best thing in this show says a lot about everything else.<BR/><BR/>Other fine actors round out the cast. Kevin Dillon, famous for his roles in "Vampires: Out For Blood" and "Interstate 84" (yeah, I never heard of them either), plays a role well suited for him, a washed up actor in search of a career. Kevin Connolly, best known for his role as a non-speaking rush hour subway riding extra in Rocky V, and Jerry Ferrara, the guy who installed those big subwoofers in my Scion, flesh out the cast. Maybe they should throw in Greg Kinnear and Anne Heche to boost the talent pool. <BR/><BR/>Don't bother with the popcorn because each episode is mercifully only a half hour long. That's as long as a SpongeBob, or Gilligan's Island, or Full House, only far less enlightening. No doubt they shoot a season over a weekend. Your time would be better spent taking a shower, eating a bowl of soup, surfing the internet for woman's shoes, prank calling the local morgue, or sampling the alcohol-laced medicines in the bathroom cabinet.
