The season finale of HBO’S Entourage series delivered in award winning style. Season five ended with Vince and the boys going back to Queens to drown their sorrows in local girls and local spirits. The Queen’s setting brings out what the boy’s are all about with Johnny Drama investing in his own bar. Turtle carrying on the relationship with Jamie –Lynn Sigler over the phone to be caught having phone sex by his mother in his mothers home. With another rejection from a possible movie role from Gus Van Zant, Eric is fired after verbal abuse from Ari and Vince. E show’s resilience by going back to Hollywood alone, and continuing to manage the success of his only client.
The episode could have gone so many different directions leaving a cliffhanger for the long dry spell between Entourage Seasons. Mark Walhberg and writing staff delivered with a last minute swerve that no one saw coming. A visit to Queens from Ari finds Vince and the boys minus E in Johnny Drama’s enjoying the good life. A surprise phone call from the living legend Martin Scorsese brings Vince back from the dead with a starring role in the Modern Great Gatsby. Thanks to Eric’s determination and hard work Vincent Chase is back on the map.
Eric returns to his office to find Vince and the boys bringing the good news to E and welcoming him back into the Entourage. The Season ends with Ari, Vince, Drama, and Turtle going to celebrate walking through LA, once again on top of the world, with not a care in the world. Season Five was a season that had it’s up and downs and at times stayed to long on certain storylines. The Season Finale erased all doubts about the creative direction and original writing for this dynamic Original Series.
Entourage has been picked up for another season which will begin late summer of next year. It will be interesting to see what the show can do with Vince and the boys in a sophisticated setting in New York with a classic like The Great Gatsby. Bring Jamie- Lynn Sigler back next season with appearances from celebrities dropped in throughout the show and you have got a great upcoming season six of the best series on the air. Give Vince a new Hummer, or another new Escalade, a bigger house with views and sexy women in bikinis or less, and you have got a mega hit that leaves the fans screaming for more. The only negative AI have to say about this show, is that it should be an hour long.
